Rehab for Reds

Submitted 7 years ago by ActRight Community

A new generation of college-aged students, for whom the Cold War and communism is a distant phenomenon, have had democratic socialism legitimized for them by Bernie Sanders. It is just one short step for this same generation to argue that if socialism is a goal worth fighting for, then perhaps communism too was a worthy endeavor. The millions murdered by Stalin, Mao, Fidel Castro, and the other Communist leaders may simply be something they are not aware of. I would suspect that perhaps only 1 percent of Bernie's supporters have even heard of, let alone read, The Black Book of Communism. Still, it comes as a shock to suddenly find articles in liberal magazines asserting how worthwhile communism was, and expressing sadness and despair at its demise. The historian Paul Kengor writes humorously that the Sanders campaign could mass-produce bumper stickers boldly touting 'Bolsheviks for Bernie' sandwiched between grinning faces of Marx and Lenin and our contemporary products of the American university would shrug and cheer.

After “Ma” and “Da” (and variants thereof), what is the first word uttered by very young children just learning to speak? I checked this with the writer, Paul Theroux, father to Louis and Marcel. He reckons it’s “Why”. But in my experience (I have two sons) the first serious word they utter is “No”. The “Yes” option comes along later. Maybe it’s harder to form, phonetically speaking. But intellectually speaking, “yes” is a bit of a problem. Who wants to be a “yes-man” or “yes-woman”? Isn’t that too much like being a doormat?

Bronze Plaques Matter

Submitted 7 years ago by ActRight Community

New Orleans — Robert E. Lee lost again. The statue of the Confederate Army’s general in chief vanished Friday from atop a 60-foot-tall column in the middle of Lee Circle. This work is the fourth of four Confederate-oriented statues that the city of New Orleans has removed in recent weeks, amid considerable and well-deserved controversy. During my annual pilgrimage to the Crescent City early this month, I saw Lee rise above well-tended grounds, including grass and flowers, although the concrete at his monument’s base was badly broken ...
