“The goal of socialism is communism.” Lenin
Banjamin Mann
The implementation of a socialist system, collectivization, and a centrally planned economy is supposed to eventually lead to a true classless stateless communist society.
Unfortunately that pesky thing called human nature and it’s unyielding bloodlust for power leads to the same powerful hierarchy that they loathe about western civilization. Only it’s centralized to one party and most times, one person. Because there will always be dissent, violence and revolution go hand in hand.
@@brosephh7130 the withered state starting tomorrow...
Well, Hitler was a kind of socialist and he definetly didn't support Communism.
Temer1ty .....are you so stupid to actually think I don’t know what I said “means”?......It’s ok. Be a moron.
Which has never been tried.
"Give me a child till he's 7 and he'll be a comminist for life" - Stalin
-- I guess Stalin realised the importance of 'education', i.e. indoctrination through state education.
Fortunately he was wrong. I am also from formal comunist country and I can tell that in the 70s , 80s only a small group of fools bevieved in comunism, despite beeing brainwashed from early childhood. Comunist regime is about to force people to pretend to believe in this idiotic ideology.
@@calebblood872 yeah but here in the states there are a lot of people my age and a little older n younger who are staunch supporters of democratic socialism and communism, it sucks because they will not listen to another's beliefs without arguement or venom, they bring up past grievances on other cultures as if they were really bad things that humans don't normally like to do such as conquest and acquisition of resources for the betterment of said persons society. They dont realise the west has benefited the world on a global scale and will continue to do so through various means if it doesn't fall to the east or middle
@@justinallen2408 Wait, Democratic socialism is a western concept and Marx is in the western great books cannon.
@@calebblood872 ...but the influence of the former fools before the time you're refferring to is affecting all following generations till this day for i don't know how many generations to come
You can’t even get a quote right. Lenin said something similar.
I'm a millennial and I don't support communism in any form.
Unfortunately, you, yourself is a minority.
@@Centrifugal- that is not true at all. I even live in one of these so called socialist countries (Denmark) and I know no one that wants communism.
@@TheBarser ok just because you don't know anyone, does that mean it doesn't exist???
@@TheBarser Denmark isn't absolute socialist is it???
@@Centrifugal- I didn't say it doesn't exist. I just never meet anyone that wants communism. I meet people who wants a few more social reforms, but not full on communism. Like I take it you guys are from USA? Wanting free healthcare is not communism, which is what I take most young people are into.
I can’t speak freely. I’m afraid to even quote a fact, in fear that I might get fired or crucified. I work at a high school and I am the only conservative, afraid of getting fired for my religious or political believes.
I don't blame you. My old high school football coach got fired for his religious beliefs because he was catholic and criticized a catholic school they were playing because of how they recruited and ran their school
Same here. Hang in there.
Maybe it's because your "facts" don't actually align with reality
@@sam7559 or maybe it’s not my facts that are the problem. Maybe it’s just how sensitive millennials have made us with the new generation of pussyfication and the feeling police. I could say more, but your feelings will get hurt and trigger you. We all know how triggered people on the internet have the feeling police censor them. Violating their 1st amendment right to free speech.
If you’re too scared to be a high school teacher why not get a job that’s less stressful for you?
I’m 37. I can’t believe it either. Looks like history is doomed to repeat itself out of ignorance and hubris...
There is a saying. " all it takes for evil to succeed is for a good man to turn a blind eye"
I'm already seeing the early signs leading to the persecutions that we see in history. Sad, indeed.
fynes leigh what kind of drugs are you on its like you want to be witness to mass human suffering.
Like I said us early Millennials who grew up in the 80s and 90s because they changed the generation people who are between the ages of 33 to 41 were considered Gen Y now we're considered millennials and xennials we are the ones with reason it's the younger Millennials or gen Z that is pro socialism
If by the history of communism you're referring to Marx and Engels writing the communist manifesto, then I don't recall anything else. Because the USSR was not communist, China is and was not communist, North Korea is not communist, no nations are communist. All of this is propaganda my friend, and everyone in this comment section believes the same misconception.
I am a millennial and I remember in high school seeing a lot of pictures and films of nazis killing Jews and the camps. I don’t remember leaning anything about communism other than a brief explanation of the Cold War.
Communism killed much more people than Nazism.
Marxist teachers.
The jews in tented communism, karl marx, leon trotsky, stalin and 90% of the first communist government were all jewish.
may be you should go on line and look up old movies we watched in school in the 70s. about the USSR. get a perspective on it.... on the side..we had air raid drills up to about 1972 in our school .3rd grade for me.....
@@Babylon3232 Stalin wasn't a Jew.
Well, the sad thing is that I am in China hoping to leave for the United States while you guys especially the young people have no idea what a great nation they are living in and trying to make it like China
Love & encouragement to you, Nate Zhang. You are so right. It's just amazing, how people can be programmed to NOT see. That starts when we're convinced we already know something. Emptiness is the way, bringing clarity. The bottom line is that we must get out of our own way. LOL. Most don't yet see this.

This video could be very short answer the question like this, “Poor parenting”.
They've been brainwashed through ideological subversion. KGB defector Yuri Bezmenov explained this 40 years ago. Watch it here: czcams.com/video/zeMZGGQ0ERk/video.html&
My thoughts, exactly!
EXACTLY!
fynes leigh your statement makes you sound like a dumb person trying really hard to sound smart.
Poor parenting is not a good answer. See this: To save you 30 mins, just watch this video first 15 mins (KGB defector talk about communism): In 1984, the official answer was already given in USA by this gentleman who came from KGB: czcams.com/video/Y9TviIuXPSE/video.html
I’m a millenial and it’s really hard to even speak with other millenials just because they think they are right but with no argument whatsoever
BigCat6906 gen y is millenial
Ask your millennial friends if they are aware of how many people have been killed and/or murdered by communists and socialists. They must be on guard to not become what Lenin termed as "useful idiots".
@@ozu2647 gen y is millennial. Before millennial existed marketers were calling them gen y. Xennial is tail end of Gen X and beginning of Gen Y. I wish it were more clear like cutting up millennials and Gen X and having a separate group from 75-85 called xennial or some shit, but it's not that clear. Gen X, Gen Y, Gen Z were already conceived concepts before millennial or xennial even came around though. As for thinking they are right, isn't that pretty much most people everywhere and always?
@@ktcarl is it a contest. Do you have a number of how many deaths occurred under capitalist regimes? I'd bet it has more to do with people trying to retain their authority, standing and material assets then the objective economical models themselves.
@Bob Gnisir Yeah, that never happened in the US to people who acted against slavery in the 1800s. No one was ever executed by the capitalist state. You wanna see propaganda, it is called commercial marketing now.
I'm a millennial and i never supported communism at all. Still don't.
You're smarter than most your age.
@@kmacradio thanks man! I just can't stand the idea of it.
Same here Davida, I simply cannot understand aside from what Dennis has already explained in this video as to why Millennials support communism. It's almost as if they support it just for the sake of being different & going against the 'system' as they refer it.
Most millennials are leftist and support Socialism but do not realize it's the same as communism
Davida Ward
Same here.
He is exactly right. We needcto revamp elementary, secondary and collegiate education.
SUPER YES!!!!!
But I hope we are not to late.
Hell! Why even have education? Let's just all get high on drugs. That's enough to keep this planet running on all cylinders.
State schools would never tell you anything that is anti-state. I swear to god conservatives are the easiest people to laugh at
We need to overhaul the education system. Our children have been brainwashed! Thanks to Hollywood and the mainstream media as well. The virus has exposed what the teachers have been doing! Hope we get change asap!
Nope. They got too much on their hands as it is, trying to teach the little kids how to choose their gender.
It needs to be mandatory that every high school have a course on Twentieth century history, SAT tests should include questions about countries with gulags, totalitarianism, and secret police.
"....gulags, totalitarianism, and secret police..."
So - Guantanamo Bay, building a wall around the country, and Homeland Security? Or do you think those things only happen away from the US?
@@BenjWarrant Guantanamo Bay doesn't even remotely compare to the Soviet gulags. Unless you want schools to stop talking about the Holocaust aswell?
and not to mention south american dictators, overpopulation, religious terrorism and so on.
Sorry - no tests anymore. Hurts a furry's feelings. Safe Space.
Should they also be taught about the genocide of the Native Americans, who were put in concentration camps, euphemistically called "reservations"? (Hitler was a fan of our reservations). Should they be taught that most of the hard labor that built the US into a world power was done by black slaves? As far as gulags, should students be taught that "the land of the free" now has the highest per capita incarceration rate of any nation in the world?
The fact they haven't had to experience any violence during their lifetime probably has a lot to do with these ideologies creeping back into the mainstream .
I have experienced violence. Extreme violence. So have 90% of my friends. Don't let the media convince you that the hipster liberal millenial stereotype is actually what most of us are like.
WHAT!? They have experienced violence in thousands of hours of video games fighting zombies, monsters, and aliens!!! How dare you!!
Everyone has experienced violence. The measure of the scale can be different.
@@aperta7525 If u think words can result in violence, I will have to disagree .
@@donja9666 There is such a thing as verbal, psychological, emotional, physical, financial, social, and spiritual abuse. There is PTSD and C-PTSD. But that was actually not what I was referring to.
I was referring to how everyone has experienced violence because of Sin and what it has done to the human nature.
As to the notion that words cause violence? No, but they can certainly provoke it. Contempt destroys relationships. The 5 senses but especially the eyes and ears are gateways for either sanctification/light or evil/darkness - Man (inclusively) owes due diligence to God and neighbor to vigilantly maintain custody of the mind and heart, tongue, and irascible passions and concupiscent appetites. Every word communicated, be it spoken or written, gifts the world and those inhabiting it with a light of purification toward sanctification, or a false light for its desecration toward condemnation - a blessing, or a curse.
The abundance of what fills the heart is what the mouth speaks.
And only those who live most frivolously and selfishly would say that words don't matter and have no power to effect change.
(Disclaimer: No, I am not referring to "magical incantations" and other delusional be-all pursuits of vicious people - power, wealth, fame, honors, pleasure.)
I've taught an occasional community college class. I'm always deeply stunned by the ignorance of HS grads: they have NO idea of ANYTHING about the Soviet Union. No idea whatever. This scares me.
Okay so they don't know about Russia. But I don't know about the USA either. I don't know whose vice president is. They don't know who their congressman is, the speaker of the House, are the majority leader of the Senate.I might have some idea now if they're paying attention to the impeachment that's going on. But ask them about a rapper, or singer?
i'm 75 and this government scares me way more than Russian government. We are truly living in a nite mare with "leaders " that are insane.
@@dufus2273 The Democrats are just as scary as Nazism
When I was in we had Government classes. I'm thinking they did away with that for gender studies...
@@dufus2273 What exactly scares you about it? Trump's been nothing but good for the country. Prove me wrong.
They no longer teach History or geography in school. I have to educate my own kids in this area. They had trouble pointing to Italy on the map.
Jesus, I remember watching Americans struggling to find Vietnam on a map in the 70s. Nothing new there. I very much doubt that history and geography are not taught in all American schools.
That's true. Not only in the USA. I'm from South Africa, they discontinued history and geography in high school. My class was the last to learn History and geography. Thinking about it now, History students were considered rebellious because we understood our rights and what happens when rights are denied to individuals.
Marxist ideology is spreading wearing the mask of compassion
i heard that they teach cursive anymore🤣
@@treasure_adventures well said. Keep yourself prepared, always.
Seriously............. 😬
My grandparents and my parents fled from Khmer Rouge. My eldest uncle was killed by Khmer Rouge.
These millennials have no idea how evil it was.
If your family came from 100 miles further East they could well have been killed because of American military insurgency into Vietnam. If it hadn't been for American insurgency into Vietnam and interference in 'French Indo-China' generally, the Khmer Rouge might very well have never gained traction. (I'm sorry to read of what actually happened to your family, though.)
They will when China drops an abomb on us.
Our schools need a speaking network of survivors to expose children to Communism the way Holocaust survivors used to come to our schools and teach us about the Holocaust. See if your relatives can start one!
@@godblessamerica9356 There has never been a communist state on this planet. There have been a handful that _claimed_ to be communist, but they weren't.
@@BenjWarrant Keep California dreamin', with Great Uncle Karl. Hope you don't wake up in Walter Ciszek's nightmare.
I'm a freshmen in college and yeah I learned in high school "how bad america and white people are" and i didnt even learn anything about communism or the USSR. it's crazy:/
First you need to differentiate between communism and socialism; you could define the UDSSR as a try of socialism (which I would argue against) but it wasn't even near to the idea of communism. Its funny how scared people are of an ideology, they never touched a single primary source of. I'm surely not a fan of socialism and communism, same as capitalism, is just an ideological utopia which can never exist but you should at least read what the founders of those ideology wrote in their own words before you condemn their ideas. Which in fact, both sides do: as little as Marx ideas had to do with any form of so called "socialism" (UDSSR, DDR, Venezuela etc.), as little has anything today to do with "neoliberalism". Pretty much every economic theory is based on an idealised picture of human beings, which isn't compatible with reality and so their ideas are foredoomed from the beginning.
Instead of learning stupid mathematical formulas in basic economics at college, the should "force" students to read at least 20 basic economic books of different directions and even this would just touch the surface; because even Marx (at least in case of socialism; you could make an argument against communism) and Hayek (same as Smith, Mises, Friedman etc.) argued on the same assumption of shortage, which isn't true in parts of the economy anymore but neither of them thought about it, not to mention came up with a solution. I only know a handful of economics who are thinking about this and these are not the guys you see in media that often.
@@anotherpov5413 TLDR
@@anotherpov5413 here is the difference between communism and socialism
Communism doesn't exist, it's a theory that as never actually been put into practice but sold as if it is a reality.
Socialism is the vehicle to communism but the socialists never relinquish their power.
This is all you need to know, everything else is just BS.
I mean that's probably because you live in the US and the USSR no longer exists, so you're gonna spend far more time scrutinizing your own country's flaws than those of a foreign country that no longer exists. Also, what class was this? Because depending on the class and context taking about America's flaws is totally legitimate.
anotherPOV what is UDSSR??? Where did you get that abbreviation?
I was born in Eastern Europe, and immigrated to Canada at the age of 11. Communism sounds like a perfect utopia but in reality it is a horrible oppressive and unproductive system. To all you millennials out there that think this is a great idea talk to anyone that was lucky enough to escape any of these countries and they will shock you with their experiences.
Eastern Europe was not communist it was that some countries were socialists and other lile romania and albania were state capitalist
@@vladimirlenin665 Nonsense!.....
Q
@@vladimirlenin665 I'm not surprised at what you said at all. You started all of this horsecrap anyway.
The largest failure of the education system was telling people that they must have a college education. When 80% of college graduates never work a single day in their majors, that means that they learn their actual jobs the same way as a high school graduate does. And yet they lost at least 4 years to these high school graduates and end up working for them and carry a staggering tuition bill. People like Obama who said that everyone should go to college are themselves lovers. If you believe that Obama made his fortune honestly I'm sure you also believe in the tooth fairy. Is that someone you want to emulate? Does one person in this entire world respect Biden. He has done nothing and never will. At some point you will realize that most productive people learned it from scratch from other people that did so themselves.
I work with 2 millennials. I don’t plan on staying at that job. They are thrilled to be underpaid in our position. 😳 Our job couldn’t be crappier! Their time off they spend hours and days, building and drawing lawns in video games, but they have no experience building anything with their hands and aren’t interested in trying. I just can’t relate!
Try harder.
I don't blame you!
There's nothing quite like experiencing the real world with your five senses that God gave you!
Seems like you lack gratitude.
Have you ever considered that this is because building something in video games =/= building something in real life? Just, maybe?
Can you taste one of the vegetables you grow in a virtual garden? Is a virtual poop as satisfying as a good one on a real toilet?

@@iarthur3211 Betsy DeVos School Choice-The Kiss of Death...
Do not allow ‘30 pieces of silver’ to be used to betray our country. Choice is the kiss of death. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos is serving up America’s kids on a tax-credit scholarship platter. The future of the Republic hangs on the edge of political upheaval. Tax-Credit Scholarships are “the Trojan horse” of today. (Iserbyt). The vote for Socialism is near. The movement toward a managed economy is accelerating with the loss of sovereignty at the federal, state, and local government levels. Elected officials will be pushed out leaving only unelected councils. States’ rights will be shattered. No one will realize the havoc this will cause to our nation until it is too late.
Betsy DeVos’s mantra of freedom are words that have no meaning. They are lies.
Representative government will be destroyed by eliminating your locally elected representatives.
Title I Schoolwide benefits ALL children not just poor children.
Federal Tax-Credit Scholarship money goes directly to parental ESA’s eliminating states’ rights to control the budget.
Property rights will be revamped by redistributing tax money from wealthy school districts.
Your tax money follows a child directly into other schools or to other school districts that will regionalize your tax base called Title I supplement not supplant.
Children will be psychoanalyzed and conditioned toward global citizenship.
Tax free money for business and industry to access our children as a commodity will have a 100% tax write-off that is staggering.
This vision will destabilize education, destabilize the equity in your property, regionalize your tax base, and collapse the public school system in favor of Common Core, CHOICE, and charter schools forced on ALL schools.
This plan will ultimately control private and religious schools, day care centers, home schools, and charter schools creating a federal taskmaster (ombudsman) for all schools when the Tax-Credit Choice Scholarships are passed in the budget.
Betsy’s plan is to collapse Blaine Amendment bans on public funding of religious institutions while she welcomes religious schools with open arms enabling them to accept public money but controlled by the federal government.
Your neighborhood school will be turned into a charter school under a charter management system once our tax system is regionalized. All teachers will be hired from the state level since elected school board members would be removed from their positions when public schools fail financially and they are forced to match 50% of funding for all scholarship children who enroll in other schools, school districts, or another state.

What is "the preffered pronoun"? What does that even mean?
@@richardseibert1362 What you socialist should be focusing on is how to deal with the next two term Republican replacing Donald Trump in 2024. By that time there will be at least a 7-2 conservative majority on the Supreme Court, Federal law will have dissolved sanctuary cities, our borders will be secure, mass deportations will be happening, media (both social and otherwise) held accountable and education will replace indoctrination. It's going to be laughable watching the Democratic Party become so unhinged during the next nine months they’ll be the biases for a network sitcom. Remember the Whigs? Neither does anyone else.
Let me summarize my grade school experience (2003-2016):
-English: we read a disproportionate amount of literature about slavery and segregation.
-Science: we learned that humans were singularly responsible for destroying the planet.
-History: learning about American history was synonymous with learning about societal racism.
-Math: we learned why "strong independent women" needed to go into STEM.
-Humanities: we spent the least amount of time possible studying Western Civilization.
-Economics: we spent a disproportionate amount of time studying Keynesian (government interventionist) policy.
-Civics: we learned that politics was about "who gets what" and how minority voters were being "suppressed" with voter ID policy.
Need I go on? The real indoctrination does not take place in universities; college is just the cherry on top. Young people are leftists because they are indoctrinated to be leftists beginning in Kindergarten.
Cj R that is what happens when democrat teachers pay for unions that give huge donations to the democrat party. By paying for public school you are indirectly funding the democrat party.
I’m thankful that my son has always been in private catholic schools. My son is a Christian conservative with morals and intelligence. ✝️🇺🇸
You are absolutely right on the Science part. Like Goddamn right the teach can't go one day without saying We are destroying the eco system.
@@exodusfivesixfivesix8050 ...The problem seems to lie in who hires these teachers. And when you find out who that is, then the problem is whoever they are. Who then hired them? Because they are now the problem. Work your way up the chain to the point. Start getting rid of those points and the trickle-down effect will then solve itself and we can get back to teaching our kids what is really important.
@@PamelaBoyer Then he has to fight the outside of school. Cultural decay directing morality.
"Live Free or Die" is New Hampshire's state motto, so it should be their license plates that bear the phrase.
Back in the late 1960s I attended a party with mostly engineering graduate students and professors. No one was doing drugs, but drinking a lot of beer and having serious discussions. One professor did something I have never heard before - he actually defended the concept of the Berlin wall on purely moral grounds. At one point he said "You can compare two countries with different governments - who are you to decide that one form of government is better than the other? That is a very complicated subject." One of the students said no, it is not complicated. "All you have to do is compare the number of people trying to get in with the people trying to get out." After more than 50 years, I can find no fault with this logic.
Was in high school from 2009-2013 and I never once heard anything about the gulags. People my age do not know what they were unless they sought out information that I have.
They are surgically attatched to their phones GOOGLE IT
They who ignore history are doomed to repeat it.
How fitting that that saying was on a sign hanging above Jim Jones's body after he murdered all of his followers with Cyanide laced kool-aid back in 1978. For those that don't know, his cult was heavily communist-leaning. Let that sink in.
I am only 18 and I just graduated high school . I work in Manufacturing as a welder and I can't even fathom how I would love my country or even be an American if the country was Communist, or now Marxist with BLM . The first thing I'll do is vote so hard to stop that from happening if that doesn't work well we might need a new revolution liberty must live or else the basic human rights guaranteed by God protected by government will be gone forever.
The fact that you believe communism abolishes human rights just proves the ignorance of people nowadays and how they have been affected by propaganda which has literally changed the definition of communism, into something evil.
@@dudicorn6503 I think you got it the wrong way around. It's pro-communist propaganda that's the problem nowadays.

Yep, private schools and home schooling are much better than public education. In public schools and colleges the kids are getting an indoctrination instead of education. These Commie loving millennials are products of the Educational Industrial Complex.

Just letting y'all know, I am 20 years old, college educated and I am staunchly against socialism/communism, as are many people close to me. We're quiet - normal, educated people like us aren't rioting in the streets or being social media advocates, but we are here with you. I am great friends with a man I met at work in his fifties who escaped Cuba in the 1980's during the Castro regime. I think speaking to someone who escaped a communist country is an incredibly enlightening thing. But also... so is growing up and becoming an adult. It's why a lot of young folks tend to shift away from the left over time as they get older.
Bob Builder great, glad to have you on the right. Unfortunately, kids aren’t being forced to grow up or move away from that home.
@@KM-zu9we If you have to call the cops to kick your own kid out of the house it doesn't say much for your parenting skills. However, you'd be even a worse parent if you didn't.
I think this is spot on. When kids come out of school they are at the bottom of the ladder, and as they work themselves up they realise that hard work is what improves your life, rather than resentment and protesting at society! Be useful to society and you will always be valued

@@EFChartley Yeah I know this is true but some things need to be changed at a societal level such as school. It's become so mandatory that it's basically degraded into a prison for children.

It's sad really. And even worse young Cubans like myself are also embracing this. The Cuban conservative generation is dying out, unacceptable the future is bleak.
At least in Cuba a growing number of young Cubans are unhappy with the regime. Oddly enough, much of the government's support comes from the older folks who were around at the time before many of the revolution's effects took place. Odd...

Loved this! I'm a millennial..never went to college and GLAD. I have been saying for a while that I felt my school years after elementary was a waste of time.-it was considered a good school too. I learned more in my past 10 years after highschool. Looking back it was almost all useless. Thought it was just me, but sad to see this is a major problem
That's an awesome comment that gives many of us old folks hope. So many young ones are just not seeing through the programmed daze brought on by their "education." I have 4 university degrees & don't think that much of them, either. Even in earlier decades, the programming was there, just not so in-your-face as it is, now.
Those supposedly not educated - those not going to college - will likely be better off than the programmed ones with their degrees. Will close with a favorite quote - let the 3rd line, especially, sink in, as our solution is actually much simpler than most realize:
_“To know that you do not know is the best._
_To think you know when you do not is a disease._
_Recognizing this disease as a disease is to be free of it.”_

What's strange is I don't know anyone over the age of 20 who says Communism works. We are talking about a relatively small group of people making a lot of noise. This November, the majority must be heard. It is getting more and more out of control out there.
Everyone has got to vote. Every single person, well aside from the democrats 😂 they don't need to, they have 90 million automatic votes coming
1/3 is a minority but really big
It’s a depressing amount of people, at least on the internet, who defend socialism as if they know something that nobody else does.
@@sandoncrowder7839 As if you know what socialism is better than the people that you are talking about
I recently learned in a talk with a Bernie Sanders supporter that they coin their version of "socialism"/ "democratic socialism" as different from "communism". That definition-misdirection name game is the game we are losing at
Sure, you get one mob rule revolutionary vote- democracy. Then the same politicians and olegarks that are screwing us presently, continue to do so with enough power to not need a second vote-socialism.
Bernie lies to his followers either on purpose, or out of ignorance. He keeps claiming that Denmark is socialist - it's not it is a market economy which is totally different than socialism.
Yes, instead of the state seizing ownership of means of production, they instead seize the income from those who produce. It’s just communism in a different package. It’s allowing private innovation and then seizing the benefits and controlling the distribution.
A rose by any other name, still smells like a rose.

I am a millennial. I was lucky to have a history teacher in 10th grade to really teach us about WW2 and the cold war. I have disliked nazism and communism since 10th grade after learning about the atrocities.
"Nazism"? The actual name of the Nazis was "The German Worker's SOCIALIST Party". Did your 10th grade teacher inform you of that?
@@silvernova354 I know what it is actually called. It is a Fascist movement and known to us as The Nazi Party. In Germany, yes it was referred to as The National Socialist German Workers' Party.
Silver Nova although it was called the “national socialist German workers party” is was not actually socialist because hitler still wanted to keep private businesses and hitler and the Nazi party was funded by wealthy businessmen. In fact hitler HATED Marxism and killed anybody that read the communist manifesto and he also insisted on protecting private property. Btw North Korea calls themselves a Democratic republic when it is neither a democracy nor a republic.
@@Jacob-yg8lg "Still wanted to keep private business"
The economy of Germany was at the hands of the Government (the NAZI party). You can't have private business and a totalitarian state at the same time, that's impossible.
By the way, Karl Marx hated Jews and he was a NAZI too. "On the Jewish Question" is a book that he wrote in 1843 and there are examples of his antisemitism/racism.
Hitler embraced socialism but he wanted a different form of socialism . For Hitler, Marx was wrong.

@@sahaiel You're lucky.
The real question should be, why do Millennials support socialism? Because socialism and communism are not the same thing. And the answer to that question is that it makes life a lot better for people in Scandinavia. So the entire premise of this question and your answer is wrong.
@@adayinforever younger people havent contributed a lot (yet), therefore they dont care as much if tax money is distributed to people who dont or didnt contribute enough, or at all. Because they are in the same situation. Its quite straightforward. They think they would only gain by socialism, as they would get a lot of staff for 'free' - that others worked for -, while they barely put in anything. So yes, socialism is ideal for young people.

I live in a gentrified area in a medium size city in NY. My home is a historic brownstone surrounded by homes of same or more beauty. I am horrified by the living conditions of people living just a quarter of a mile from me, in a wealthy country such as the US, many of them working one or two menial paying jobs. I know this because I speak with them daily. It is time for labor to demand fair pay from corporations such as Amazon and Wal-Mart. The time is now. I am now retired from a lucrative paying job and spend all my time as an organizer obtaining justice for the poor. It is not communism and it is not socialism.

How do you convince someone when they dismiss all of it as, “not real socialism”
Nothing is free.
There is always a sacrifice to every decision human beings make.
What do you *think* socialism sacrifices?
What does socialism *really* sacrifice?
If you do not know or do not care to know, you should not stoop so low as to presume upon the privilege extended to you of voting in this country - or in any country for that matter.
Jordan Peterson would have something to say about this.
@John Taylor It's not right to project your assumptions onto another person's character. I was friends with an outspoken individual in this sort of crowd who used the "not real [...]" point, and he came - not necessarily by argument between he and I, but he did - to recognize how fatally flawed Communism is.
Coming to the Truth about anything (Truth does not effect symptoms of PTSD, mind you) is by the grace of God in His Mercy. Period. Different people from the same background can study the same things and have all the same privileges and liberties, and one may see the light while the other stays where they are. It's all and always the mystery of God's grace.
Jay, encourage them to always seek the Truth about anything and everything. I assume this person is very atheistically inclined. But they must stay true to seeking the Truth however they understand it.
You've hit upon one innate problem. They don't need to seek "the Truth" because they already have "their truth" - in fact, they often deny that there even is "the Truth".
This underlying belief is just one of a series of flawed premises that leads them inevitably to horribly wrong conclusions.

In 2015, Vermont added a Latin motto, “Stella quarta decima fulgeat,” or, “May the 14th star shine bright.”

@@jamesonbornholdt7302 so you're considered gen Z
Agree, but why and how did it get like this? From what I've researched it's been an engineered decline of our society, starting with the educational system that has been infiltrated by communists/Marxists since the 20s or 30s when the German communists from the Frankfurt School came here with their agenda to do just that. Their theory was that a small amount of them would teach/radicalize at our universities and their students would go on to teach/radicalize even more, multiplying each generation and getting their cultural marxism/political correctness to take root like a disease until the time we were so transformed socially that we'd be ready for real communism. They played the long game, and knew they'd probably never be alive to see it, but they were patient. And in case others claim it a conspiracy theory, it's documented. Just read up about the Frankfurt School

@Jason A lot of people running for president want to do away with the Constitution.
Millennials support communism because they simply don’t know any better. As a mother of three millennials I can say that their public school education was so lacking that there are just huge gaps in subjects we aging baby boomers take for granted. Liberals are teaching our children trash, watered down history and and have smeared and bad mouthed US history and culture. My daughter had a professor (women’s studies- total BS course!) that Catholic women are the most repressed group of any religious group! I said, is there anything that your grandmother and I cannot say or do? Is anyone dictating how we dress? Do we need a man’s permission to travel or cover ourselves and walk around like a ghost with our heads covered? I bet if I asked my son who Stalin was that he would not be able to answer correctly.
Catholic women are the most repressed group of any religious group... Wow that's truly bizarre. As a catholic woman, I'm wondering what the professors argument for that theory is
Renee Junette you shouldve just homeschooled your kids smh
YOU are responsible for not filling in the "gaps"! Parents are the MOST INFLUENTIAL teachers a child or youngster will ever be exposed to! It is YOUR MAJOR RESPONSIBILITY as a parent! Absolutely nothing except their physical well-being is more important, and then just barely! DO IT NOW! As long as you are alive you are responsible.
Many people in my class don't even know what state is north of them and many can't do basic math plus most of them don't understand anything about history(high school).
My schooling was 1960s-70s and in History and Social Studies, Communism was definitely discussed but I wouldn't say that even then it was in-depth. That said, there was a lot of knowledge and information that we all shared in common from our parents and just general awareness of what happens in the world. By the time we heard about it in school, most of us already had a fair idea of what that was all about. Fast forward to 2002. I found myself having to learn a new line of work OJT. I get paired with a kid who was 23 at the time and about 40 years old now. He had a tattoo on his shoulder of a man running with a hatchet in his hand. This was a culture thing amongst young folks for a while. Related to a pair of white rappers I believe. The face on the tattoo was distinct and could not be mistaken for anyone else. It was Vladimir Lenin. I asked him if he knew who the face was and he replied he had no clue. He didn't know who Lenin was and even less of what he represented. Somewhere there are other old people like myself laughing to themselves about that kid's tattoo.
Are you saying that auto is the main star of the show?
He does demonstrate to us on a regular basis how to enjoy life.
Which is an easy thing to forget in crazy times like this.
Thank you Otto.
For showing us the way.
Thank you Mr Falker for being an excellent sidekick to Otto.

Excuse me millienial here and i am opposed to communism on an extreme stance
I’m a Millennial, and I don’t support Communism. However, there are things older Conservatives need to understand. A.) Millennials aren’t young college kids anymore. The oldest are turning 40 in 2020, and most of the generation are in their 30’s, and have been paying taxes and bills for a while.
B.) From kindergarten to 12th grade, we’ve been brainwashed to go to college. Universities get to charge whatever they want, and they know they will get the money because the students have been told since kindergarten that they HAVE to get a degree and the Feds keep giving kids who don’t really understand the full concept, loans that those degrees will never get said kids into job that will ever generate the money to pay them off very easily. And then on top if that, housing has never been more expensive. Where are the starter homes? Where are the inexpensive apartments? Where are the starter homes and inexpensive apartments in a reasonable location to quality work that will still generate the money to pay for such things?
If you were a middle aged person trying to raise a family, but struggling with massive amounts of debt and not able to or barley able to pay basic bills connected to living, and some politician came along and said they’d make it all go away if you voted for them, what do you expect most people would do? Conservatives need to do better than lecture and ridicule if we are going to stay a Socialist free country.
As a fellow millennial, yes. What he said. Our generation has been severely mischaracterized without any effort to understand our circumstances. It has become a very tired stereotype.
All those things disappeared because of Democrats. Think about it. Where are the affordable homes? Well, the prices of homes got inflated because of the Democrats push led by Barney Frank to expand Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and the Democrats policy to revoke banking powers from banks that didn't make subprime loans. Thus, you had a huge run up in real estate prices. Then, Obama, spent close to a $1 trillion so that housing prices stay inflated when he tried to bail out all these people who purchased homes with mortgages they couldn't pay off, thus keeping housing prices inflated. They didn't correct enough to meet market forces. Then you have these Democrats wanting a $15 minimum wage. Well, now people making more money means they have more money for rent which also keeps rent prices high. All the while, it makes everything less affordable for those on fixed income such as social security, disability, or welfare. I know that since 2014 in NYC when they started incrementally raising the minimum wage to $15 in 2019, I know my cost of living has increased about 40% in those short 5 years, and I don't spend money on anything new than what I spent money on back in 2014. I went to see episode 7 in 2015 and it cost me $16.99 and when I saw episode 9, the price was $28.99 in the same theater which is due to minimum wage increases.
And Democrats lie about giving free money. How are they going to pay for it? Think about the cost of these programs. If add up the total wealth of all the billionaires in America, it only adds up to a fraction of these costs. Their total wealth is $2.9 trillion. So even if you take everything away from from and they are all left with $0, that is $2.9 trillion. So in the example of medicare for all, how is $2.9 trillion going to pay for it. The lowest estimate is about $3 trillion a year claimed by Bernie Sanders, but the average estimate by economists is close to $5 trillion a year. So how is taxing the billionaires even at 100% going to pay for medicare for all when it can't even pay for one year of the program? Well, to pay for it, your taxes will need to go up to 70, 80, 90% And if you are paying those tax rates, who is going to pay for free colleges? The billionaires all have $0 now since you taxed them at 100%. So are you now willing to pay 99% in taxes and then pay your state and local taxes taking it above 100%? And then add in these programs like the Green New Deal. Where is the money going to come for that? Take away everyone's houses and everyone's cars, and everyone's computers and sell them to foreigners since no Americans would have any money left?
Jay J
Bernie Sanders talks about Swedish Socialism. In fact in the late 1980’s Sweden almost collapsed financially under a plan that Sanders wants to implement here. Take a closer look.
Sanders would cause socioeconomic collapse here in the United States.
And if you look into his background he has definite leanings towards a Communist style of government. To him big centralized government and the destruction of privatization is a high priority for him. It’s an easy sell when you’re using emotional rhetoric that promises a free lunch. In reality, that lunch plate becomes empty pretty fast. Read history, do the math.
@@machia0705 It is a lie used by Sanders to get people to accept socialism. He tricks people into thinking social programs is socialism. Socialism is the government control of the means of production. And yes, he does definitely adhere to this principle. You can even see his staffers want more of Soviet Union state style run socialist government where undercover videos caught them saying conservatives (or basically anyone who doesn't agree with them) be either be imprisoned for reeducation or executed. And then you also see another staffer saying we can let property owners keep their homes for now because they want to gradually bring it in where the government owns everything. And who are the people who succeed in socialism? Only those in government because they own everything. That is why Putin is the wealthiest man on the planet (with some estimates having his net worth as high as $1 trillion) because he seized for himself everything the former Soviet Union government owned.

Ultimately the brainwashing in learning institutions by Leftists has crippled critical thought. And with Political Correctness guiding speech, it’s all about thought control. So in summary sheep are being led to slaughter by emotional rhetoric. This phenomenon has happened before in history. Any thoughts on how to reach the masses to take another look at things ?

Kill Team Charlie cope. even if regression exists there is still a net progress.
I’m so glad I made it to retirement. The worst part of my job was working with young people. I was a printer and had a crew of three helpers. All college educated and for the most part useless. I had to check everything they did or it was wrong. They couldn’t even count or read simple instructions and get it right. Their entire existence revolved around their phone. That’s all they had. Other than that they lived at home or with a group of friends. Most did not have a car and had to take a bus or ride share. They did not care about how much they made. They had no incentive to move up in the company. They did not care about heath insurance or forming a union to get better benefits. That’s because our government provides what American companies should. Every Walmart store costs the taxpayers about a million dollars in entitlements for workers. Yet the Walmart family is worth billions. This is already a socialist country. People no longer care about hard work. They have a you owe it to me mentally. That’s because they had no upbringing. Mom and dad were out chasing the American dream which no longer exists. The only thing that will save this country is to bring back unionism. Make corporate America provide jobs that can support a family. Relying on government to provide basic necessities is a mistake. A government big enough to provide everything you need is strong enough to take everything you have. If you were to put grafts of the decline of the middle class over decline of unions they would match perfectly.
