Ah - I see it now, toward the bottom of the page:

CPUSA or “Communist Party USA,” and “Young Communist League” are partly behind the No Kings march, along with many other extreme-left groups.

They are no more powerful than the local high school club for kids who like Chipotle. There is nothing communist about not wanting a king or military in our streets.

The avowed communists in the US have never represented much more than 1% of the American populace. There aren't enough of them to really matter. Whereas, Trump approval polls are still at 39% which at this point is starting to look like the number of Americans who are fine with fascism.

+1 Communists are to MAGA what quicksand was to Gen X.

And we’re old enough to know that “communism!” being used as
a Boogeyman for the third time in our recent history. Every time fascists attempt to control the American government, they cry about the evils of communism. Communism is not a threat. People who know what these words mean don’t fall for it.

Just go and read a book about it. It’s just a philosophy, starting with Karl Marx but has evolved into different branches.
In today’s context it’s the equivalent of calling someone a witch or a heretic

I just toured Eastern Europe countries who were under Communism for 47 years. It was grim.
People starved under Communism after they killed the peasant farmers. If you had any kind of business or owned property it was dismantled and everything was owned by the government.

Those under 30 really embrace democracy. Those in their 60's have had rough lives.

In which countries did they kill the farmers?

My in-laws suffered under communism in Poland (which was mild, compared to communist nations such as Cambodia under the communist Khmer Rouge, or the Cultural Revolution in China). They remember, and they’ve talked about the horrors, in detail.

Never again!

Communism looked pretty different in every country. It had very little to do with the ideology and all to do with who was in charge.

Out of the pan and into the fire. The "free west" is being strangled by slow motion communism now.

If there were American Communists in power and actively handing the mass public, Communists would be less popular in USA

Similar reason to why Indians are OK with Hitler's Nazism. He didn't bother them, and they don't know much about what he did

The Community Party of USA is Communist. Can't deny that.
They are democratic communists, though, not authorization Communists

If you look at both fascist governments and communist governments in history, both have committed genocides. Most notably, communists perpetrated the Cambodian Genocide (7.1 million), the USSR’s various genocides (debated, but 5-10 million, potentially up to 20 million over the course of the USSR). The fascist example of Nazi Germany is the most famous (11 million). Both killed a ton of people.

Yet growing up in the 90’s and 2000’s, it was ok to wear a hammer and scythe t shirt. DC has a Marx Cafe, but can you imagine a fascist themed bar? Reddit has a r/communism community with 260k members for communism enthusiasts, yet no fascist related communities.

Clearly one is more taboo than the other.

Why?

Useful-idiot press runs cover for Commies.

I feel like I’m in some sort of time warp. Who even thinks about communists these days? What century are we in?

I wouldn't display your ignorance so proudly if I were you.

Is it really so hard to adapt to moving times? A mentality that is stuck in the past is a sure sign of a person that cannot cope with the future. There are plenty of ‘villains’ out in the world today. Take your pick. Please leave the 1950s behind and focus on what is actually happening.

And they have ZERO power. They hold no offices. The Church of Scientology has more members and more power.
