“All I want for Christmas is full Communism now,” Buzzfeed editor Kelly Oakes – IOTW Report

“All I want for Christmas is full Communism now,” Buzzfeed editor Kelly Oakes

TheWrap-

A science editor at BuzzFeed UK raised a few eyebrows last week after some curious remarks about Communism.

“All I want for Christmas is full Communism now,” editor Kelly Oakes tweeted — before locking down her account after it was picked by right-wing media and the always ferocious James Woods.

The screenshots tell the story.

A spokesperson for BuzzFeed declined to comment on the matter. Oakes, who does not report to the website’s U.S.-based science desk, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Critics pointed out that Communism as practiced by the Soviet Union, China and North Korea has led to the deaths of over 100 million people, according to the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation.

It’s not the first time BuzzFeed has gotten into hot water over their editorial staff tweeting their open sympathy toward Communism.

In November, BuzzFeed reporter Blake Montgomery blasted a White House proclamation memorializing victims of Communism and tweeted out his belief that the term “victims of Communism” was just dog whistle and a “white nationalist talking point.”

The tweet was swiftly deleted and Montgomery apologized.

  1. Strike 1 – Buzzfeed
    Strike 2 – “science editor”
    Strike 3 – BATSHIT CRAZY and educated or indoctrinated by the Teacher’s Union

    This is our future folks….to say we are doomed is an understatement and until we can fix the education system in this country these mindless robots will continue to multiply and the numbers will eventually be lost for good turning this country into a safe space, feel good about yourself, genderless, marry your dog hellhole.

  2. This type isn’t happy unless she can make others experience her plight. Her whole theme is “I’m a miserable little bitch and profoundly unhappy with the world and you should be too.

  3. Who Stockholmed her?

    I hear these asshats talk about socialism or communism and how great it is, “in theory.” They go on about how successful it would be if it was implemented it “their way.”

    However, I’ve yet to hear one of these progressives explain why it would be so successful or great.

    It’s as if they’re simply recoiling from anything that is capitalism. Similar to Trump Derangement Syndrome, they have no concrete proof that DJT is bad, they just don’t like him.

  4. Hey lady why don’t you do a little reading like read Witness by Whittaker Chambers or The Gulag Archipelago by Alexander Solzhenitsyn, all 3 volumes and maybe some Malcom Muggeridge like his autobiography The Chronicles Of Wasted Time. But then again you might be too ignorant to want to know the truth about communism, give em a read you just might learn something.

  5. “Communism” requires a slave mentality.
    The “Communist” “Leaders” are only too happy to provide a system steeped in slavery. The “Leaders” are, of course, exempt from the constraints of “Communism” – thus Stalin had his 3 Dachas, Mao was the sole possessor of the Forbidden City, Hitler had his Berchtesgaden, Mussolini had Lake Como, Mugabe his palatial estate in Harare, Clinton her 4 palaces, and Bernie Sanders his three. The “proletariat” got turnips and polluted water … and death, by the millions. I know, I know … Bill Ayres says that at least 25 Million of us must be “liquidated” to install his “utopia” and Brecht declared that “the more innocent they are, the more they deserve to die” and the socialist (communist) paradise is built on a foundation of lies, the skulls of the innocent, and the blood of the terrified.
    The cycle continues.
    We (generally speaking) never learn. Each generation blinds itself to reality and accepts the lies of Evil.

  6. “Communism is a killer. And yet some still say they support the idea: According to a 2011 Rasmussen poll, 11% of Americans think that communism would better serve this country’s needs than our current system.”

    During the 20th century communism killed 94 Million people.
    94 MILLION !

    Those who are taught ideology and not “real” history are bound to repeat it. Thank you Public School system, Teacher’s Unions and Academia.

  7. @Kool Aid,
    WE are not doomed, THEIR generation is doomed if they continue to pursue Stupid.

    The premise that Humanity peaked in intelligence, ambition, institutions, creativity, etc. etc., in the 1970’s is looking just about right.
    That the drop off from that peak would be so abrupt and so drastic is the only surprise.

  8. Her favorite nursery rhyme……

    “Twinkle, twinkle, little Red star,
    How I want what you are.
    Up above the world so high,
    Like a hammer & Sickle in the sky.
    Twinkle, twinkle, little Red star,
    How I want what you are!

    When the evil capitalist is gone,
    When there’s nothing God shines upon,
    Then you show your Politburo might,
    Purge, Purge them all, through the night.
    Twinkle, twinkle, little Red star,
    How I want what you are!

    In the reeducation camp so deep
    Through my curtains the KGB peep
    For you never open your eyes
    Til the communist flag does rise
    Twinkle, twinkle, little Red star
    How I want what you are

    Twinkle, twinkle, little Red star
    How I want what you are

  9. “And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

    ― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago 1918-1956

  10. This is a quick win ya’ll.

    Ya’ll being a racial dogwhistle for this bitch

    In the spirit of Christmas, give her what she wants. Full blown Communism.

    Declare her writings seditious. Arrest her and her family. Seize their assets. Have a show trial where she cannot defend herself.

    Then, once she is found guilty, hang her in the town square.

    Everybody gets what they want. Nothing would ring in the new year for like having a big cup of hot chocolate while watching a an elitst Commie jerk at the end of a rope until her designer shoes fall off.

  11. @Ted Nougat December 19, 2017 at 10:05 am

    Aw, Ted Nougat, you went and got me all misty eyed. Now, all I want for Xmas is honest Communism, too. I guess I’ll just have to go out, and walk it off. Surrounded by Christmas Cheer, and proles that know “They’re from the Government, and They’re here to help.”

  12. We need a make Moscow Great Again plan where we can streamline leftists’ability to renounce their citizenship and fly to a communist utopia of their choosing never to return.

  13. Why would she spend so much time, effort and energy trying to turn this country into a communist nest when there are already many countries in which she would find an already functioning communist utopia!

  14. “… full Communism now …”

    Get it? This half-assed communism we are NOW suffering (sprinkled with enough Freedom and Liberty to keep the sick Socialist State alive), from both the Demonrats and RINOs, isn’t sufficient for this brand of Hate-American Traitor.

    You can’t negotiate with Cancer. It’s either you or it. We need to DECIDE.

  15. Nice “Olive Oyl” makeover, muffin.

    Another argument why so many young females are just not ready for adulthood. And not remotely ready to be allowed to vote.

    That can be fixed by Sharia or Full Communism, whichever she can bring about first.

    The astonishing thing about these Red Diaper Babies is they imagine that Full Communist Utopia will be just like now– Starbucks, new iPhones every year, designer fashions, trendy new restaurants, Amazon, Instagram– everything will be free. Free! Free! Free!
