Communists Aren’t Cool
Comrades of the world, unite!
Today is May Day, or International Workers Day. What better way to mark this occasion than calling for the destruction of free enterprise or pledging allegiance to Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx. Don’t you know? Capitalism is evil and has caused more deaths than communism, says self-appointed historian and Occupy miscreant Jesse A. Myerson.
According to the Chicago-based group International Workers of the World, May Day began in 1886 with the help of anarchists and radical leftists:
On May 1, 1886, more than 300,000 workers in 13,000 businesses across the United States walked off their jobs in the first May Day celebration in history. In Chicago, the epicenter for the 8-hour day agitators, 40,000 went out on strike with the anarchists in the forefront of the public’s eye. With their fiery speeches and revolutionary ideology of direct action, anarchists and anarchism became respected and embraced by the working people and despised by the capitalists.
Rather than giving credence to disgruntled Marxists and communists on May 1, why not use this day to highlight the ills of global communism by honoring its victims?
Back in 2007, The Volokh Conspiracy’s Ilya Somin called on readers to commemorate the 100+ million lives lost under communism:

Wobblies still exist, who knew! I thought they all died with Joe Hill. Same old fools still believing the same old lies about communism.
was he perhaps chewing on the hemp while he wrote that? I he living in Colorado. Has he ever attempted to read the Gulag Archipelago? or perhaps he is just a complete idiot
Hey DaPenguin, Amen Bro.Instead of Commie Rotten to the Core crapucation every kid in America needs to read “The Gulag Archipelago” in school…
Also they need to read Witness by Whittaker Chambers and Chronicles of Wasted Time vol. 1& 2 by Malcom Muggeridge. And the Roots of American Order by Russell Kirk.
Devils’ paradise, but what else would one expect for
a people who can no longer bear the truth?
When people stop believing in God He’ll send us an atheist!
