a amazing speech from President Biden

But as I stand here tonight, equality and democracy are under assault," he continued. "We do ourselves no favor to pretend otherwise. So, tonight, I've come to this place where it all began, to speak as plainly as I can to the nation about the threats we face, about the power we have in our hands to meet these threats and about the incredible future that lies in front of us if only we choose it."
"Too much of what's happening in our country today is not normal," he said. "Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic."

Just like Senator McCarthy, everyone who disagrees with me is a communist. Biden has done a lot of damage.Big Daikon wrote: ↑Fri Sep 02, 2022 2:59 pm "Everyone who disagrees with us is an extremist."

Re: a amazing speech from President Biden
Starting to talk like the leader of the place most of us call home now, anyone who's a threat to the leadership is a threat to country and democracy.
I'm standing up, so I must be straight.

The key difference being that Joe McCarthy was right. And the external enemy at the time was murdering millions of their own citizens.Robins wrote: ↑Fri Sep 02, 2022 4:14 pmJust like Senator McCarthy, everyone who disagrees with me is a communist.

In any case, demonizing 25% of your own citizens is a dangerous move.

Joe McCarthy had secret knowledge, the Verona Project. The US was listening in on communications traffic coming from Moscow. He couldn’t say where it came from, nor be specific enough that it could be traced back to Verona.
The Soviets were infiltrating Hollywood to convince actors and directors to make anti-American, anti-Western films. Another push was to infiltrate the universities, and later the public schools, to indoctrinate teachers to hate America and the West in general. They also had an Secretary or State as their agent.
How successful were they? How many Americans hate America? How many Westerners hate their own countries where they came from? Did the US ever return to South Vietnam?
The Soviet Union collapsed, but their legacy lives on.
