Maoist ‘Rebellions’ in America Inspired by China?
2020-06-01
[America's Survival] As patriotic Americans salute our astronauts, in space through a public-private partnership of NASA and SpaceX, we are dismayed by the seeming inability of the government at all levels to keep our citizens safe on the ground. It’s time for Congress to reestablish committees designed to expose internal security problems and examine whether some of these agitators are communist terrorists who find their inspiration in history’s greatest mass murderer, Chairman Mao.

Attorney General William P. Barr warned on Saturday that groups of "outside radicals and agitators" are exploiting the George Floyd situation "to pursue their own separate and violent agenda." Barr added, "In many places, it appears the violence is planned, organized, and driven by anarchistic and far left extremists, using Antifa-like tactics, many of whom travel from out of state to promote the violence." What he didn’t say is that the FBI, under his jurisdiction, is clueless about who is planning and organizing the chaos.

President Trump said on Sunday that Antifa, a term referring to the latest incarnation of communists active on American soil, will be designated as a terrorist organization. But there are literally dozens of Marxist or radical organizations that are not covered by the "Antifa" designation.

While Barr noted it is a federal crime to cross state lines to incite or participate in violent rioting and said "We will enforce these laws," the question remains: who or what is he talking about?

Sadly, the FBI doesn’t investigate communist groups on American soil anymore because some of them are integrated into the Democratic Party, whose congressional members do not go through background checks and yet conduct House oversight of America’s intelligence agencies. The Communist Party USA (CPUSA), once aligned with and funded by Moscow, openly supported Barack Hussein Obama for president in 2008 and 2012. Obama’s CIA director John Brennan voted for the CPUSA in college.
​
The CPUSA says, "We call on our members and friends to join the protests for justice in every way possible and to make justice for George Floyd part of every demonstration going forward." The Movement for Black Lives calls the riots "rebellions" and is active on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Instagram. "We are rising up by every means," they say.

Some communist groups are still loyal to the memory of Chairman Mao, who said in his Little Red Book, "Every Communist must grasp the truth: ’Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.’"

Mao’s 1968 statement in "Support of the Afro-American Struggle Against Violent Repression" in the United States is significant in this regard. Mao used the occasion of the Martin Luther King assassination riots in more than 100 American cities to declare that "The struggle of the Black people in the United States for emancipation is a component part of the general struggle of all the people of the world against U.S. imperialism, a component part of the contemporary world revolution."

For those unfamiliar with Marxist jargon, this means that communists have been exploiting blacks to make America into a communist state. This is still the communist mission.

During a time when conservatives find themselves increasingly censored by social media, the communists are able to organize without any hindrance whatsoever. Dan Scavino Jr., who handle social media for President Trump, wrote, "Twitter is targeting the President of the United States 24/7, while turning their heads to protest organizers who are planning, plotting, and communicating their next moves daily on this very platform..." Those protests, of course, quickly turned violent, to the point where the Minnesota governor finally called out the National Guard to restore order after the Democratic Party mayor of Minneapolis refused to act.

The existence of a major communist threat, China, makes some of these organizations devoted to agitation worthy of close scrutiny.

One Maoist group, the Progressive Labor Party, is "a communist organization that fights to smash capitalism and class society in order to establish a communist world!" and operates a newspaper called Challenge, with headlines about "police terror" and the "kkkiller cops." It has a web site and is also present on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Its "Capitalism is the Virus. Communism is the Cure" video is available on YouTube.

These American Maoists use American freedoms to organize against our institutions and our system of government.

#8  Rob Crawford, it's possible that it wasn't blowing smoke so much as turning on the lights to cause scuttling that might give away useful info.

#4  Oh, and it doesn't take Chinese funding for American lunatics to emulate Mao.

#3  Barr didn't say the FBI doesn't know who is behind it because they do know. The terrorists make their plans online, and you can bet they've been infiltrated.

BTW -- any arrests yet? Any bank accounts seized? Anything at all done to take down Antifa? Or was Trump just blowing smoke?

#2  The phrase I'm using to explain Antifa is "Leonid Brezhnev's Doomsday Machine."

Where is Commodore Matt Decker when we need him?

#1  It might be in vogue to jump on China's case in light of the COVID-19 madness, but I'm not so sure.

It's a shame the US has its own "Little Red Book" entitled "Political Correctness".
