There Will Be More Violence -- Socialism Calls for It
2025-05-31
[American Thinker] Despite all the excuses and finger pointing, liberals/socialists don’t think that they lost the last election -- they think that the people just voted wrong. As Lenin said: "People always have been and they always will be stupid victims of deceit and self-deception in politics." To influence these people, Lenin said: "We can and must write in a language which sows among the masses hate, revulsion, and scorn toward those who disagree with us." We have seen this tactic repeated in the negative stories about Trump and his supporters over the past decade. This is where totalitarianism starts. It ends with gulags and death.

U.S. socialists have been sowing Lenin’s hate, revulsion, and scorn at even a higher rate since the last election. They have been so successful that a recent poll indicated that 55% of them thought that assassinating President Trump would be justifiable.

To understand the thoughts, methodologies, and goals of modern leftists, you have to go back to the beginning and look at Lenin, the founder of the first socialist state.

The quest for power is what motivates today’s socialists just as it did Lenin. Their agenda today is to attack their capitalist/bourgeois enemies to gain power no matter what the human cost. Some of the Left’s favorite issues were in Lenin’s crosshairs in the 19th century and socialists return to the same Marxist playbook.

Lenin was very clear on what he wanted to do to his political enemies. He called for a "war to the death" with no mercy for the enemies of socialism. He also said that any who opposed his armed uprising were enemies, traitors, and cowards. The Red Terror of the Russian Revolution and civil war cost between 10-12 million lives.

By 2020, things hadn’t changed. Bernie Sanders’ paid staffers wanted to kill the ’rich’ in an armed rebellion, favored the execution of moderate liberals, gulags for Trump supporters, and violence if Sanders lost the election. The GULAGs, (Glavnoye Upravleniye LAGerey) were started under Lenin and greatly expanded under Stalin.

2025 saw Trump’s victory called an "existential crisis." And, as with Lenin, Democrats have been told they have to be ready to fight and die for the "cause." A Democrat congresswoman said that liberals are at "war." University staffers have said that Musk and DOGE employees are wanted dead or alive.

At the same time, news "fact checkers" have said that the supposed threats made by Democrats, aren’t really threats at all. They even question whether attacks on Teslas, owners, and dealerships are actually terrorism.

Still, Democrats want to be seen as "patriots" by the masses -- at least when they’re on camera. However, what did Lenin say about patriotism?
