          apparently you can tell the difference between observations and arguments or assumptions

            Hey, I made a statement, and I know what I know. Nuff said. You want to talk communism, ask the relatives of all those people who froze, starved, or were beaten to death in gulags just for having opinions that differ from the party line. Ask the people who emigrated out of Russia during Glasnost about communism who had relatives who were victims of the 'midnight knock'. They'd tell you plenty but I grant you this, what they tell you, will hurt you. Just like my previous statement, the truth always hurts when you hide from it.
            Sure, I'd choose death over this anytime and would welcome it. Many Soviets actually welcomed Nazi invasions during WWII.

              So your point being?
              And no I am not a communist.
              But you are not much different from them in that you see the world only in black and white. Things are much more complex than that.
              Oh and talk about invading..let's talk about how many countries "communist" countries invaded and how many countries capitalist ones invaded.
              And no you would cower down and take it. Like most everybody. The will to survive is stronger than political views.
              I'm not hiding from anything nor do any of your statements "hurt". Why would they. I don't care what you chose to do with your life nor how opinionated you are.

                  I think I'd prefer you die in the firestorm too. Meanwhile, those of us less jaded, defeatist and idiotic, can sit in the rubble soothing our radiation sores dreaming of the comparative luxury of a Soviet occupation and a chance to fight the good fight.
                  ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!

                    I think the phrase "get back to Russia" was something people generally said to any activist who was perceived as militantly left wing.
                    There was a TV show made a couple of years before
                    Threads
                    called
                    Boys From the Blackstuff.
                    Set in Liverpool, the main characters were all on the dole. One character, a socialist called Snowy, was a member of the Workers Revolutionary Party.
                    Snowy:
                    But be warned - the way things are going with this government, a swing to the right, tax relief for the rich, redundancies for the poor, mass unemployment, poverty, curtailing of freedom starting with the unions, it's all heading for one thing and one thing only - a fascist dictatorship and a police state.
                    Jimmy:
                    That's two things.
                    Loggo:
                    And it sounds just like Russia, Snowy.
                    Snowy:
                    Oh don't be soft -
                    Loggo:
                    You know you, eh, you're an offence under the Noise Abatement Act.
                    Snowy was a bit like that trade unionist in
                    Threads
                    who was calling for a general strike, just before the scuffle with the police and the ensuing riot.

                          Part of the commie's job is to sew dissension and strife among the populace, and to instigate strikes and riots by reinforcing already healed doubts and beliefs about the weakness of one's own government. This will weaken moral, cause confusion, tie-up law enforcement and government services, all of which will weaken the home-front in general. It is to push the government into a position of weakness and make them ripe for capitulation, or at a minimum, blunt the sword of defiance to the enemy's goals and forces.

                                No, that was how the early 80's was.
                                Communist antagonists and disinformation was both feared and real back then.
                                It's like today, if someone is against the bombing of Syria.
                                "What? Are you an ISIS sympytiser?"
                                Especially if you happen to be Muslim I guess..

                                    1. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
                                    2. Gain control of all student newspapers.
                                    3. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

                                      that seems more like what's happening right here in the US except just replace communism with fascism or "corporatism"

                                        we found out about so much communist agitation from defectors soon after the wall came down, the STASI had thousands of people in the UK propagandizing for them. One such defector brought microfiche files of 280,000 operatives in the west.
                                        trashing books is like the Special Olympics even if you win & burn them all you are still a retard.

                                          In my country there major part of our teachers were left-wing (communist or Marxist, or similar, extreme feminist, pro-Palestinian, anti globalism, environmental extremists and so on and so forth ).
                                          Heck, even today, they mostly vote on the left-most parties.
                                          I guess the Soviet union succeeded in some areas indeed.
