After years of abject lies and denials, the Communazi Left finally admitted the obvious: that they are out-and-out collectivists, playing on the fact that many don’t remember how all the varieties of collectivism have always been on the losing end of history. They just lie, claiming their ancient ideas are new, pretending they’ve never been tried before. And even if they have, they’ve got plenty of excuses to explain the continuous and consistent failure.

Thus, we have a problem in reaching those listening to the siren song of socialism. This is the issue Glenn Beck recently tackled when he called for his listeners to improve their words and approach—and we’re rising to the challenge.
Ask a leftist about the “villages of cooperation” and the first experiments in socialism 200 years ago, and you’ll likely get a blank stare. Inquire about the source and meaning of the word Utopia, and it’s like talking to a brick wall. Mention the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, U.S.S.R., or any of its socialist satellite states, and they’re apt to be clueless about the concept.
A good rule of thumb has always been that the more you know about socialism, the less you like it. Outward appearances suggest that the country’s leftist leadership wants to keep the facts about their secular religion on a “need to know” basis—and it seems that they like it that most of their collectivist cult members don’t really know anything but some emotive, feel-good slogans that don’t make any sense, and some rejoinder talking points when they encounter tough questions.
The problem has always been how to get past the Communazi cult programming and restart the thinking process in those who have already imbibed the Kool-Aid. The question is simple: What words, phrases, and lines of thought can break through the belief that these ancient ideas are “new” and will somehow bring forth a “utopia”?
The politics of plunder.
This traces back to the term “legal plunder” from Frédéric Bastiat’s The Law. The test is if you would be arrested for what the government is doing, then that also has to be illegal. If you’re stealing from someone to buy the votes of many, that is wrong, no matter how you dress it up in frilly leftist language and phrases.
The loser ideologies of the left are built upon the twin tactics of fraud and force. Fraud because they promise the moon in property taken—plundered—from others, and force, when the people realize they’ve been royally screwed and want their political power returned.
It’s the old saying that, “you can only vote for socialism once,” or “you can vote your way in, but you’ll have to shoot your way out.”
It’s also important to remember that if the government can cross the line in taking the property of someone else, there is nothing to stop them from taking it from you. Because as soon as they end private property, everything is up for grabs.
Hence, the use of the words referring to plunder or thievery instead of policy. You may think that you’re going to get something for nothing, but it never works out that way.
It’s all fun and games with freebies until the men with guns show up and grab your stuff as well.
The confiscation class.
This is defining someone by their actions instead of who they are. People whose only solution is to take from others instead of actually solving a problem.
The taker’s creed.
Principles based on thievery. There are only two ways to get things: make them or take them. The first type builds society, the second tears it down.
The architects of dependency.
Taking discourages making, with those who used to produce, deciding to just receive what is taken from others, and becoming dependent on the mechanism.

The point in all of this is the emphasis on actions instead of intentions or feelings.
Now that we’ve gone through the basic parameters, it’s time to consider how we can improve words and the message. Alliteration is always an important consideration (as in what we did there), as well as understandable word usage.
Because Communazi leftists have never had any regrets over the use of falsehoods and gaslighting, they’ve just convinced themselves that it’s all for the Gemeinnutz common good, and therefore virtuous. This means they work off a fact-free sales script, falsely taking credit for anything the government does that’s positive and promising freebies galore. Fighting against that is like swimming upstream.
Let’s simplify the sales pitch for freedom even more, casting this as a perennial contest between Makers and Takers.
Makers are those who are useful and produce for our society, the people who keep everything running, from those who physically manufacture things to those who keep the cogs turning—from Design Engineers to Uber drivers.
Takers are merely those who parasitically feed off of productive society, with the illegal and legal varieties. We call the illegal variety criminals, and the legal variety collectivists. This probably explains why leftists have such an affinity for criminals — they are of the same moral mindset on the politics of plunder.
Takers are thieves that tear down society instead of building it up, society’s losers that resent the success of its Makers. They are like the vines of the forest, winding their way around healthy trees, exploiting their support and sapping their growth.
They have no choice but to lie to garner the support of society’s Makers, because they have nothing to contribute but misery, violence, and a dead-end road to ruin.
The dead end of dependency.
While distinguishing the difference between Makers and Takers, it’s also important to use common sense to get people to understand that this kind of system has never worked, and can never work.
Because it should be obvious that it’s easier to be a Taker and free-load off the Makers. The system rewards taking and discourages making. Society soon declines as it has every time this is tried, no matter what name they use.
The unchanging laws of human nature decree that this will result in a dependency spiral and permanent decline. History taught us this lesson time and time again, if we would only listen.
Like the proverbial used car salesmen of politics, there is always a new crop of Communazi Leftists willing to credit collectivism for anything positive that is ancillary to government activity and promise unlimited freebies for the low-low price of one’s liberty. It’s going to be vitally important to teach people that if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. And that is the case with any variation of collectivism.
