With your permission, we may re-post your observations in a separate post. It’s always enlightening to hear the views and opinions from someone who has lived outside of America and brings a fresh perspective.

We hope you’ll visit us again. Semper vigilo.

I came in US in 2002 from an east-European country that was under an oppressive communist regime between 1944-1989, and, even if I was only 11 years old when we dropped the communism in 1989, I still remember how they tried to indoctrinate us during the school hours, tv shows (by the way, the national tv station – the only one in the country – broadcasted every day only 3 hours, between 7PM to 10PM, and most of the time was just about communism, communists and their activities), “popular” meetings (like those that took place in 1st May 2006 in LA to legalize the illegal emigrants), etc. We’ve been taught in school that if our parents say something bad about the communism or its leaders at home we have to report them because they are a threat to the national security, to the party, etc. It is hard to explain how a nation, family or person could leave under a constant threat and fear for 50 years trying to survive a criminal regime. In order to survive, very few of them retreated in the mountains where they faugh with the communist army: some of them died in battles, other have been cut and died in prison after they’ve been tortured. But most of the people tried to suppress their instincts or thoughts being afraid they will be cut off guard and throw in jail, where only few were lucky enough to come back alive.

You might ask: ok, but where is your point? What this has to do with the current article?

Well, with the experience that I’ve accumulated leaving into a communist and post-communist country for 25 years, I have to tell you that the socialists from US, represented by the Democrat Party, most of newspapers, tv & radio stations, are using the same strategy and tactics to shut up this nation: fear, indoctrination, lies, victimization, etc, exactly like the communists did in my country. Yes, I have to admit the Socialist-Americans (I don’t know if anybody else used this word before, but I just came up with it realizing that if we have African-American, Hispic-American, etc, I have to name the american socialists somehow in order to be “politically correct” ) are not so oppressive like their fathers were in East-Europe or their brothers are in China, Cuba or Venezuela, but their actions are producing the same results:
- fear: of a law suit because your hurt somebody’s feelings, of loosing the job because you express your view about certain issues, etc;
- indoctrination: like Global Warming;
- lies: do I really have to give examples here?
- victimization: this is the best tactic they use to keep the people under control. The leaders are telling people that their problems are caused by somebody else (we’ve been told in school by the communists, for example, that the problems in our country are caused by the Americans. Here see the clichés: poor vs rich, black vs white, women vs man, latino vs non-latino, etc), but they are there to protect them. The problem is all these leaders don’t do anything to improve the life of the people they (auto)represent. They actually want their people to be weaker so they would depend on them. The more people you have depending on you, the more power you have.

The reaction to those comments follows exactly the same steps. Read between the lines…

I wanted to post a short comment but I’m realizing it’s almost as an article long, so I will end it here. There are many other things that I would like to share with you, but maybe in another posting.

Until then, WAKE UP PEOPLE, UNTIL IT’S NOT TOO LATE!

P.S. I am sorry if my English is not perfect. I took some English classes right after I came in US because I didn’t speak English at all, but after 2 weeks of “intensive” English I realized that I am learning Spanish faster than English so I abandon the classes. The teacher had to translate the lessons in Spanish for some of my classmates that were born here but didn’t even know what “What is your name?” means. No further comments.
