I’m not for name-calling but it’s time to start using the “Communist” again when referencing Senator Bernie Sanders, for the media won’t. Communist word has been watered down to Socialist and now Progressive. So, let’s refresh ourselves on Sanders’ past.
As a University of Chicago student he joined the Young People’s Socialist League, the youth wing of the Socialist Party USA. He also organized a communist affiliate, the United Packinghouse Workers Union, which was being investigated by the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
After graduating Sanders moved to Vermont, heading up the American People’s History Society, an organ for Marxist propaganda. There, he produced a very flattering documentary on the life of Communist Revolutionary, Eugene Debs. Debs was jailed for espionage and recognized by the Bolsheviks as “America’s Greatest Marxist.”
