How to Prepare for a Communist Coup

How to Prepare for a Communist Coup
Even as I write the title for this article, I wonder: Is that in fact possible? Can we be prepared for a hostile takeover?

The other day I was speaking with a friend about the ongoing insanity in some of our greatest cities: Seattle, Boston, NYC. We bemoaned the reappearance of the “democratic socialist” in the United States. It seemed incomprehensible to us—and horrifying, like a slow-growing metastasis or an insidious dementia. I wondered how we could prepare ourselves for the eventuality of a horde of lunatics reaching our otherwise peaceful community or worse—occupying the White House.

With years of experience as a doctor of pharmacy in critical incident work, including 9/11, she was the right person to ask. I also knew that her understanding of these things had been shaped by having had a father who risked his life in the Dutch Resistance, survived and escaped three concentration camps, and lived to be liberated from Nazi Europe. He was a complex man with a two-sided nature: aloof and critical but also a hero, having sacrificed a good part of his health and emotional well-being in order to save Jews and Christians he didn’t even know.

I asked her a simple question: if you had a time machine and wanted to warn your father, or the Jews or Ukrainians in the late '20s and early '30s, what would you tell them?

Her response surprised me: “Keep your eyes open, look for the truth, don’t be afraid to speak up, keep the faith and trust in God.”

Best way is to kill them all.

Stock up on ammo?

 

[Mosinitis]

The advice to Jews, not to trust communists prior and during WWII is hardly a sound advice.
Just goes to show, how much ignorance is out there about modern history.

 

[Mosinitis]

Russian historians and Putin did a pretty good job discrediting seven decades worth of horseshit put out by Nazi collaborators that worked for Voice of America.

 

[soylentBlue]

I worked with a guy from Laos that told me when the communists began desecrating Buddhist temples he swore to kill a communist every day before breakfast. DHS once visited him because he was publishing an anti-communist newsletter and having it smuggled into Laos. That put on a terrorist watchlist. I wonder what he is doing these days?

Some gymnastics in that video. Manipulation of facts and gross exaggeration to equate Stalin and Hitler. U.S. committed what many consider attrocities against civilian population of Dresden, Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Despite of what Germans did in Russia, Stalin didn't order destruction if a single German city. Red Army didn't burn down a single German village.

They raped and murdered their way to Berlin and once there, raped every German woman they could find. Despite the fact, that because of the shame felt many many committed suicide, there were survivors, their stories have been told.

This facet of the war was covered well in Cornelius Ryan's book The Last Battle. An excellent book btw.

Fake news, comrade! Glorious motherland and blessed leader Stalin would never have encouraged such a thing! Soviet Union greatest Union. As much grain as every man, woman, child can eat, and state-manufactured wooden toy horse for every child on their birthday! Fat Americans lie evermore and tirelessly, while our troublemakers instead of prison go to wonderful summer camp to learn skills such as breaking rocks and we get them lean through labor for motherland!

Book Review: Crimes Unspoken: The Rape of German Women at the End of the Second World War by Miriam Gebhardt - LSE Review of Books

In Crimes Unspoken: The Rape of German Women at the End of the Second World War, Miriam Gebhardt presents readers with a detailed and carefully researched account of the extent of sexual violence perpetrated by Allied forces against German women. Recent discussion has focused primarily on...

blogs.lse.ac.uk

In Chapter One, Gebhardt argues that we can get a more accurate idea of the occurrence of rapes by looking at the number of ‘occupation children’: i.e. children fathered by Allied troops. Using figures from the Federal Statistics Office (1956), she combines two approaches: one is based on the assumption that around five per cent of occupation children were fathered through rape. The other is based on the estimate that one in ten rapes ended in pregnancy. There is plenty of scope for error, concedes the author, but she estimates that 68,000 occupation children were born to German women between 1945 and 1955: 55 per cent were fathered by Americans, 15 per cent by the French; 13 per cent by the British; 5 per cent by Soviets; 3 per cent by Belgians; and 10 per cent by other nationalities. According to the mothers themselves, 3,200 of these children were the result of rape; the figures compiled by the American Provost Marshal adds 1,100 children to the total. Thus, Gebhardt calculates the total as 4,300 ‘rape children’: five per cent. The author’s estimate of the total rape victims— 860,000 — is by her own admission on the low side, but it presents an analytical challenge to the standard figure of two million rapes purported to have been committed by Soviet troops, according to the calculations of Sander and demographer Gerhard Reichling in the aforementioned collection, BeFreier und BeFreite.

In other news, war is ugly.

Yes, the U.S. is not perfect. The atrocities committed by Japan, Germany, and the Soviet Union are not wiped away becuase of this. Moral relativism doesn't hold weight, one wrong doesn't make another wrong lesser.


I'm sure the NKVD was just a jolly group of guys and Stalin was a benevolent leader. I have a bridge I can sell you too.


I know a girl pretty well whose parents are first generation Russian immigrants. What they told me is quite contradictory to the benevolent Soviet and Putin narrative.


I'm out.

Not true, thou there probably wasn't a single German woman that didn't get raped.

On October 25th, 1917 (Nov 7th new time), Emperor's palace was guarded by a battalion of women. Guarded is a big overstatement, but, never the less, bolsheviks raped ALL of them and killed many. Majority were gang raped.

Do not think for a moment that Americans are the worst, as professors in our universities reaching our kids. If that kind of event happens here - you know what to expect.

I posted facts. Your argument is typical of the arrogance and double standards we project towards other nations. We are not perfect, our slavery, extermination of Indians and payback destruction of German and Japanese cities are no big deal, but others are expected to be perfect and their reasons, historical context and what they accomplished doesn't matter.
Only a total indoctrinated MORON can compare Soviet Union to Nazi Germany.
He spoke to a girl with Russian parents, so he is informed.

When was this established as a fact?
What the hell is Emperor's Palace?
It's Russia, therefore anything anyone says has to be true? Know-nothings talking out of their ass.

Russian Women’s Legion of Death | World History

worldhistory.us

"When the Bolsheviks captured the Winter Palace on the night of October 25/26 the women surrendered last after exchanging a few bloodless rounds with the Red Guards. For years various factions for various reasons described how the women were raped and many were even killed and tortured after they surrendered. Modern military scholars have largely disproved this and no evidence of murder after surrender was ever produced although at least one young woman committed suicide. They were paroled and along with the rest of their unit disbanded. The 2nd Battalion had sent two companies (some 400 soldiers) to the front at the end of September 1917 where they were attached to the 27th Infantry Division. However they, like the women of the 3rd Battalion never saw combat and were disbanded at their garrisons by the Bolsheviks as they were seen as being counter-revolutionary. It is known that many of the women went on to serve with the White cause during the Russian Civil War."

Let's not forget that Lenin overthrew a democracy which at the time was being run by the socialist, Kerensky.

Not a czar. A democratic government.

Kerensky was the head of Provisional (i.e. temporary) government which was formed after czar Nicholas II abdicated. He wasn't voted in by the people. He was unable to restore law and order and morale of the troops. His commitment to continue fighting the war (WWI) was unpopular among people and troops.

No, not many women. Those that where left after taking Zimniy. Those that did live, few went to fight bolsheviks, mostly personal reasons, and mostly from aristocracy. Majority were executed.

Bloodied rounds with Red Guards? Barricading staircase called bloodied rounds?

in the late eighties and nineties, much of historical documents that have not seen the light of day have been released. You are reading or just copy/pasting English translations.

BTW, Zimniy, was the residence of Russian Czrs, or "Imperator". Also known as Emperors Palace.

Read on, but from multiple sources, if you do.
