Dull Academic Incessant Liturgical Yapping: Philosophical Orations on Order & Reaction
I’m not afraid to calmly assert today, at 60 years of age, after all my experiences with men and books, with speeches and situations, that the great speech by Donoso on dictatorship on January 4th, 1849 is the greatest speech in world literature. And with…
I have decided to make some high schoolers read this in its entirety.

Who's ready for some good old fashioned American-born communist propaganda?
The question asked of Communists more frequently than any other, if we can judge from the Hearst newspapers, is this:
“If you don’t like this country, why don’t you go back where you came from?”
The truth is, if you insist on knowing, Mr. Hearst, we Communists like this country very much. We cannot think of any other spot on the globe where we would rather be than exactly this one. We love our country.

Another communist who loves Lincoln. Color me surprised.
Witness Earl Browder, a heritage American and Anglo-Saxon whose ancestors fought against the British both during the Revolution and the War of 1812 and who at one point had his criminal sentence commuted by fellow heritage American Franklin Delano Roosevelt, speak on the nature of America, revealing that communism is as American as apple pie:

The revolutionary tradition is the heart of Americanism. That is incontestable, unless we are ready to agree that Americanism means what Hearst says—slavery to outlived institutions, preservation of privilege, the degradation of the masses.
We Communists claim the revolutionary traditions of Americanism. We are the only ones who consciously continue those traditions and apply them to the problems of today.
We are the Americans and Communism is the Americanism of the twentieth century.
...
This is how we American Communists read the history of our country. This is what we mean by Americanism. This is how we love our country, with the same burning love which Lenin bore for Russia, his native land. Like Lenin, we will fight to free our land from the blood-sucking reactionaries, place it in the hands of the masses, bring it into the international brotherhood of a World Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and realize the prophetic lines of Walt Whitman :
“We have adhered too long to petty limits ... the time has come to enfold the world.“

Classical liberalism was a Pandora’s box…
“Men being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions.”
— John Locke
“The worth of the individual is supreme, and over himself, over his own body and mind, the individual is sovereign.”
— John Stuart Mill
…elevating equality and individualism above all, making man sovereign instead of God, has brought the West to the brink.
