<irrational fear of "communism">

Fears always seem to be demeaned as paranoia or irrational. It is perfectly rational to be fearful of communism and ilk. Such repressive dominance kleptocratic ideologies consume one's life. It is irrational to not fear for loss of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It is irrational to not seek peace, light, harmony, happiness, health, prosperity, longevity, fun and love. Those attributes are not listed in the Commie Manifesto or National Socialist Mein Kampf either. Nor does the CCP promote such ideas.

Fear of communism is rational.

Ironically, while fearing communism, Americans and others vote for more of it year after year. NZ has Helengrad running the show and a big majority in favour of more of the same seems certain this election. Now THAT's irrational and actually insane; the definition of insanity being those who keep doing the same thing hoping for a different outcome, then cursing the result of their own decision.
