I wondered whether you would try to refute a single thing I posted. You didn't, just fell back on the old liberal ad hominem. Points for predictability!

Do you know why I didn't bother to refute a single thing you posted because it would have been too ridiculous. For an example, a communist sympathizer back then did not mean someone who supported Stalin or the USSR but instead they supported the concept of communism which is not what they had in the USSR.

But to start such a discussion would be too difficult because like many who are misinformed, you probably believe that the ole USSR was the very epitomy of communism when, in reality, there was very little similarity between what was practiced in Russia and what Karl Marx proposed.

So its easier to fall back on liberal ad hominems rather then get into a lengthy discourse that leads no where.
