WTF Is The "Naked Communist?"

I was arguing with a right-wing nutbag on Huffington Post yesterday and he threw this at me: 25. "Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as normal, natural and healthy". 26. "Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting homosexuality, obscenity, and pornography in books, magazines, motion pictures, and TV." The lefist social engineering machine is working well. -His comment. So I dispute that anybody on the left would ever write such a thing, and he insisted that "a leftist wrote it, and it's in the Congressional Record!" So I looked it up. The Naked Communist From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Naked Communist is a book written in 1958 by conservative United States author and faith-based political theorist Cleon Skousen.[1] The book posits and seeks to describe a geopolitical strategy by which the Marxist–Leninist Soviet Union was attempting to overcome and control all the governments of the world that were not members of the Communist bloc. At the time that the book was published, during the Cold War, fear of communism was common among people in non-communist nations. The list of communist goals contained in the book was read into the Congressional Record by U.S. Congressman Albert S. Herlong, Jr. of Florida, on January 10, 1963.[2] The following is the list of Communist goals contained in The Naked Communist:[2] (Note: there is no such list in the original edition of the book.) U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war. Develop the illusion that total disarmament by the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party. Do away with all loyalty oaths. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks. Gain control of all student newspapers. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms." Control art critics and directors of art museums. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy." Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a "religious crutch." Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state." Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man." Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture." Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture—education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions. Infiltrate and gain control of big business. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand or treat. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity, masturbation and easy divorce. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use "united force" to solve economic, political or social problems. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government. Internationalize the Panama Canal. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over nations and individuals alike. WTF???????????????????????????????????? They're still believing sixties propaganda!

  1. On my posts, I can't seem to space out the paragraphs... the word processor in Blogger has a glitch and it all gets squeezed together. Pain in the ass.

    Yeah so, this 'manifesto' was indeed in the congressional record, but it was authored by a right-wing paranoiac nut, as I thought when first presented with parts of it. The guy posting it was CERTAIN that a "leftist" wrote it. So the hatred is conserved from generation to generation of these sick fucks. Shit.

  2. When it seems to be obvious, even to themselves, that they are the bad guys they just play opposite day.

    "Why it's them liberals who wanted to keep the black man on the plantation!", paraphrasing that conservative neurosurgeon. It's the big lie, the bigger the better, but some people will believe it, some people will never check out whether he is lying, mistaken or being willfully ignorant, and some of them would otherwise vote against him.

    Your guy seems to be one of those who has been given this 'damning information' twisted to suit their ideology and hopefully he'll spread it to people who will just believe him.

    1. Sounds like you don't see the truth put before you and you appear to be deflecting by detracting from the truth of this man's words and, well not in touch with reality. Sounds like you need to open your eyes and get on the ball with your research. It would be nice if you discussed the facts without stubborn bias.

  3. These same ideologues would have punched your face if you had tried to tell them that Saddam Hussein had nothing to do with 9/11.

    Why you'd have been calling their propagandists liars, you see?

  4. Here's me conversing with a progressive Christian telling us to ask others hard questions!

    Me: But it is so easy to answer any question since the answer is invariably, "Think of Jesus dying on the cross, for your sins!"
    Mark: I think some of y'all are missing the point here. This isn't @ asking big questions of God. It's more an "iron sharpens iron" point regarding how we deal with those in positions around us.
    Me: But when one is confused, that is a 'learning moment'. The teacher's job is not to lessen the confusion, but to increase it, then pivot to, "Think of Jesus dying on the cross, for your sins!" This method lessens the anxiety associated with confusion and teaches the student to answer questions appropriately.
    Mark: Ahhhh. Aha ! I took your first response seriously to my own confusion. Tricky.
    Me: Are you thinking of Jesus now, dying on the cross for your sins? Then my work is complete padiwan!

  5. It's so annoying that that person has, I am sure, already spread that false information to everybody he knows that will believe it, which is his entire peer group, and also me telling him the real source of it as I did, will not stop him in the least from continuing to do so. This is how the Bubble is made.

  7. Why do you give so much of your time and attention to hoary blogs? Could it be you just like to hear yourself bang on about supercillious nonsense?
    Do you have a life?
