NPR Promotes 'The Communist Manifesto' in 2023​

By Tim Graham​

It's entirely predictable, even inevitable, that public broadcasting would favor socialism in all its programming. But it's a little more surprising when it openly touts "The Communist Manifesto."

Since I'm a conservative glutton for punishment, I was driving on the highway on Sunday morning listening to the NPR-distributed program "On the Media" with host Brooke Gladstone, a longtime fixture on NPR. It was predictable when she chatted with socialist Naomi Oreskes about their mutual loathing of "free-market fundamentalism." But the next segment was even worse. My jaw dropped.

Gladstone gushed that since 1847, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels have "offered refuge, inspiration and argument, so many arguments still." She oozed, "like Hamlet's ghost, the manifesto is both impossible and imperative in its call for action." She introduced British author China Mieville, whose 2022 book "A Spectre, Haunting" is, she said, "a nonfiction rumination on that stalwart text."

A "stalwart text"? The incendiary inspiration for ruthless and expansionist dictatorships that murdered millions of people from 1917 forward is celebrated on American radio? Yes, and what this has to do with "the media" is anyone's guess.

Well, you listen to "news" media that glorifies and praises the recent attempt to overthrow American democracy and install it's OWN brand of expansionist dictatorship.

In other words, you have no right to talk here, bud.

The conservative fetish with "socialism" is fucking hilarious... Yet they have no problem using all the local, state, and federal social services...

Like these old Fox News addicts aren't draining SS as they type hate with their arthritic digits.
I wonder how many get "socialized" transportation to their MediCare paid-for doctor appointments.
 
Yeah, we should definitely get rid of all media except the truth telling and totally not compromised Fox “News”, etc.

^He has bluntly stated the he desires this exact thing.

One of the many, many reasons I have utterly no respect for him as a human being, or a poster.

You should see all the rugged individualist ranchers in my area who've been suckling on the teat of the federal government for decades with grants and subsidies, who then drive to MAGA rallies in new pickup trucks and complain about socialism.
 
Karl Marx had two valid insights. He was mistaken about everything else. He was particularly mistaken with his assertion in The Communist Maifesto: "The working men of Europe have no country."

For most people most of the time loyalties of race, nation and ethnicity are stronger than class.

Marx did not advocate the totalitarian methods used in his name during the twentieth century. He did inspire them, so he is not completely innocent. During the twentieth century millions of people were not killed in the name of John Stuart Mill.
 
As with any ideological discussion, including multiple perspectives is better than just one. NPR consistently has folks from multiple perspectives on their programs and gives each of them time on the air.

This is not true of all networks.
 
msnbc and cnn - they'll have reeps on - but they won't let them push lies.
they'll talk about the big lie stuff, but not have anyone go on push the stuff.
that is responsible reporting

Social services have nothing to do with totalitarian Communism.

Why don't you just get an education and try and understand what's being said instead of showcasing your lack of education?

You have the lack of context given to you by a biased opinion writer.

There never was a remote chance of totalitarian Communism in the United States. During the Cold War the danger was of a nuclear war, for which the United States may have had most of the responsibility.

The imaginary danger of Communism has been used by conservatives and reactionaries in the United States to defame the democratic left, including the Democrat Party.

Spot on; and I would add that the totalitarian right, with their fascist/anti freedom/Neo-Apartheid driven agenda actually poses a far greater threat to American democracy than either communism OR socialism.

You know, the totalitarianism that Rightguide and Lovecraft88 are always passionately championing.

I have known and liked members of the American Communist Party. They were infinitely charming, but rather silly, and incapable of starting a meeting on time, much less overthrowing the U.S. government.
 
I'd have no problem with the idea of private enterprise it were prevented from running amok as it currently has. And what's so bad about socialism? How about the Federal Highway system? or the police and fire departments? Don't get me started.
