Let's cut through Cornshits Bs and lies.
The Repubs are now the home of the old racist dixiecrats, not the dems.
You start out in 1954 by saying, “Nigger, nigger, nigger.” By 1968 you can’t say “nigger”—that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states’ rights and all that stuff. You’re getting so abstract now [that] you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is [that] blacks get hurt worse than whites.

Interestingly, Richard Hofstadter wrote in the Introduction to his book "Anti-intellectualism in American Life" (pp 40-41)
"And today, when Communism has been reduced to a negligible quantity in American domestic life, the cry for a revival of this scapegoat is regularly heard in the land, and investigators who are unable to turn up present Communist affiliations have resorted to stirring up the dead husks of fellow-traveling memories or to obscuring as completely as possible the differences between liberals and Communists. The truth is that the right-winger needs his Communists badly, and is pathetically reluctant to give them up."
this was written in 1962... which was 48 years ago...

Hopefully Skip and bluering have both imaginary friends and imaginary enemies. As long as they're not listening to those voices in their heads..

Hey, Blue....I'm an unrepentant Commie. Nyah, Nyah, Nyah. What you gonna do? I could be, YOU don't know....
Communism is legal in America. As are many things. As it should be.
Freedom of choice is better than Freedom FROM choice, Dude. You know this.
Let folk be what they will. They will anyway.

Clever play, Ed, but I resent you trying to play me for an ignorant chump. Ever hear of the Meiner Badhof gang? The Frankfurt School for Socialist Research?
Commies. They all advocated a subversive cultural and political takover of society. It's all well documented. As always, they never overtly say what they mean, but just look at their pupils and disciples.
One of their give-aways is the whole, "communism is dead, it'll never work HERE" lines.
EDIT:

I never said it was illegal or even a bad thought, really. Just really bad for this country. Do your f*#king homework, Skully!

Let me ask you this, El Capitan, "would you rather buy biners made in Cuba, North Korea, Viet Nam, or the U.S.?
How about healthcare?
How about a car?
How about living in one of those countries????
