You see, in the late 80's the academic left in America wasted no time in rehabilitating the political philosophy that created both the Gulag concentration camps and the Holodomor (the intentional starving of at least 3 Million Ukrainians by the Soviet Union)...

For example, in 1993 Victor Villenueva spoke at the Annual Meeting of the National Council of Teachers of English (pic 1) and gave a talk (which he said aimed at those who thought the failure of the Soviet Union did not prove Marxism was unworkable) about how to read Marxism.

you might wonder "Why is someone lecturing about how to read Marxism at a conference for teachers of english?"
The answer as that even as the bodies left behind by communism were still being counted, Marxists were trying to spread their evil philosophy through the academy...

This is like if someone had said the philosophy of Hitler still had merit and wanted to teach it to public school teachers...while the concentration camps were still being freed.
Yes, it's that bad.
Communism is, without doubt, the deadliest ideology in human history...

“We are not waging war against individuals. We are exterminating the bourgeoisie as a class...Do not look for evidence that the accused acted in word or deed against Soviet power. The first question should be to what class does he belong...that should determine his fate.”

And yet the genocidal ideology of Marxism continues to be treated respectably. Rather than being shunned as the repugnant evil it is, in academic circles it is seen as a mark of sophistication to think Marx philosophy had nothing to do with the evil committed in its name

Stop cowering before the watered down credentials, ridiculous academic jargon, and dishonest rhetorical tactics of people who want to intellectually humiliate you so they can demoralize you until you comply with their ridiculous demands.
