May Day began as a holiday for socialists and labor union activists, not just communists. But over time, the date was taken over by the Soviet Union and other communist regimes and used as a propaganda tool to prop up their regimes. I suggest that we instead use it as a day to commemorate those regimes’ millions of victims. The authoritative Black Book of Communism estimates the total at 80 to 100 million dead, greater than that caused by all other twentieth century tyrannies combined. We appropriately have a Holocaust Memorial Day. It is equally appropriate to commemorate the victims of the twentieth century’s other great totalitarian tyranny.Meanwhile, Zombie provides these excellent first-hand accounts of modern Leftist protests in Oakland, CA. A strange amalgamation of deadbeats, low-lifes, intellectual posers and earnest would-be revolutionaries are bent on tearing down the current order and replacing it with what? Zimbabwe?
