At PJ Media, Robert Spencer published an excellent comparison in
historical terms of Biden’s ideology and that of the former Soviet Union. Mr Spencer begins:
In Marxist theory, the final stage
of socialism is true communism, when everyone shares of his or her resources
equally, the state withers away, and true justice finally dawns upon the earth.
We never have seen that stage and never will, because Marxism is rancid
pseudo-religious hogwash that runs directly contrary to human nature. The real
final stage of socialism is what we saw in the last ten years of the Soviet
Union: an entrenched, all-encompassing, corrupt and inefficient state
bureaucracy nominally presided over by a succession of senescent, barely-there
incompetents. With his disgraceful descent into open authoritarianism Thursday
evening, Old Joe Biden and the Democrats signaled their intention to skip right
to that final stage: they’ve already got the doddering figurehead and the
ravenous bureaucracy firmly in place.
. . .
And now that Joe Biden is out in
the open about criminalizing his opposition and brooking no dissent, we can
skip here in the United States right to the final stage of socialism. We have
the entrenched deep-state bureaucracy, and we have the dementia-ridden
septuagenarian puppet in charge, so we’re all set. . . .
