He says that she is a Communist. When I first heard the allegation that Kamala Chameleon is a communist, I laughed aloud and put it down to the lunatic fringe, the far shore of the American far right MAGA politics....I could not believe that a sentient being could imagine that the Democrats were fielding a Communist in this election...but now Donald Trump is saying it...he now has issued a meme which has her addressing [the party convention in Chicago] and the big flag is a red Communist flag with a hammer and sickle... These people...the Democrats, are the head of the snake of the United Snakes of America. There's no country they haven't invaded in the interest of finance capital, in the interest of American hegemony...there's no war they haven't been prepared to fight, no Southeast Asian population they haven't been prepared to mutilate and destroy...or to isolate Russia and potentially defeat China....[at any cost]..and there are people in America that think they are Communists???!"
THE X FACTOR - MOATS with George Galloway Ep 370
George GallowayAug 18, 2024
George's monologue focuses again on the indescribable tragedy of Gaza, and the fact no country in the Axis of Resistance has yet made a decisive military move to stop the ongoing genocide. Of course, both sides know that an all-out war could destroy much of the Middle East and plunge the world into a horrendous economic and military crisis. The need for restraint in responding to Israel's and Kiev's revoltingly irresponsible provocations is, therefore, unfortunately, a serious factor. George also comments on the appalling dishonesty (later elaborated on by Garland Nixon) underscoring US politics, wherein candidate Trump (himself an improbable choice in a genuine democracy) has the gall to call his opponent, Democrat Kamala Harris, a communist, something that could only happen in a massively ignorant and confused nation, product of untold generations of unrelenting anti-communist brainwashing.
THE BACKDROP: ELABORATION
With the planet on the brink of WW3 on account of flashpoints in Ukraine and Palestine, George discusses the events and political personalities that could precipitate such a disaster with guests Garland Nixon and Arnold August. Garland offers his interpretation of the dismal duopoly's candidates, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, the latter still exploiting long-cultivated US-anti-communist reflexes by calling Kamala a "communist", while Harris, echoing her party's favourite smear tactic, scares the electorate with denunciations of Trump as a "fascist". In this manner, both wings of the duopoly collaborate to keep the Overton window as narrow as possible, and devoid of actual political substance.
- In cynicism and power, the US propaganda machine easily surpasses Orwells Ministry of Truth.
- Now the fight against anti-semitism is being weaponised as a new sanctimonious McCarthyism.
- Unless opposed, neither justice nor our Constitutional right to Free Speech will survive this assault.
