It is not enough to be passively not communist, we must be actively anti-communist.
It shouldn't be controversial to be anti-communist. But what exactly does it mean to be actively anti-communist? Some are interpreting it as 🚁 rides. It's not clear.
I don't take issue with the "we must" part. Strong speakers often say "we must"- it's not to be taken literally. "We must restore the middle class, etc."
🇵🇱 Poland was both actively anti-communist and anti-Nazi. It can be done. 🇵🇱
Not everything actively anti-communist or anti-racist is consistent with liberty. The Vietnam War was actively anti-communist, but not consistent with liberty. Killing all KKK members would be actively anti-racist, but not consistent with liberty.
The false assumption that if you're anti-communist then you must be pro-fascist is just really dumb.
