Staggering Poll Numbers Show What America Is Up Against: As Younger Generations Embrace Socialism & Censorship, They Ignore Socialism's Growing 'Kill Count'
- Death By Government: 'First they take your speech, then they take your life'

In this new study from Gallup which the Drudge Report had linked to on Tuesday, they report that more than 4 in 10 Americans now embrace socialism, with 43% of the respondents saying socialism would be a 'good thing' for America while 51% say it would be a 'bad thing'. Now keep those numbers in mind when you read this next point.
According to this May 20th story over at Campus Reform that the Drudge Report had also linked to, 41% of college students recently surveyed believe that 'hate speech' should NOT be protected by the US Constitution, including a majority 53% of college woman surveyed and a majority of black students as well.
And while 58% of those students surveyed still believe that so-called 'hate speech' should be protected by the 1st Amendment and the US Constitution, when we see the nearly identical 40% to 43% who embrace socialism and who think that 'hate speech' should be banned in America, we get a clear picture of just how quickly the blind acceptance of socialism is growing, a huge warning to Americans who realize that the historical death toll of socialist regimes has been astronomical.
And when we break down the numbers from this Gallup poll, a very loud and clear warning is sent to an America. As that poll reported, over 51% of America's younger generation had a very positive view of socialism while only 28% of those over 65 looked at socialism positively. And with our older generations who still remember the dangers of socialism growing older, while the younger generations who'll eventually be replacing us come into power in the years ahead actually embracing socialism, all of this is also happening at a time when America is going through one of the biggest shifts in demographics in decades.
So one can argue there's never been a more important time than now for America's older generations to become involved, teaching America's younger generations what freedom means and what historically socialist countries have brought us, pain, starvation, death and destruction as anybody can see via taking a look at what's been happening in Venezuela the last several years.

According to the Gallup poll's numbers, back in 1942, only 25% of Americans believed socialism would be a good thing for America and with those numbers now up to over 40%, we're not the least bit surprised that 57% of Democrats view socialism positively in 2019. And while a 2018 Gallup poll found only 16% of Republicans have a positive view of socialism, with so many on the left now pushing for socialism and happy with the censorship of ideas they disagree with, it's really not too much of a stretch to suggest should Democrats take 2020, socialism for America might not be too far off.
And as Egon von Greyerz reported in this new story over at Gold Switzerland, a full-scale economic collapse in America virtually guarantees socialism, with his warning that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez might be the perfect Democratic presidential candidate in 2024 as she promises Americans solutions for every ill that ails us, not fully understanding that socialism historically turns horrific when the government runs out of other people's money to spend.
And the younger generations of Americans being completely dumbed down to the dangers of socialism has much to do with our public school (indoctrination) systems which rely upon censorship of other ideas to accomplish their goals. From this Campus Reform story.:
According to the survey, there seems to be a disconnect on how individuals of various races look at the issue of free speech. More than six in 10 black students believe that inclusivity is more important than free speech, while 49 percent of Hispanic students believe the same thing.
Just 42 percent of white students believe that inclusivity is more important than free speech, according to the survey.
Multiple colleges around the country have implemented mandatory “diversity” and “inclusion” classes for all students, including Tulane University, Georgia Southern University, and Clemson University. Syracuse University mandated a diversity course for all incoming students in fall 2018, but later admitted it “didn’t hit the mark.”
The survey comes after a heated semester for free speech issues on campus. In late April, a Canadian professor argued that "vile little sh*tlords" who are passionate about free speech should be fired and harassed. A New York college president even wrote an op-ed titled “A Campus Is Not the Place for Free Speech,” in which he explained his opposition to free speech on college campuses.
So let's take a look here at the historical death toll of socialism, the excerpt below comes to us from this story at WND...
In Europe, especially in Germany, hoisting a swastika-emblazoned Nazi flag is a crime. For decades after World War II, people have hunted down and sought punishment for Nazi murderers, who were responsible for the deaths of more than 20 million people.
Here’s my question: Why are the horrors of Nazism so well-known and widely condemned but not those of socialism and communism? What goes untaught – and possibly is covered up – is that socialist and communist ideas have produced the greatest evil in mankind’s history. You say, “Williams, what in the world are you talking about? Socialists, communists and their fellow travelers, such as the Wall Street occupiers supported by our president, care about the little guy in his struggle for a fair shake! They’re trying to promote social justice.” Let’s look at some of the history of socialism and communism.
What’s not appreciated is that Nazism is a form of socialism. In fact, the term Nazi stands for the National Socialist German Workers’ Party. The unspeakable acts of Adolf Hitler’s Nazis pale in comparison with the horrors committed by the communists in the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the People’s Republic of China. Between 1917 and 1987, Vladimir Lenin, Josef Stalin and their successors murdered and were otherwise responsible for the deaths of 62 million of their own people. Between 1949 and 1987, China’s communists, led by Mao Zedong and his successors, murdered and were otherwise responsible for the deaths of 76 million Chinese. The most authoritative tally of history’s most murderous regimes is documented on University of Hawaii professor Rudolph J. Rummel’s website and in his book “Death by Government.”
And while in the excerpt below from this Reason story we see that NOT ALL socialist nations have failed, that doesn't mean there still isn't time for them to. The socialists nations in Europe are clearly now carrying out their own destructions.
Sorry If You're Offended, but Socialism Leads to Misery and Destitution
After all, socialism is the leading man-made cause of death and misery in human existence. Whether implemented by a mob or a single strongman, collectivism is a poverty generator, an attack on human dignity and a destroyer of individual rights.
It's true that not all socialism ends in the tyranny of Leninism or Stalinism or Maoism or Castroism or Ba'athism or Chavezism or the Khmer Rouge—only most of it does. And no, New York primary winner Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez doesn't intend to set up gulags in Alaska. Most so-called democratic socialists—the qualifier affixed to denote that they live in a democratic system and have no choice but to ask for votes—aren't consciously or explicitly endorsing violence or tyranny. But when they adopt the term "socialism" and the ideas associated with it, they deserve to be treated with the kind of contempt and derision that all those adopting authoritarian philosophies deserve.
But look: Norway!
Socialism is perhaps the only ideology that Americans are asked to judge solely based on its piddling "successes." Don't you dare mention Albania or Algeria or Angola or Burma or Congo or Cuba or Ethiopia or Laos or Somalia or Vietnam or Yemen or, well, any other of the dozens of other inconvenient places socialism has been tried. Not when there are a handful of Scandinavian countries operating generous welfare-state programs propped up by underlying vibrant capitalism and natural resources.
And while more than 4 in 10 Americans think that socialism is 'the answer' to America's problems, let's take a look within this section briefly at what's happening now in Venezuela where socialism served the people of their country so wonderfully, the masses turned to getting their next meals in food lines, garbage dumps, and stray and zoo animals.
Leaving the nation woefully lacking in not only foods and basic goods such as toilet paper but medications and medical services as well, how might America be different under socialism than Venezuela or any of the other socialist nations that were quickly turned into totalitarian hellholes? The fact that many of those pushing for socialism now are ready to impose their views upon the rest of America is telling. The following excerpt is the 'bottom line' from the Gallup poll.:
Americans' views on socialism are complex. While some recent data can easily lend to overstated conclusions, there are marked changes in Americans' views of socialism when taking a longer, more historical look at the data. However, exactly what Americans mean by the term is nuanced and multifaceted. While half of Americans consider socialism as bad for the country, nearly two-thirds say that the U.S. economy is more influenced by the government than the free market, or that it reflects an equal mix of the two.
Additionally, while a majority of Democrats view socialism positively, that is not a major change in the eight years Gallup has tracked this metric. The major shift over this time has been the reduced rate of Democrats who now view capitalism positively (47%).
These data alone make it hard to generalize a simplistic conclusion about Americans' opinions of, and willingness to entertain, socialism. But there are a few clear takeaways. About four in 10 Americans are accepting of some form of socialism or socialist policies, and Democrats currently have a more positive view of socialism than capitalism. In addition, the April survey found that 47% of Americans say they would vote for a socialist candidate for president. While that figure represents nearly half of the U.S. adult population, even higher percentages say they would vote for an atheist (58%) or Muslim (60%) presidential candidate.
With those extremely high figures showing a majority of Americans surveyed were quite fine with either an atheist or a Muslim presidential candidate, should an openly Muslim president be voted into the US presidency, how long would it be until sharia law became the 'law of the land'?
As we see in this new story over at Now The End Begins, not quite satisfied with just socialism, liberals have been pressing hard to make pedophilia legal here in America in preparation of bringing sharia law into this nation with the goal of the Muslim Brotherhood the full implementation of sharia law all across the planet. From their story.
The goal of the Muslim Brotherhood and all of its minions, is world domination. That is, to instate Sharia law in every country. We are seeing this in America right now. The Islamization of Dearborn is so blatant, that Americans tread lightly there, and some are in a constant state of fear. We are seeing it in Texas.
So where do we stand on the subject of Liberals, Islam, pedophilia and Sharia Law? It’s worse than you might think. True, the Islam-loving Barack Hussein Obama is no longer president, Donald Trump is. But the wheels set in motion during Obama’s presidency remain largely in motion in 2019. In just a few short years, the Democratic Party has gone waaaay to the Left and become Socialist, and already elected two Muslim women to Congress who hate the Jews and hate Israel. The LGBTQ+ is more aggressive than ever, and with each passing day grow closer to adding the ‘P’ for pedophile to their umbrella of protection. Sadly, we have moved closer to what we warned you about in this article, much closer.
There are outcries by Americans, but the Islamists are bound and determined to see America with Sharia law in all 50 States. But in order to achieve this lofty goal of Sharia Law, something MUST be done about those pesky pedophilia laws in every state.
So with Democrats moving more and more left while America's younger generations are further dumbed down through our public schools, socialist indoctrination centers, while twitter supports Islam's sharia law as was reported in this March 1st story over at the Christian Broadcasting Network claiming Michelle Malkin had 'upset' Muslims, the dividing lines in America are sharp and clear and only a well awakened American populace will be able to stop our nations fall into complete tyranny.
