ANOTHER PROVOCATIVE BUT SIMPLE AND BASIC TRUTH
ON COMMUNISM AND THE FALLACY OF “TOTALITARIANISM”by Bob Avakian June 24, 2020 Editors’ Note: The following is the second part of a previously published article: “Bob Avakian On Impeachment, Crimes Against Humanity, Liberals And Lies, Provocative And Profound Truths.” It has been given a separate title here.

UGLY WORDS & PHRASESHere are words and phrases that should never be used in the wrong way by anyone who hungers for a more just world: “officers” to refer to police, and “the President” to refer to Trump.

Trump should not be referred to as “the President,” but “the racist pig-loving fascist in the White House,” for that is what he is. Next time you are watching “mainstream” television, every time you hear them refer to cops as “officers” and refer to Trump as “the […]
