    To me the biggest hypocracy in general when it came to forms of communism.

    It’s a failed ideology, it will always collapse in on itself as soon as it grows.

    Followed with

    We need to destroy it at all costs to keep it from taking hold anywhere in the world.

    You don’t need to stop something that’s self defeating. It’s like the tower of babel story in the bible. Mankind was building up a great tower because they thought uniting they would be a powerful as gods, so god knocked over their tower, scrambled their languages to divide and conquer the world… Isn’t that kind of an admission that, God believed without his interference man can be as strong as he is?

      Yep, really US foreign policy purely supports that which it can profit from, and it can’t do that if the population starts using its own resources for its own benefit rather than allowing them to be stolen by the US.
