Victory Over Communism-S3-Episode 15

This episode explores how China's supreme leader Xi Jinping revitalized communist ideology. He remains a true believer in its false tenets. The program reveals that a new school of thought among China experts in the West incorrectly argues that Xi is not seeking global domination. These China hands seek to minimize the ideological danger posed by Xi's China. They say his goal in building massive military forces is solely to keep the despised Chinese Communist Party -- and himself -- in...

Devastating wildfires destroyed large areas of Los Angeles and prompted intense criticism of LA Mayor Karen Bass, a Marxist-Leninist who traveled frequently to Cuba for radical training in the past. Bass, along with Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom, failed to effectively prepare for the wildfires by cutting funds for firefighting and instead spent millions on politically correct radical environmental programs. The failures reflect a long-term radicalization of politics in California which has become a...

Victory Over Communism-S3-Episode 13

The Chinese Communist Party has persisted since seizing power in 1949 because of a fundamental failure on the part of American and international leaders to understand the nature of the communist system it imposed. These include the failure to properly identify its nefarious activities, its strategic goals, and most importantly seeing through its grand deceptions all of which are driven by its ideology – dubbed Marxism-Leninism with Chinese characteristics. This episode explores the heart of the ...

Victory Over Communism-S3-Episode 11

China's Communist Party broke with the Soviet Union over the denunciation of Stalin in the 1950s and remains a Marxist-Leninist-Stalinist regime that regards its version of communism with Chinese characteristics as the only true ideology. In fact, Chinese communism remains as false and misleading as its Soviet progenitor. This episode looks at how the CCP continues to grapple with its faulty ideology and seeks to cover up its false tenets with new tools of obfuscation. The counterproposal s...

Victory Over Communism-S3-Episode 10

The neo-Marxist assault on the institution of the traditional family is the focus of this episode. The current trend in advancing radical gender ideology in America is not an isolated progressive policy. It is rooted in Marxist theorists of the Frankfurt School. Those radicals adapted Freud's theories on the role of sex in human behavior and merged them with Marxism. The counterproposal section examines the role of the family as the foundation for a future God-centered world. The news porti...

To paraphrase Karl Marx and the Communist Manifesto, a specter is haunting China. It is the specter of Historical Nihilism. This episode reveals how the Chinese Communist Party is conducting a major Marxist-Leninist 'rectification' campaign to ruthlessly stamp out what it regards as a major ideological threat called historical nihilism -- code for anyone or anything that opposes Chinese communist ideology and is seeking to expose its murderous past. The counterproposal presents a Judeo...

This episode explores the history of American Marxism heavily influenced by radical Saul Alinsky (1909-1972). His book Rules for Radicals remains a critical revolutionary tract outlining how to gain political power under the rubric of community organizing. A generation of leftist U.S. political leaders, including Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, are among his admirers. Alinsky pioneered the Marxist technique of fueling social unrest, resentment and grievances in pursuit of political power in Am...

Chinese supreme leader Xi Jinping, a neo-Maoist orthodox communist, is reviving the false ideological precept that Marxism-Leninism is scientific. Boasting a doctorate in "scientific socialism," Xi is forcing this dogma on the 98 million members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) who are then spreading it worldwide as part of plans for overthrowing the U.S.-led system of democracy and free markets. For the counterproposal section, this episode further expands on what I'm calling...

The third season of Victory Over Communism is underway and this episode examines Critical Race Theory as the new face of Marxism in the United States. This destructive ideology was modified from its past variants by adding distinctly American features. First, CRT embraces the Marxist philosophy of resentment and hatred of religion but now filtering it through the lens of racism. Second, American Marxists embrace CRT as an adaptation of failed Soviet communist ideology through what is called post...

The outpouring of support for Palestinians, and indirectly Hamas in the aftermath of the Oct. 7 massacre of Jews in Israel is a shocking indication of what has been called the Red-Green alliances -- the European-origin joining of American Marxists and leftists with radical Islamists.

Marxism-Leninism in China is based on Stalin's brand of communism that was embraced by Mao, who combined it with the classical Chinese dynasty system.
