Hey, Kids: Communism Isn’t Cool

Posted on | August 24, 2019 | 2 Comments

Why do so many young Americans hate their own country? Why does Hasan Piker think himself clever for obscenely smearing Dan Crenshaw as a warmongering tool of the “military industrial complex”? I blame Communism. In fact, I blame one particular Communist, Howard Zinn. When the FBI file on his Stalin-era association with the CPUSA was made public in 2010, I wrote “The Case Against Howard Zinn” for The Americam Spectator, summarizing the evidence of Zinn’s subversive activity. Yet the influence of Zinn’s anti-American ideology has actually increased since he reached room temperature (and thereby became the only kind of “good Communist”). Now, historian Mary Grabar has published Debunking Howard Zinn: Exposing the Fake History That Turned a Generation against America, which ought to be assigned reading for your back-to-school teenagers. (Hat-tip: Instapundit.)
