Masters of deceit : $b The story of Communism in America and how to fight it
Hoover, J. Edgar (John Edgar)
Communism -- United States
The communist prides himself on being a revolutionary—and revolutionary
he is in the sense of destruction, terror, and violence. Free man can
learn here too: the truly revolutionary force of history is not material
power but the spirit of religion. The world today needs a true revolution
of the fruitful spirit, not the futile sword. Hypocrisy, dishonesty,
hatred, all these must be destroyed and man must rule by love, charity,
and mercy.
The Party’s effort to create “communist man,” to mold a revolutionary
fighter completely subservient to the Party’s desires, is destined to
fail. The power of bullets, tanks, and repression will bulwark tyranny
just so long. Then, as the Hungarian Freedom Fighters proved, man’s
innate desire for freedom will flare up stronger than ever. In communism
we see what happens when freedom is extinguished. This must give us
renewed zeal to work untiringly to uphold the ideals of justice and
liberty which have made this nation great.
With God’s help, America will remain a land where people still know how
to be free and brave.
GLOSSARY
and
BIBLIOGRAPHY
_Glossary_
This glossary contains terms frequently used by communists. Their
meanings are derived largely from communist “classics,” or books written
by Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Stalin (For a more complete definition of
communist “classics,” see Bibliography, page 328.)
BOLSHEVIK:
1. Refers to a type of communist organization, namely, Lenin’s Party, of
a small, selective membership, comprised of highly trained professional
revolutionaries insolubly linked to each other by the deepest
revolutionary convictions and discipline. The term “bolshevik” stems from
the Russian word _bolshinstvo_, meaning majority. In the 1903 Congress
of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party, a dispute occurred over
whether membership should be tightly controlled (Lenin’s idea) or be open
to sympathizers also. Lenin’s opinion was accepted. Hence, his supporters
became known as Bolsheviks (majority); his opponents as Mensheviks
(minority).
2. Refers to a certain type of Party member, namely, the model, heroic,
ideal type of communist. It is a term of high praise and distinction
for communists, signifying superiority and mastery of the qualities of
revolutionary leadership, efficiency, courage. Hence the terms “bolshevik
courage,” “bolshevik culture,” “bolshevik discipline.” “Bolshevization of
the Party” means to make the Party a model of communist perfection.
