Some people say that current culture movements like the DEI, LGBTQ+, transgender, etc agenda push to change culture in the military have nothing to do with communism.
Author and Professor Paul Kengor says:
“If you look at the end of the Communist Manifesto, everyone remembers the lines, “Workers of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but your chains.”
But in the last two paragraphs, there’s two really crucial lines that everybody forgets:
“Communism abolishes the present state of things” said Marx and Engels.
Can you imagine one of my students turning in a paper that says, “I will argue for the abolition of the present state of things”?
The communists openly declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions.
Is there anything more radical than that?

The Devil and Karl Marx: Communism’s Long March of Death, Deception, and Infiltration
About the lecture: “Thus Heaven I’ve forfeited, I know it full well. My soul, once true to God, is chosen for Hell.” So wrote Karl Marx in an 1837 poem. Those lines were, for Marx, at least partly biographical.
Likewise disturbing were his openings lines in his Communist Manifesto: “A specter is haunting Europe, the specter of communism. All of the powers of old Europe have entered into a holy alliance to exorcise this specter.”
Karl Marx unleashed more than a mere economic program. The man was less an economist than a revolutionary.
Marx had a favorite line from Mephistopheles, the devil character in Goethe’s Faust: “Everything that exists deserves to perish.”
What Marx wanted was not a mere economic revolution; he wanted a revolution against human nature, to annihilate the entire order, to burn down the house, to undermine “all religion, all morality.”
He called for the “forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions.”
What Marx advocated had a destructive dimension, a spiritual dimension, even a diabolical dimension.
In his latest book, The Devil and Karl Marx: Communism’s Long March of Death, Deception, and Infiltration, Dr. Paul Kengor explores this chilling side of Marx and the Marxist revolution that still rages today.
Join us to hear Professor Kengor on this fascinating and disturbing subject.
