This is a very thought-provoking documentary that chronicles the rise of Soviet-Style 'Communism' in the United States.
I don't entirely share the orthodox religious beliefs of some of the commentators - or their faith in the 'bible'. Nor do I share the rose-tinted view of 'capitalism' that the documentary (implicitly) promotes. But their fears of Communism, it seems to me, are absolutely well-founded.
Brief note on terminology: Words are important - so I want to clarify ... When I use the term 'Communism' here I am referring to a centrally-planned economy - or 'State Socialism'. I have no problem with 'Voluntary Socialism' - at all. (IMO this is what true religion aims for - i.e. The 'Golden Rule'.)
Anyway ... This phenomenon - the spread of 'Communism' - is not confined to the US. Similar things are happening throughout Europe.
You can observe it in the use of extremely heavy propaganda on state-owned media, the drive towards a centrally-planned economy, and the indoctrination of children in public schools.
