“Communism has not died.”

“The sacred celibacy of clerics has also been the victim of conspiracy. Indeed, some churchmen have wretchedly forgotten their own rank and let themselves be converted by the charms and snares of pleasure. This is the aim too of the prevalent but wrong method of teaching, especially in the philosophical disciplines, a method which deceives and corrupts incautious youth in a wretched manner and gives it as drink the poison of the serpent in the goblet of Babylon. To this goal also tends the unspeakable doctrine of Communism, as it is called, a doctrine most opposed to the very natural law. For if this doctrine were accepted, the complete destruction of everyone’s laws, government, property, and even of human society itself would follow.”
— Pope Pius IX
“Communism as I see it has no place in the United States, and the American people will not stand for its teachings.”
— F. Scott Fitzgerald
“All Communist Parties, upon attaining power, have become completely merciless. But at the stage before they achieve power, it is necessary to use disguises.”

“How do you tell a communist?”
— Ronald Reagan
“Kamala is quite literally a communist.”
— Elon Musk
“Fuck communism.”
— Donald J. Trump
