You are always being watched - America Is a Communist Country

America Is a Communist Country - Taki's Magazine


When I was 19 I attended college briefly before dropping out and returning to my promising career of shifting aimlessly from job to job. During my initial stint at UMass I had the pleasure of meeting Col. Oliver North.
I shook hands with the man, who had a firm grip and a no-nonsense demeanor. We didn’t speak about the Iran-Contra Affair. Instead, we had a short exchange about the mob braying like zoo creatures attempting to block entry to his talk.
Unsurprisingly, North wasn’t much intimidated by an undisciplined mass of spoiled upper-middle-class kids from Jersey overpaying for the Commonwealth’s land-grant university. Their cacophony could scarcely be heard in the hall, drowned out every time a delivery truck barreled down the road.
