The gaslighting techniques of the right just muddy the waters further, when discussing communism.
These are the same morons who support a POTUS who vilifies the free press. If one could force these fuckers to spend time in Cuba or North Korea , or even talk to a WW2 vet who fought fascism and understood the Cold War with Russia, they'd understand what communism really is.
Nadar spent the 60s and 70s blasting the auto industry and their CEOs basically vilified him for telling the truth.
And these same morons don't understand that sanitation regulations exist already, just like seatbelts and air bags are not anti car. If a doctor or nurse can wear a mask every fucking day and your cook is required to wash their hands before leaving the bathroom, then they should be able to understand it isn't about oppression or punishment.
The GOP is simply playing off white anxiety and fear of change.
