Examining the long march to Communism in California shows that it took Progressives over a hundred years to achieve their totalitarian California dream.
In 1879, the NY Times reported on the new California Constitution which was instigated by… wait for it… the Labor Party. Wouldn’t you know, community organizers peddling their Communism way back then. In the article, “Communism in California,” notice that their oppressive, totalitarian dream was instituted through taxation and taking control of land and railways. Does this sound similar to what they’re doing at an accelerated pace today? It certainly parallels what Nancy Pelosi brought to the House floor in 1992, which she called “Agenda 21″ and said it is the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development program.
Most notable in the 1879 NY Times article is the author’s apparent realization of the danger of enacting a mild form of Socialism that would lead to a Communist California, while at the same time finding comfort in the fact that it’s happening in a “distant part of the country.” The author may have presumed it would prove disastrous before infecting other States and spreading throughout the US like a violent and deadly virus. Little did the author know that it would be emanating from our very own White House, with an iron fist, within 130 years.
COMMUNISM IN CALIFORNIA (Published May 9, 1879)

Excerpts:
“… it is clear that the efforts of the conservative people of California have not been able to stem the tide which has lately set toward Communism in the Golden State. It must be said that the experiment of a mild form of Socialism is now about to be tried in one of the States of the Republic. Perhaps it is just as well that it should be tried in a distant part of the country, and in a State which always makes much of its own griefs, as well as of its own advantages. There never was a serious desire for a remodeling of the Constitution of California until the so-called Labor Party became an important factor in the politics of the State…”
“The adoption of the new Constitution, absurd as it may be in some of its provisions, is the manifestation of a rebellion against what is called “the tyranny of capital.” It is a violent remedy for actual ills. It is a practical overturning of the principles that have governed American commercial life ever since the foundation of the Republic. Many requirements of the new Constitution are impossible of execution. Others will be evaded by corrupt officers. But enough will remain to bring disaster and financial distress upon the people.”
Many lament what California has become and, despite the beauty of this State, people and businesses are leaving as fast as they can. On the other hand, Communists like Van Jones and the Union leaders who control this State enjoy calling California their “home” while they live in the lap of luxury courtesy of people like George Soros and Barack Obama (through our tax dollars, of course).
Here is Communist California today… (h/t MamaKat)(Pictures and Video by Ringo and Zombie)
The communists freely and proudly declare their affiliation. And SEIU has no problem marching arm-in-arm with them.
SEIU devoted $28 million to Obama’s campaign, making SEIU “the organization that spent the most to help Barack Obama get elected president.”
Furthermore, who is Obama’s favorite White House guest and one of his closest confidants? The individual who has visited the Obama White House the most: SEIU President Andy Stern, who has visited 53 times. Obama is closely linked with SEIU. EIU is closely linked with communists. You do the math.
One of the SEIU leaders picked up a Communist flag and led a contingent of rank-and-file SEIU members. Everyone was OK with that.
In case you were wondering what SEIU was saying during all of this, there is a video of SEIU chanting: “Legalization or REVOLUTION!” Clear enough?
But in recent months, as the accusation has started to gain traction, the new leftist tactic has become: “What’s so bad about socialism after all? You’re demonizing a very popular and respectable ideology!”

Yes, communist influence in California began long, long ago. For just one example, Anaheim was founded in 1857 (by Germans, of course) as a communist village.
Hi Arlen, Based on the New York Times article, it looks like people tried to defeat it, but they just couldn’t do it. Do you think that’s why so many communists and like-minded politicians dominate California? It sure has swept across the country in the past 130+ years, hasn’t it?
I just can’t understand how people can seek oppression instead of enjoying and appreciating individual Liberty.
… their nuts, they dont see opression they see a handout because their too stupid and lazy to work.
It becomes apparent that communists settled in America, chiefly from Germany, in the 1800′s in a strategically planned fashion, especially in New York, Chicago (and Wisconsin, into Minnesota and Iowa), and California — also in pockets scattered throughout the nation, often in rural communities.
I believe it is no mere happenstance that this financed and coordinated movement, supposedly of poor people (occurring since before Marx and Engels) and the Rothschild complex come from the same place at the same time.
They’ve been incredibly successful. Their ‘business model’ works. Conservatives need to adapt their business model (minus the evilness) and ‘spread Constitutional conservatism’, especially to our youth and through media. I think the Tea Party is the start of that, but we’ve got a lot more to do.
Hollywood, Communist Hollywood, has diverted all Gulag history into the dust bin. Communism, the word is not even allowed. All the top brass control thinking in Hollywood. Look at the stark record: several hundred films produced showing the German socialists, and not a single major film in all these years showing the ultimate of all totalitsrisn dictatorship hells, of Stalin’s Soviet Socialist massive slave labor prison, taking up thousands of square miles of the Gulag Archipelago, and continuing its inhuman slavery economy long after the end of WWII. Yes, there plenty of books to prove it, BUT NOT A WORD FROM THE MAGIC FILM WORLD HOLLYWOOD.
The single best book to read on the subject of Communism ingeniously creeping into this great country, is “KEYNES AT HARVARD – Economic Deception as a Political Credo”, 1957, by ZYGMUND DOBBS, and is wonderfully, A FREEDOWNLOAD http://www.keynesatharvard.org. It shows the exact day when Marxists decided to use the word “liberal” as a cover-up for Communism……..and they got away with it, were able to infiltrate with amazing deception. A deception that simply could not have taken place had they been open and called themselves Communists. It is simply using the word, liberal, and later progressive, too, that have been elegantly deceptive FAKE ID passes for these destructive, enslaving criminals. There is a way to change the tide of Communism and solve this truly overwhelming problem. We have the answer and will be happy to reveal it to GULAGBOUND.COM
And congratulations! Gulagbound is one of the best titles ever created because it is, in proven fact, the ultimate goal of all the deceivers, proven by the mafia media’s own careful censorship of this terrifying end result of cancerous communism consuming our culture.
OMG! What happened to America?
