Today's right-wingers lost their nemesis more than two decades ago with the collapse of the "World-Wide Communist Conspiracy,"
This is one of the most asinine comments I've ever seen, which reveals an all-too typical indifference of the American Left with its total indifference for Communism as a mass murdering ideology that left a death toll ten times higher than the one that had a swastika for an emblem. -

Communism isn't a 'mass murdering ideology' any more than 'capitalism' is. Not that any country has ever had true/pure communism or capitalism.
The people that died under various so-called 'Communist' regimes were killed by murderous tyrants and I'm not aware of murderous tyrants being a key part of communist ideology.
The real problem with Communism is that it only works if EVERYONE agrees to it but that just goes against basic human nature. As soon as someone tries to cheat (the Tyrants I mentioned) it starts to fall apart. -

Uh, no. Communism requires mass-murder to bring about its end results. Stalin's deliberate starvation of the Ukraine and Mao's "Great Leap Forward" as well the Cambodian Holocaust were the direct results of trying to implement Communist ideology in its purest form. Communism fails because it is rotten to the core at its base and requires totalitarianism to bring about its results.

This thread is about Dan O'Herlihy's lack of mental capacity regarding Soviet Russia and its many depravities. It'd be nice to see you stick to the subject.
Too bad O'Herlihy had to be so dense because it was my pleasure to enjoy recently his moving performance in the first season Christmas episode of "Dr. Kildare".
