Rachel Maddow’s Fans Are VERY Upset That She Said Communism Doesn’t Work!

Posted on July 22, 2014 by soopermexican 28 Comments

On tonight’s Rachel Maddow show on MSNBC, the stout host angered a lot of her viewers when she dared to insult Communism during a long segment where she went over a quick survey of the worst aspects of Russian history. Many of her brainless zombie followers just passively went along, not realizing that in 2012 they were guffawing like jackals at Mitt Romney for saying Russia was a threat.

But quite a few dedicated commies found this comment unbearable!

“Turns out communism is a pretty terrible way to run countries…send your hatemail to rachel@msnbc.com” #maddow

Yes, she actually said that on her show! She knew all her little commie followers would get upset so she did add “send hatemail to this address.”

It didn’t take long:

::Sending Hate Mail:: Dear Ms. #Maddow … AUTHORITARIAN communism is a lousy way to run a country. Democratic communism has not been tried.

@maddowblog You, Dr. Maddow, are one of my heroes.But, no nation ever claimed true Communism. Socialism was a "stepping stone".

There has never been a Communist State. #maddow

Communism in practice as far away from theory as NBA players are from amatuerism. Come thru it, but bear absolutely no resemblance. #maddow

@msnbc @maddow please teach your viewers the real sociology of Marx, not the made up BS. Cuba never a true communist country. Dictatorship

@maddow Rachel, let's be clear. Communism never really existed. Those nations were dictatorships wrapped in communist rhetoric. Realisism.

@Maddow – Rachel: Maybe you're too young, but your education SHOULD make up for that. "Communism is a bad way to run countries". HUH? –>>

@Maddow ……The reason former communist nations had such a hard time was because of a CONSTANT barrage of sabotage from US. …..—>>

@Maddow … Socialist / Communist nations had to spend MOST of it's energy / treasury just to duck illegal US CIA interventions / sabotage.

But is that true –communism does not work? OR was it co-opted by dictators/despots? Is Socialist-Democracy different? #maddow

I can't believe #maddow would play into this anti Russia/ communist propaganda crap! Seriously?

— Veronica Padilla (@VPadillaArt) July 23, 2014

Communism in practice didn't come about the way Marx and Engels said it would have to in order to work. Succes is an open question. #maddow

The USSR wasn't really communist or socialist. #maddow

— JohnR (@AnglerArcher) July 23, 2014

@maddow are you stating that Communism the way Marx wrote about is Russia- they are dictatorships with state capitalism – he saw UK not them

— Merle A. Jacobs,PhD (@DrMerle) July 23, 2014

Rachel Maddow "turns out tho that communism in practise is a pretty terrible way to run a countries"… yuh, capitalism isnt too good either

— #TeamPoor TurnLeft (@TurnLeft2016) July 23, 2014

Communist countries never really practiced economic philosophy espoused by Marx. They were totalitarian regimes, plain & simple… #maddow

— ThatDarnCat (@NotDexVonFrisch) July 23, 2014

can't really tell what her point is but it seems like Rachel Maddow's first story tonight is several stories of anti-Russian scare-mongering

— t. (@tyelland) July 23, 2014

Unbelievable. Made mistake of turning on @maddow for shits & giggles& it's nonstop Goebbels type anti-Russian prop…#makesmewanttolovePutin

— Dirty Nimbus (@AlcibiadesSlim) July 23, 2014

@maddow monologue on #Putin #Russia& #Communism on Tues Show was 17Mins of nothingness.Hope she knows US spies on other countries too.#MH17

— Abiodun Adedeji (@Dzeroseven) July 23, 2014

Maddow just drew a line from Marx & Engels to Putin & #MH17. Where in the Communist Manifesto did they call for shooting down planes?

— Ted Hamm (@HammerDaily) July 23, 2014

no one saw that coming lol RT @tylermgraves: That @maddow opening just now had me glued to my TV. Are we seeing a rebirth of the Cold War?
