Socialist Patriotism: America vs. America

Grayson and Henry from the Infrared Collective put the final nail in the coffin to the claim, made by various self-proclaimed American ’communists’ and ’socialists,’ that socialism is incompatible with American patriotism. They break down the fundamental inter-relatedness between socialism and patriotism, as well as demonstrate, by reference to textual and historical facts, that patriotism has always been a given and self-evident reality for socialists. It has only been very recently, as a result of the influence of the New Left that American leftists, influenced by cold war propaganda, have made socialism and communism anti-patriotic and anti-social catchwords. Special thanks to Caleb Maupin, who has, often entirely on his own, been forwarding and defending these same ideas as early as 2016.
