Blinded by Hate

The Western left has spent decades romanticizing brutal, oppressive regimes simply because they stood in opposition to the West. From Stalin’s USSR to Mao’s China, from Castro’s Cuba to North Vietnam, these self-proclaimed champions of human rights have willfully ignored unimaginable atrocities, choosing instead to sing praises about equality and progress. They flocked to Potemkin Villages—fake, staged utopias designed to dupe outsiders—while millions starved, were imprisoned, or massacred in the name of their twisted vision of collectivism.

When Stalin’s policies caused the deaths of millions through famine and purges, the Western left swooned over the supposed worker’s paradise. As Mao wiped out tens of millions in re-education camps, they gushed about stability and positive thinking. And when Fidel Castro’s regime forced two million Cubans to flee in desperation, they waved their flags and shouted, “Viva la Revolución!” They didn’t just excuse tyranny—they applauded it, all because it stood against America and the values that built the West.

Now, this same mindset infects their relationship with Islamist regimes. Despite the fact that radical Islamists represent everything the left claims to oppose—oppression of women, execution of dissenters, zero tolerance for LGBTQ rights—they stand silent or even defend them. Why? Because it’s anti-Western, and that’s all it takes to earn their twisted loyalty. They naively believe that once the West falls, they’ll finally build their Marxist utopia, blind to the fact that Islamists would slaughter them without hesitation.

The left has made it clear that their moral compass is not guided by truth, justice, or freedom—it’s guided by hatred for the West and a desire to see it crumble. They’re too blinded by their loathing to recognize that the regimes they support are even more oppressive than the systems they claim to fight. It’s time to call out this hypocrisy and stand up for values rooted in real freedom and human dignity.
