A Book to Fight Leftists With

Following my post on “Books to Fight Creationists With,” a reader emailed today to ask whether I could recommend a book or books to combat leftist propaganda in the same way; specifically the very common moonbat talking point that “real communism has never been tried.”

In a way, this is a much broader issue than the creationism-evolution war, because you get into topics like collectivism vs. personal responsibility and other very messy subjects that aren’t exactly amenable to solutions that can be tested in a scientific way.

But if we limit the discussion to communism, there is one book that everyone should read, for a true perspective on the soul-and-body-destroying nature of this ideology:

The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression.

It’s not easy reading, and it may even cause you to break down in tears at some points. But there’s no more effective refutation of the lies promoted by Marxists and communists than this powerful catalog of murder.

 Frank says:

There were 45 men in the jail cell, the toilet and shower had never been cleaned, the temperature was 110 degrees so you couldn't sleep night or day, there were roaches in the oatmeal, sadistic guards, and everything that was nice. -- Zappa 1969 interview. This had happened during the days of Studio Z in Cucamonga (1963). Frank was released on bail (his father took out a bank loan to pay for it). Frank had been busted for "conspiracy to commit pornography," after making a silly recording of suggestive sexual sounds (giggling edited out) for someone who had asked him to provide a "special" tape recording for a stag night. That someone turned out to be Detective Willis of the San Bernadino Vice Squad. Their conversation was recorded by a hidden microphone and this was used as evidence at Zappa's trial.
