Solid post. The reality of where tyranny leads needs to be shown to the brainwashed public constantly; the media (famously including the NY Times, which whitewashed the mega-murdering Soviet regime from the start), most of the education system, and much else in the Establishment have been soft-pedaling the horrors of Communism and even promoting it for generations.
EVERY Communist regime is and has been a mass-murder machine of epic dimensions.
Plenty of non-Communist regimes have also; POWER (as Tolkien described it) is the problem, although Communism includes a particularly robust mind parasite designed to get the targeted victims (i.e., everyone other than those at the top) excited about creating the "Workers Paradise" that (surprise!) turns out to be a prison-and-death-camp society where EVERYTHING is owned and controlled by a small, murderous clique.
Probably the best resource on the topic is The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression
-- $64.75 in Hardback (and no Kindle version available), but if you have the cash and an interest in the truth about Communism, this book -- written by a group of left-leaning European scholars and published by Harvard University Press right at the end of the 20th Century -- is a must-have for your bookshelf. Includes (sometimes horrific) photographs.
From the description at Amazon:
As the death toll mounts―as many as 25 million in the former Soviet Union, 65 million in China, 1.7 million in Cambodia, and on and on―the authors systematically show how and why, wherever the millenarian ideology of Communism was established, it quickly led to crime, terror, and repression. An extraordinary accounting, this book amply documents the unparalleled position and significance of Communism in the hierarchy of violence that is the history of the twentieth century.
A friend of mine 20 years ago said the same thing, 'they are going to model the nwo on China.' - quote.
Your friend was correct.
He was. I was unsure at the time, but it also made sense.
Amen. This was already becoming clear in the 90s

From the description at Amazon:
MSM are paid well for their deceptions and betrayals.
They may use China's model, but they would end up trying to compete with them for world dominance.
Now ask who really controls China.
This should be the # 1 story people are discussing and organizing strongly against.
They practiced and perfected it in China . Who really controls China ?
Read Q posts about the CCP! What is being shared here is clear from Q's posts!
Thank you, I did come across that. Great reminder.
