    The red scare legacy definitely helped. But a whole lot of the current crop of libs somehow also constantly seem to confuse the USSR for the Russian Republic, hence all the blueanon memes about the GOP being communist, and the pictures of Putin with a hammer and sickle.

      My guess is they’re so normie-brained that they don’t know that there still are communists out there, think they’re a joke, and/or have no idea what communism really is.

      Reminds me of “history buff” guys who really love Soviet memorabilia and shit, but they’re libs.
