Like a true liberal, "andie" presents Stalin's pogrom against the bolsheviks as "bad communism"--instead of what it was, the definitive triumph of neo-Tsarist counterrevolution; and Truman's loyalty-security program as "bad liberalism"--instead of what it was, the beginning of domestic mobilization, in the name of liberalism, for all-out militarism in furtherance of the Wilsonian-Rooseveltian design of "democratic" US imperialist domination over the entire world.

Ah, the overdetermination of evidence by theory and the underdetermination of theory by evidence.
