Adam's Neologisms - "EnviroStasi"

The other day I commented on a post by the Gunslinger on some political nut spouting off on 'global warming'. I said that maybe the global warming meme was inserted into popular thought to legitimize government meddling, and to restrict public thought. If we're all 'in this together' in the 'threat' of global warming, then the enviroStasi meddling is 'for our own good'. Nothing to hide, nothing to fear.

Gunslinger liked the term EnviroStasi and kindly mentioned it in a new post. I think we all need to start using terms like Stasi, commie, Marxist and so on as terms of abuse more often. People are too ready to call everything they don't like 'Nazi' or 'fascist', and so not only do the terms lose real meaning in conversation, but the real good which the Nazis and the fascists did is forgotten, and the real and continuing evils which the communists then and now committed and commit are also forgotten. That can't be allowed.

In East Germany alone, the Stasi (communist secret police) created and maintained a police state with the populace in perpetual fear of neighbours and family informing on them. The purges, tortures and disappearances of the Russian communist regime are more reasons the communists deserve to be vilified far more than any 'Nazi' or 'fascist' ever could.

Remember, 'communist' is a dirty word, almost as dirty as the filthy ideology it refers to.
