Bingo. The Post WW2 USA understood communism. It is a federal crime to be a communist: 50 U.S. Code § 841

Senator McCarthy abused this law and we have been afraid to use the word “communism” ever since. Therefore, it took over our country.

The former head of the CIA, John Brennan, was a communist. Kamala Harris’ entire platform as candidate was communism, except she never used that word. “Equity” is the new euphemism for communism.

Here is the federal law:

50 U.S. Code § 841 – Findings and declarations of fact

The Congress finds and declares that the Communist Party of the United States, although purportedly a political party, is in fact an instrumentality of a conspiracy to overthrow the Government of the United States. It constitutes an authoritarian dictatorship within a republic, demanding for itself the rights and privileges accorded to political parties, but denying to all others the liberties guaranteed by the Constitution. Unlike political parties, which evolve their policies and programs through public means, by the reconciliation of a wide variety of individual views, and submit those policies and programs to the electorate at large for approval or disapproval, the policies and programs of the Communist Party are secretly prescribed for it by the foreign leaders of the world. The peril inherent in its operation arises not from its numbers, but from its failure to acknowledge any limitation as to the nature of its activities, and its dedication to the proposition that the present constitutional Government of the United States ultimately must be brought to ruin by any available means, including resort to force and violence. Holding that doctrine, its role as the agency of a hostile foreign power renders its existence a clear present and continuing danger to the security of the United States. It is the means whereby individuals are seduced into the service of the world Communist movement, trained to do its bidding, and directed and controlled in the conspiratorial performance of their revolutionary services. Therefore, the Communist Party should be outlawed.

50 U.S. Code § 842 – Proscription of Communist Party, its successors, and subsidiary organizations

The Communist Party of the United States, or any successors of such party regardless of the assumed name, whose object or purpose is to overthrow the Government of the United States, or the government of any State, Territory, District, or possession thereof, or the government of any political subdivision therein by force and violence, are not entitled to any of the rights, privileges, and immunities attendant upon legal bodies created under the jurisdiction of the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof; and whatever rights, privileges, and immunities which have heretofore been granted to said party or any subsidiary organization by reason of the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof, are terminated: Provided, however, That nothing in this section shall be construed as amending the Internal Security Act of 1950, as amended [50 U.S.C. 781 et seq.]

50 U.S. Code § 843 – Application of Internal Security Act of 1950 to members of Communist Party and other subversive organizations; “Communist Party” defined

(a)Whoever knowingly and willfully becomes or remains a member of (1) the Communist Party, or (2) any other organization having for one of its purposes or objectives the establishment, control, conduct, seizure, or overthrow of the Government of the United States, or the government of any State or political subdivision thereof, by the use of force or violence, with knowledge of the purpose or objective of such organization shall be subject to all the provisions and penalties of the Internal Security Act of 1950, as amended [50 U.S.C. 781 et seq.], as a member of a “Communist-action” organization.

50 U.S. Code § 844 – Determination by jury of membership in Communist Party, participation, or knowledge of purpose

In determining membership or participation in the Communist Party or any other organization defined in this Act, or knowledge of the purpose or objective of such party or organization, the jury, under instructions from the court, shall consider evidence, if presented, as to whether the accused person:

Yes, 50 U.S. Code § 841 is still part of the United States Code. This section is known as the “Findings and declarations of fact” from the Communist Control Act of 1954, which officially declared the Communist Party of the United States as an instrumentality of a conspiracy to overthrow the government. However, the practical enforcement and relevance of this law have significantly diminished over time, especially after several court decisions and shifts in political climate:

• Legal Precedents: Over the years, various court decisions have impacted the way laws like the Communist Control Act are enforced. For example, the Supreme Court case Yates v. United States (1957) significantly narrowed the scope of the Smith Act (which the Communist Control Act relates to), making it more difficult to prosecute individuals for mere advocacy of communism without direct incitement to action.
• Political and Cultural Shifts: The political environment has changed since the 1950s, with the decline of McCarthyism and the Cold War, reducing the active enforcement of such laws against political parties or individuals based on their political beliefs or affiliations.
• Current Status: While the law remains on the books, it’s largely considered dormant. There have been no significant prosecutions or legal actions based on this section in contemporary times. It’s more of an artifact of a different era in American legal and political history rather than an actively used piece of legislation.

The text of 50 U.S.C. § 841 remains part of the U.S. Code, but its application today would likely face significant legal challenges based on First Amendment rights and modern interpretations of free speech and association.
