I Was a Teenage Communist!
. . . but for all you young people out there there's still a chance to stop the spreading of the evil spectre of Communism.

I would like to dedicate the seeding of this fine film to all those wonderful folks over at Fox News who are valiantly warning us of...the true & present danger of Communism . . .in these perilous times in which we live!!
Warning: I've seen a lot of really lousy movies in my life, but this is beyond a doubt one of the absolute worst!
However, it does contain a vital message for all true patriots that is even more relevant today.
(Especially for people who love Fox news and other assorted fans of former president Trump).
If you can't bear watching the whole thing, fast forward to the part toward the end (at about 12:18) to catch the vital message for all true American Patriots!
Yes, its satire!
(Or is it?)
Bald guy with the beard looks familiar ... a John Durham lookalike ... ?
I think you're right.
If I might add to that warning:
Viewer discretion advised - cigarette smoking!
I was a commie once for about 5 minutes in the 1960s, but the commie gal who I was trying to pick up just pointed to me and shrieked 'Monarchist'! It was really hard to get laid back then.

I've had similar experiences!
(Many, lol)
Until I found out the secret-- to succeed you not only had to be a Commie, but also had to be a hippie (meaning just dress like one, have really long hair, use words like "groovy" a lot, etc)
Oh-- and do a lot of drugs. Smoking Pot was good...dropping Acid even better!
Another useful tactic-- carrying around a copy of Ginsberg's Howl in your pocket.
Living in Montreal you had to carry around Camus's L’Étranger or if you wandered into an English neighborhood Kerouac's On the Road.
Perfect...LOL
Thanks for starting my day with the biggest laugh out loud I've had for a while.
You are a tough one!
Actually I was laughing at your problem with getting laid - I couldn't open your SCTV post. But being scared of Communism is laughable in my opinion as well. However, it works well for American officials who are in a position to milk the American taxpayers with "The SCARE".
Of course there's no need to worry-- because help is on the way!
After Dark 3.2 Screen-saver: Flying Toaster Song
(I'm referring, of course, to the fact that its almost August-- and everyone knows that former president and "still a grifter" Donald Trump will be "Reinstated" in August!
(So fear not all ye patriotic Americans and Trump sycophants).
Free pillows for everyone.
I gave this a thumbs up just because I liked the title.
Tragically, this is the level on which socialism is addressed today. The fear tactics [the enemy lurking around the corner] has lost no relevance. And the Lenin look-alike? Oh PLEEASE!
Not a word about social class or class struggle. I gather this flick was produced in the US ...

Agreed...too many Muggles!
(But then there's this):
Maybe the director of the skit was an Andy Warhol fan.
Those poor creatures...maybe there's been too much emphasis on (allegedly) trying to drain all those swamps?
No, no, SAVE THE OKEFENOKEE.
Well, you know what they say:
The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles
Commonism...Haha
Too bad Russ Reilly was a low down dirty commie he could have been bigger than Elvis.
I was trying to figure out who that was. I couldn't place him.
