Within my lifetime there have been two enormous mass murders committed 
by the left overseas, and each of them was simultaneously supported and 
denied by the American left.

I ceased to be a leftist when I saw the flood of refugees fleeing the 
bloodbath in Vietnam and fleeing the Khmer Rouge autogenocide, not so 
much because these enormous crimes horrified me, but because the 
reaction of my fellow leftists to these gigantic crimes horrified me.

And, since that is how they reacted to the liquidation of the kulaks, 
the great leap forward, the Vietnamese bloodbath, and the Cambodian 
autogenocide, that is likely what is coming for America.
