Summary

Communism, to many idealistic Americans, is a beautiful idea. But experience shows that every time the charming theory meets reality, mass killings follow. Bill Whittle just came off the set of his new series on the Soviet Union, and the intense research and writing on what happens when people embrace the Communists, assures him that the ideology fails not just because Russia "didn't do it right." Mass slaughter is not a bug, but a feature. Bill Whittle and Alfonzo Rachel create two new episodes of The Virtue Signal each week thanks to funding from donors and Members.

0:00.0	We all run ourselves ragged trying to protect these people from themselves.
0:25.0	Hi, everybody. Welcome to the Virtue Signal. I'm Bill Whittle with my friend Alfonso Rachel.
0:30.6	And as you probably know, and Zoe certainly knows. I've been out for about a week. I've been recording video for what was originally an audio-only series for the Daily Wire called The Cold War, What We Saw.
0:38.6	So I just wrapped up seven days of shooting consecutively and 13 episodes.
0:46.4	And I suspect the total runtime for this thing is going to be no less than 20 hours,
0:51.1	22 hours.
0:51.7	So it's a lot of stuff.
0:53.5	And thank you for your patience and continue to support.
0:56.6	It's good to be back. As though I was, very last thing I did when I finally hung up the Cold War coat and tie and stuff after lots and lots and lots.
1:08.1	It's 108 pages of teleprompter reading I had to do when I finally hung up the
1:13.7	The thing the last thing I did going out of there was they just did some interview interviews and questions for promotional purposes
1:20.8	And one of them was
1:23.8	What makes you what made you so passionate about know, wanting to talk about the Cold War?
1:29.2	And my response was, well, the further away it gets, the more cosmetics that get applied to
1:36.6	communism and socialism. The thing to me that was the most important goal of that series was to
1:43.5	continuously show people that the Cold War
1:46.1	was not Coke versus Pepsi, you know, two roughly morally equal, you know, empires and
1:51.0	imperialists and all the rest of it, you know, for this what we were, I was very clear about
1:57.5	America when America was at fault, but there's no comparison between the two.
2:02.3	This was an empire of murder.
2:13.7	And what I realized is that it is obviously intentional to not only not only not to report what evil the Soviets did, but to not report on anything that the United States did
