Socialism is back from the dead, making it critical to understand its tenets. That's why Red Flags Press exists.

Our books and the 18 papers are filled with 100s of damning quotes from celebrated socialists. It's the flaws of socialism straight from the horse's mouth.

Many of the facts in our materials will likely come as a surprise. For example, did you know today's socialists say Karl Marx counts as a "democratic socialist"? This despite his calling our rights "rubbish," despite his being a self-proclaimed "communist," etc. Marx, the "democratic socialist," is one of the facts that show "democratic" socialism is a misleading slogan for plain old socialism.

The reality is that "democratic" socialism is an absurd concept — as absurd as "democratic" fascism. Both socialism and fascism are fundamentally anti-liberal philosophies. Both demand compulsory duty and call for a society of suppression.

Let us demonstrate why "democratic" socialism is inherently authoritarian. We'll mail you a free copy of our new paper, "'Democratic' Socialism, As Ludicrous As 'Democratic' Fascism."

As is true of all 18 RFP papers, "'Democratic' Socialism, As Ludicrous As 'Democratic' Fascism" is also free online.

Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we're sending thousands of free copies of our books to student groups across America.

Student group leaders: Please reach out if you're interested in receiving gratis copies to distribute to your group's members. We'll follow up promptly.

Everyone else: We'd be honored if you'd support our mission to educate young Americans about the dangers of socialism. Donations from people like you make it possible to send free materials to student groups. We're a 501(c)(3); your contribution is tax-deductible. Thank you for considering!
