Red Star All Over
on September 29, 2014 at 5:21 pm
I was surprised to discover this morning that the Maryland Democratic Party official Instagram Account was following me. I was less surprised that when they did, the Democrats decided to comment on a three month old photo from the Larry Hogan primary victory celebration .
I was much more surprised, when I was perusing the list of accounts that they were following, to see this:
You’ll notice that the very first account listed that the Maryland Democratic Party official Instagram Account is following is an account called “communism_redstar “, And you’ll note that the accompanying images all glorify Communism and the murderous types who implemented it.
I have absolutely not idea why the Democrats would follow such an account from their “official” Instagram site, but I’d sure be curious to hear their reasoning….
Trending: President Trump Must Be Reelected
UPDATE: Less than one hour after this post was published, the Maryland Democratic Party account unfollowed “communism_redstar.”
The Maryland Democratic Party hasn’t given a heck of a lot of indiciation as to why they were following an account glorifying communism in the first place.
