John Birch Society - Is Everything Communism?

Robert Welch always denied that the John Birch Society had any anti-Semitic leaning. The Nazis also felt that communism was brought down on societies by hidden actors who weakened the state enough for a disease to advance upon it. Pierce's main issue with the Birch Society became that it wasn't willing to discuss the Jews or explicitly racist issues. He later found out that the two topics on which he wanted an intelligent discussion, race and Jews, were precisely the two topics Birch Society members were forbidden to discuss.
