Has anyone on here actually read this bullshit?

So let me get this straight: he joins Communist Party USA in the 1920s out of his own nihilism and hatred of the world, gets suckered into being a paper boy in the alleged communist underground, then his wife refuses to get an abortion which causes him to change his values entirely and abandon communism only to become a rat for the US government? Am I missing something here?

Were Americans in the 1950s really that fucking gullible they can't see how his story is full of holes?
>>
His review of Atlas Shrugged is a fucking banger

No one here has actually read

Wasn’t this Ronald Reagan’s favourite book?

Or maybe he has a homosexual relationship with Alger Hiss while both of them were younger and flirt with being communists. Hiss goes on to reach a high level position within the State Department and Nixon exploits this to show how our government is being subverted. In reality there is no subversion and it’s all just political theater mixed with some bitterness on Chambers towards being jilted.

Yes, I’ve also read that Chambers was secretly queer from other sources.

Summarize it for us.

His accusations have all been substantiated though.

Proof?

I read it. What exactly is unbelievable? The part where a disaffected youth is seduced into a utopian movement? The part where he slowly becomes disillusioned when he sees how corrupt and vicious they really are? The part where becoming a father changes a man to take responsibility? Are you so cut off from humanity that these are “plot holes” to you?
