Socialism is planting itself firmly in America—and the Democratic party is its cultivator. The same week Tim Walz said socialism is nothing more than neighborliness, Kamala Harris chose him as her running mate. Today, the Democratic party’s largest rallies are headlines by self-described socialists.  In New York City, an avowed socialist is on path to becoming its next mayor.

Zohran Mamdani is on record aping Marx and Lenin, saying his end goal is “seizing the means of production.”

Saying this socialism is “democratic” is no salve; The China and Cuban constitutions also say they are democratic socialist countries; and the USSR stood for itself as a Socialist Republic.  Because our school textbooks refuse to teach the evils of Marx and socialism but do not hesitate to teach the evils of National Socialism; and because the mainstream press along with other educational outlets venerate Marx, this is what you get.  We can’t shrug our shoulders; we can’t say the Democrats’ nurturing of socialism will keep them out of political pole position. Or It may very well not.
