À propos de cet audio
About Zohran Mamdani’s election, a few thoughts: Listening to his supporters and statements, there is no question as to Marxist loyalty. And, as DSA Founder Michael Harrington wrote, Karl Marx is “a democratic socialist in the most profound sense of the phrase.”
Neither should we be fooled by the DSA’s use of the word “Democratic.” China, Cuba, North Korea, and Venezuela all claim to be Democratic Socialist republics in their constitutions, so did the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (the USSR), in its day. About which: one popular supporter of Mamdani’s, with millions of social media followers, said on election night in New York: he wished the USSR, not the U.S., had won the Cold War.
Fourth, the Democratic party is welcoming of all this into its ranks, with prominent members endorsing it, hardly any denouncing it.
It’s time for all America to take Marxism seriously. After all, the youth movement behind Mamdani, Mamdani himself, and seemingly the bulk of the Democratic party, do.
