There is nothing close to the Communist Manifesto in politics in this country, and no politician who even approaches it, since Gus Hall.  It's just an excuse to frighten people and it has been for over 100 years, I'm surprised you are resorting to Joe McCarthy's rhetoric.  By the way, very few mainstream Democrats have "accepted" Mamdani, and he would just be a mayor, not the emperor that your guy wants to be.


Missed this one. The crazy thing is, the current regime is WAY closer to a one-party communist state than the Democrats or Mamdami will ever be. 
Steven Bannon calls himself a Leninist. He is not joking. Trump is enamoured of Putin, the product of the KGB and its latest manifestation of ruling by force and terror, which goes back to Stalin's days. All of those NRA types claiming they need a right to carry to defend themselves from government overreach have now donned government badges and masks and are out there terrorising society for shits and giggles.

So this regime is not going to nationalise your property and redistribute wealth on an equitable basis. That is true. 
No, they are just going to remove all checks and balances on the massive accumulation of wealth among a tiny select few, emiserate the rest of us and incarcerate (or just simply shoot) anyone who protests.  Pretty much like Putin. No wonder they are such good friends.

I can only imagine the reaction from this Regime when Mamdani wins the mayor's race. It won't be pretty.

Looks like the actual conversation is getting started.  Still far away from being a done deal.

And still a rebuttal to The Communist Manifesto which is the road map for the leaders of your side.  Exhibit A : Mamdani and his acceptance and endorsement by the mainstream democratic party leaders.


I think you are smarter than to believe that the Communist Manefesto is a roadmap for democrats. If it was, they would have headed down that path decades ago. The mainstream democrats are very much capitalists. Even the more progressive democrats are far, far from communists and at no time have indicated that Marx provided a roadmap for them. Unlike Trump and Vance who have stated they want their authoritarian roadmap to go through - and are backing it up with deeds. You are just spewing bull to justify your guys' actions.

This holds up as well...
The campaign against Project 2025 is based primarily on emotion evoking lies that provide confirmation biases all the reinforcement they need to keep working. The campaign and the lies are working as intended on the targeted.  Emotional responses shut down critical thinking and prevent thoughtful conversations from even beginning.  Which is the primary goal.  Keep people from talking to each other to work through things like this.
