Democratic Socialists of America Leaders Say 'Communism Is Good'

Multiple Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) leaders are openly endorsing communism on social media, indicating that the already far-left organization has taken a sharp left turn.

DSA has seen its ranks swell from 8,000 to over 42,000 dues-paying members since President Donald Trump was elected. In November of 2017, 15 DSA members were elected in school board, city council, alderman and other local races across the country, joining 20 other DSA members already in office.

The party got a major boost last Tuesday when DSA-endorsed candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez ousted 10-term incumbent Rep. Joe Crowley in New York's 14th Congressional District.

Nor surprising. To the left good is evil and evil is good.

Examples?

[TheTimeOfMan]

42,000.

LOL

Get ready for the conservative (red) wave in a couple of months. This is the most optimistic I have been in 15 years.

The Communist Party USA has been completely replaced by the Demonrat Party.

[EdnaMode]

Why don’t they move to a communist country then?

[dp0622]

would your post any other article that had a group of 40,000 members in a country of 350,000,000?

along with others who are harping on this nonsense, take a pill

Yup,it’s so good that there’s not a zoo animal to be found in Venezuela...the ones that were once there having been eaten by “the peasants”.

Every Democrat should be asked "do you think America should become a communist country?"

Then when they waffle on that they should be asked "what changes should be made to the Constitution to bring communism to America?"

religious mentality: big government is equivalent to an omniscient, omnipotent God that can create heaven on earth

Killing human babies good. Killing old giraffes/lions/gorillas bad.

[bgill]

Insanity.

100 million dead? I think once the full scope of what Josef Stalin and Mao Zedong did during their reigns of power in the 20th Century, the death toll may be more like 200 million. There are a lot of deaths from mass shootings, labor camps, forced exile and deliberate famine still accounted for.

[oblomov]

That would require initiative and planning.

‘Communism Is Good’. It isn’t good, it’s f*&^ing great for the power players at the top! You get 99% of society to work and sacrifice for you! It’s awesome!

[Telepathic Intruder]

The 100 million are the ones we know about. It’s hard to tell how many people communists have killed because they prefer to do it in secret. The Soviets used to haul away people in busses disguised as ordinary trucks. No one was fooled in the towns they passed through, though.

In other news, the ski season closed Monday, at the Tuck [Mt Washington]. Officially. Gotta find something else to do.
