I heard Zohan, er, Zohran Momdani on Meet the Press saying he isn't a Communist but a Democratic Socialist. What does that even mean?
Well, there is this:
So according to Radosh this is a distinction without a difference.
Here is a rundown on the platform and beliefs of the CPUSA:
[...]
CPUSA refers to itself as a Marxist organization, indicating that communism is its end goal. CPUSA’s platform posits that communism will result in "a society without exploitation, without social classes, without war, without constant attacks on our shared environment, and without any coercive apparatus,” while guaranteeing full democratic freedom and the "humane development of society and the individual—for human happiness.”* "CPUSA Program,” Communist Party USA, April 13, 2020, https://www.cpusa.org/party_info/party-program/#Capitalism.x Nonetheless, CPUSA claims to fully support democracy and the guarantee of personal liberties, including voting rights and full democratic representation. According to CPUSA, capitalism presents the greatest danger to democratic freedom.
[...]
According to CPUSA’s platform, the extreme right has influenced the Republican Party and injected Islamophobia, ultra-nationalism, and authoritarianism into the U.S. government. CPUSA accuses the Trump Administration of being authoritarian while the extreme right seeks to use capitalism to extend its control over the entire country. Further, CPUSA alleges the U.S. government uses the threat of terrorism to curtail individual freedoms, including free speech and assembly.* "CPUSA Program,” Communist Party USA, April 13, 2020, https://www.cpusa.org/party_info/party-program/#Capitalism.x CPUSA obligates all party members to fight against racist ideologies and for full political and social rights for all. CPUSA opposes anti-Semitism and discrimination based on race, religion, nationality, or color.
Where is there any difference at all between what they advocate and what Mamdani advocates?
"Democratic socialism" is a lie and always has been. Inevitably socialists chuck the "have a nice day" smiley mask and show their fangs; it's just a matter of when. Socialism MUST use force to make it happen, as people aren't going to give up what they have so those who don't earn it can have it and that is the cornerstone of all socialism. Socialism goes against human nature. ALL socialism. And it always fails, every time, in the end.
Momdani wants free child care, free buses, a rent and mortgage freeze. He wants government to own grocery stores. He wants to arrest Israeli P.M. Benjamin Netenyahu.
He wants to make New York a no go zone for ICE. He said in his interview that New York has not been hit by a major terrorist attack since 911 BECAUSE OF THEIR SANCTUARY CITY POLICIES! That is perhaps the scariest stupid comment yet.
He said he believed in dignity and safety for all but refused to condemn the abuse of Jews in particular, meaning he sympathizes with the abusers. But then he's a Ugandan Muslim.
So this guy is a Marxist Muslim anti-semite who will utterly destroy New York, as all communists eventually destroy everything they touch. Sadly New Yorkers voted for this clown.
BTW there are almost no Democratic Socialist countries. There are countries that have been governed by socialists in times past - Sweden, France, etc. But they all moved away from socialism; Sweden chucked it back in the seventies, for example, and can be seen as even more capitalistic than the U.S. as it has a much more business-friendly economy, with lower corporate taxes and fewer regulations. Ditto the rest of Scandanavia, which never even played with socialism. France chucked it. Greece chucked it (and went bankrupt from it first). Even China, which is still a COMMUNIST COUNTRY chucked it (much as Russia did in the '20's with the New Economic Program NEP for a time). Democratic socialism is just a new name for a tired, failed policy. It inevitably leads to what we saw in Venezuela, and are seeing now in Nicaragua where the Sandanistas, after retaking power, systematically purged all opposition.
Zohran will morph into Stalhan if given half a chance. He's a dangerous alien who probably should be stripped of his citizenship and deported.
