A coordinated campaign is underway to sanitize, normalize, and romanticize one of history’s most dangerous and lethal ideologies. Newsweek is currently running a “little red test” that asks about oat milk, shorter workweeks, and tote bags — then scores readers on how ready they are for an “American socialist revolution.”
There’s nothing lighthearted about the reality that campaign is trying to hide. Socialist and communist regimes have killed some 100 million people through engineered famines, mass executions, and slave labor camps.
That same ideology is now being sold to Americans by the Democrat Socialists of America and the Radical Left that dominates the Democrat Party. Their agenda — Medicare for All, open borders, mass amnesty, abolishing police and prisons, and the Green New Deal chief among them — carries a staggering price.
A new report from the Council of Economic Advisers puts the ten-year cost of the socialist agenda at $49 trillion, or as much as $400,000 per American household — financed by massive tax hikes that slash wages by nearly 30%, shrink economic output, and drive inflation sky-high. Mortgage rates would soar past 12%, millions of jobs would vanish, and productivity would collapse as empty shelves, rationed care, and the slow grind of state control replace the abundance of American exceptionalism.
Socialism is a sick, perverse system that produces misery and death on an incomprehensible scale. Democrats are deliberately attempting to hasten the destruction of American prosperity, security, and freedom — and if given the chance, they’ll gleefully turn America into a third-world country.
President Donald J. Trump is said it best: “America the Beautiful will NEVER be a Communist Country!!!”
