Why not just join the Communist Party of America
“Why not just join the Communist Party of America”
Because joining an existing party would mean fighting the established hierarchy for the lead position. They want to start their own club and be the leaders so other people will join them. It’s all about leadership and control...in a word...ego. Oh, and another word, money. Possibly, power.
There is a huge socialist Bernie wing, but other than some funding by guys like George Soros, they won’t bring in money like the big-league established Democrats because none of them will hold positions where they can grant favors. Favors are how you get money. No favors, nothing but some donations from the disenfranchised commies.
