Socialists took over the Democrat Party in 1896. This is nothing new.

Ah, Key of David. I don’t agree with them on a lot of things, especially Herbert W. Armstrong teachings.

They can see the end of the Church Age approaching, however. I’ll give them that part.

Democratic Socialism?>>>>

No it is not. Its Nationalist Socialism.
A Utopia with no borders where everything is “free?”

The democratic party wants a Utopia which can only be fashioned in a totalitarian state.The democrat party is no longer “democratic.” Its totalitarian.

We must end their nonsense at the ballot box or alternatively, with the bullet box.

You want to read about liberal fascism?

Its all laid out here:

I find that term “democratic socialism” laughable. There is nothing “democratic” about a system that hands control of the means of economic production to the government. It is entirely undemocratic and unAmerican.

I see a lot of article explaining socialism, and its danger, but none (so far) on how to beat them.

Actually, having the Socialists take over the Democrat Party is a good thing (if they can), because Democrats only represent about 1/3 of the American populous....the rest being comprised of Republican and Independents. The real number needed is how many voting American citizens favor socialism.

There will be universal employment.
Residents will receive 4 slices of bread, 4 slices of bologna and 4 slices of cheese per day.
Water can be collected from rain or a river.
Housing will be allocated by the State.
Pit toilets will be provided by the State.
Residents will be allowed one shower per week.
Disruptions overburden the State and will not be tolerated.

That's what I concluded some years ago:

The only way to a socialist state is to impose it - because there are always far too many of us who enjoy freedom and liberty.

The only way to impose a socialist state is to adopt many fascist tactics. From Wikipedia on fascism:

...form of radical authoritarian ultranationalism,[1][2] characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and strong regimentation of society and of the economy...

Aside from the ultranationalism, does this sound like modern day "liberals" to anyone else? Their hero, bammy once quipped "I've got a pen and a phone" and they cheered. They thoroughly enjoyed their rise to power. Anyone think liberals don't shout-down, attack opposition in the courts, social media, and literally in the streets and restaurants? Bammy imposed extensive regulation on the economy. The whole bammy thing was hope and *change*.

They aren't hiding folks. Modern day leftists aka "liberals" are nothing of the sort. They are not about liberty and freedom - just the opposite. They are all about power and control. They are National Socialists all over again.

I don’t really care about democracy.
I don’t really care about the republic.
I don’t really care about most of the people there in.
What I care about is getting more, and I want it all blown apart if I can’t.

At it’s primal levels, socialism is about envy and schadenfreude. Compassion and empathy for others only extends to those who I identify as being like me, and even then it’s really just a tool for the cause

“Democratic Socialism Will Destroy America”

Another clueless writer who still doesn’t realize that DESTROYING AMERICA IS THE GOAL. Everything the left does is to destroy America so that they can build their Communist utopia.

Just call it what it is.

COMMUNISM.

Yeah, we're really going to become Norway - where everyone looks alike and thinks alike (except for pesky islamics) and carries the same values. And where the work ethic is strong throughout society with no one wishing to be on the Dole.

We'll be Venezuela within a year or so.

Perhaps the author is right.
Perhaps Democratic Socialism really WILL destroy America.

I have the sinking feeling that we are going to find out.

Fascism is always the end result. Socialism centralizes and concentrates political power that ultimately corrupts all who are permitted to wield it.

There is nothing “democratic” about socialism.

My definitions:

The only difference between Socialism and Democratic Socialism is that with Democratic Socialism the people get to vote for the rope that hangs them.
