It is not a small minority. They are increasing their ranks using our education system. Biden beat Trump in 2020 65-31 among voters 18-24. In 2022 Democrats outvoted Reps 63-35 among voters 18-29.
Adults under the age of 30 are about as likely to only have a positive view of socialism (28%) as they are to have a positive view of only capitalism (24%).


The Radical Left that has taken over the Democrat Party does not constitute a majority or even 48% of the country. The Radical Left is a minority but they have taken control of the reins of power.
The Democrats are the Radical Left. They march in lockstep to achieve their agenda.
Around a third of registered voters in the U.S. (34%) identify as independents, while 33% identify as Democrats and 29% identify as Republicans, according to a Center analysis of Americans’ partisan identification based on surveys of more than 12,000 registered voters in 2018 and 2019.
Though many Democrats are probably becoming radical Left, not all are.
The percentage of Radical Left we call Woke is probably around 25+.
Most Democrats think of and define capitalism as Wall St and greed.
Bottom line: When people say they favor socialism, they are NOT saying Marxism (at least not yet). And when they say "capitalism"...they are not thinking of what it really is, and that is, "free markets."
All that said, people, particularly young people, are too effing stupid to know what they are saying or agreeing with.
I am not disagreeing that more than a small minority favor socialism (though they cannot define it).
The small minority I am talking about consists of the freaks who believe it is okay to perform gender reassignment surgery on extremely young children and to hold drag shows in libraries and teach "white supremacy" to high school kids while preaching that math and science are racist. That is the minority! And it is that minority that is in control of the government, our schools, and the media.
