The Shadow of Socialism
American Thinker ^ | 4 Dec, 2024 | Ronald Beaty

Posted on 12/04/2024 4:02:06 AM PST by MtnClimber

The DSA's presence in American politics is a stark reminder of the vigilance necessary to protect our republic.

In the heart of American politics, an insidious ideology masquerades under the guise of progressivism, threatening the very foundations upon which our nation was built. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), with its burgeoning membership and increasing influence within the Democrat Party, is not just a political movement; it is a calculated assault on the American Dream, capitalism, and individual liberty.

From a conservative perspective, the DSA represents more than a mere divergence from traditional American values; it is ideological terrorism that seeks to dismantle the economic and social structures that have made the United States a beacon of freedom and prosperity.

The DSA's core philosophy revolves around the notion that capitalism is inherently flawed, requiring replacement by a socialist state where the means of production are controlled by the government. This is not just a policy disagreement; it is an assault on the economic freedom that has enabled America to excel. The DSA's push for policies like "Medicare for All" and a Green New Deal are cloaked in altruism but serve to centralize power, stifling innovation and personal initiative.

Imagine an economy where government dictates resource allocation, where the entrepreneurial spirit is suffocated by the weight of state mandates. The DSA would transform the economic landscape from one of opportunity into one of bureaucratic stagnation, where the only growth is in government and not in individual or collective wealth.

According to a report by the Heritage Foundation, the DSA's policy proposals would lead to a significant increase in government spending and taxation, resulting in a substantial decrease in economic freedom.

The DSA's foreign policy positions, particularly concerning Israel and globalism, reveal a troubling disdain for American sovereignty.

All of the Rats are in the DSA, just some are just brazen enough to call themselves Communists openly. But the DSA has had a website forever and many, many Rats are on in it and a website. Proudly decorated with a huge red rose, etc.

The fact that many House Rats are reelected multiple times to Congress in spite of their DSA status and thus openly avowed treasonous beliefs is a testament to the stupidity and laziness of the spoiled Rat American voter.

I refer to the communists, leftists, left-wing-nuts, progressives, and socialists, as the nationalizing socialist party.

If we’re going to do something about Socialist/Communist take over we’d had better hurry, as we speak the Chicoms already have two Police Stations in the US one in New York and LA, and 10 Confucius Institutes in the US. They will beat us from within, just like Nikita Khrushchev said they would do.

It’s not a shadow.

It’s a jackboot on the throat of the American body politic.

An ever growing number I’d guess. Probably ever more of the migrants are signing up and more and more of US youth are attracted to it.

In fact........sad to know, but it’s probably the future of the US. They’ll come back with a true vengeance when Trump is done.
