DSA targets NYC public school kids in radical takeover
NY Post ^ | 07/26/2026 | David Spector

The Democratic Socialists of America are plotting a radical takeover of NYC public schools, with comrades admitting they want to mold a new generation of baby Bolsheviks, The Post has learned.

Maureen Fadem — yet another nutty professor working for a CUNY school — called for kids to be educated in a “democratic socialist frame” and to be taught the Godfathers of Communism Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, despite their writing inspiring some of the most murderous dictators in history, from Stalin to Mao.

“We need to overhaul the curriculum in a class consciousness frame. . . . The curriculum as a whole needs to be relooked at, revisioned and reframed,” the CUNY Kingsborough Community College professor said.

In addition to students being schooled in “class consciousness” — the radical Marxist idea that business owners are at war with their workers and all private property should be revoked — Fadem also said that teachers must be educated in “race consciousness.”

“We need to be teaching teachers about institutional racism in the training of pedagogy,” she said.

The socialist is among a rogues’ gallery of controversial CUNY professors — some with criminal charges — employed by the taxpayer-funded university system. Fadem has argued for slavery reparations and says school curricula has been shaped by a conservative perspective.

“The curriculum was built not under a democratic socialist frame, it was built under a neoliberal and conservative frame,” she said.

The meeting, titled “Planning for Socialist School Governance,” was led by NYC DSA Labor Working Group co-chair Nina Bruckenthal, a math teacher at NEST+m, a public science-oriented K-12 school on the Lower East Side, and Amanda Vender, an ESL teacher at the International High School of Sciences in Elmhurst, Queens.

That’s already happening in the schools. It started when God was kicked out, all the way up through DEI. Now the America haters want to kick it up to the next level. The mask is off.

If this keeps up there will be escalating violence. They have declared war upon us from within our own nation.

Just wait until their DEI results in a requirement for prayer in public schools - Islamic prayer. It's already happened on a small scale, but it will ramp up to the point at which the 'call to prayer' will be played over the school intercom system.

In communist China every classroom was given a picture of Mao to hang on the wall. A young girl asked the teacher if the room went on fire who would you save the picture of Mao or the children. He said the children of course. She struck him in the face. The other children then got up and began hitting the teacher until they had beaten him to death. She was celebrated as a hero of the revolution and got to meet Mao. True story. And I think we are getting closer to that with the DSA every day.

Democrats flooded the country with those who want to take everything they can get, without earning. They did it for the power and votes, without regard for the countries future.

“If this keeps up there will be escalating violence. They have declared war upon us from within our own nation.”

I seriously doubt that there will be violent resistance. Sure, there will be lots of online posts, whining and crying. The public, especially in blue states, has been dumbed down beyond belief. Add to that the distractions, (it takes time to make all those online posts, then keep refreshing to see replies), and you have an open path for the commies.

This should serve to further drive NYC residents out, or into home schooling or private schools. Although electing Mad-mani in the first place shows the collective stupidity of the city’s population.

When they get enough power they will make home schooling and private schools illegal.

At this stage, it would only take a few.

Hey New Yorkers ... now do you understand that elections have consequences?

As if the present brainwashing is not enough, the unabashed commies want Karl Marx and Engels in there too.

“Moral decay first hampers and then strangles honest government, regular commerce, and even the ability to take genuine pleasure in the goods of this world. Compulsion is applied from above as self-discipline relaxes below, and the last liberties expire under the weight of a unitary state.... Since religion has lost its empire over the souls of men, the most prominent boundary that divided good from evil is overthrown; kings and nations are guided by chance and none can say where are the natural limits of despotism and the bound of license.”

Russell Kirk

Any growing interest in soccer can only be a sign of the nation’s moral decay.

This is why the “they voted for it let them have it” argument is flawed. Mamdani will stuff every city position with his islamocommies and they will never be removed. They will have all the time and money to spread their filthy dogma to the kids, colleges, media, and infest more and more government positions. Look at the insanity just a couple college have brought about from the 60s. Columbia and Berkeley have destroyed American culture in a few decades. Has a single step been stopped through “the long march” through the institutions?
