Bill Maher’s audience audibly gasps when he reads what the Democratic Socialists of America are actually saying out loud:

MAHER: “Trump has told 1 trillion lies, but when he says the DSA are actually COMMUNISTS, that’s not one of them.”

“And it’s not hard to prove it just by quoting the DSA and their candidates.”

“J.D. Vance was on the show, and I told him that if the Democratic Party keeps going in the direction of the DSA, my vote was in play. And all I heard all vacation was, ‘Oh, my God, you’re a Republican now.’ No, that's not what I said. I said in play, and here’s why.”

“Because not a week goes by where I don’t read about some newly chosen, exciting new face in the Democratic Party. And then when that face opens its mouth, the Communist Manifesto or some other crazy shit comes out! Again.”

“Let’s just read the quotes. The DSA platform says: ‘You work as much as you are able and no more than needed.’ If that was any closer to Karl Marx’s dictum, from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs, they’d be sued for plagiarism.”

“New York Mayor Mamdani once tweeted, Karl Marx’s words exactly. They’re not trying to hide it. Their most popular influencer, Hasan Piker, thinks communism is so groovy, he laments the fall of two of the most murderous regimes in history, the Soviet Union and Chairman Mao's China.”

“Mamdani's aide, his top aide, Cea Weaver, said, ‘If you don't believe in the government's sacred right to seize property, it's over.’ And ‘impoverish the white middle class.’ What? That's a goal? You know you're supposed to scare people into voting for you, right?”

“One of the new, soon-to-be Democratic congresspeople, Darlesia Chavalier, supports seizing all properties from landlords and said, ‘Seize the means of production.’ Mamdani has said ‘The end goal is seizing the means of production.’ I think they want to seize the means of production.”

“Now, maybe you missed that in school or missed school altogether, but THAT'S COMMUNISM.”

“Now the coalition within the DSA called the Marxist Unity Group is in ascendance. And I must take them at their word. When their words include, ‘Our commitment is to the long-term struggle for a fully liberated classless society. In a word, communism.’”

“What do they have to do, tweet out ‘Elect more communists’? Oh, yeah, Cea Weaver did that.”

[Shows tweet, audience audibly gasps]

“Yes, [she really did that]! ... People gotta realize this is going on.”

And yet, some rank-and-file Democrats I know — retired, white suburban housewives — put on social media that socialism is stuff such as public schools and libraries, publicly-funded highways, social security, etc. By their reckoning, we already have socialism and DSA will just give us more cool and useful stuff like that. Idiots.

Free Republic version of a bleep out on a TV show. You end up wondering what was removed, sort of like wondering what Tyrus or Kat were trying to say. Almost gets to the point where you stop watching.

The NEA failed America and the media are criminals

The NEA was set up by the Rockefellers, who controlled the General Education Board.

This has always been about concentrating power in the hands of those who control the government with debt.

Now they are calling themselves DSA. Just another step toward fully adopting the CPUSA’s beliefs.

Not quite. The DSA has been with us for a long time and its goals were the same when it was founded as they are today.

From Brave AI:

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) was first organized on March 20, 1982, through the merger of two predecessor groups: the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee (DSOC), founded in 1973 by Michael Harrington, and the New American Movement (NAM), established in 1971. The founding convention took place in Detroit, uniting approximately 6,000 members from both organizations to bridge the divide between the Old Left and New Left.

Founding Date: March 20–21, 1982

Key Founder: Michael Harrington served as the organization's first chairman.

Original Strategy: The group initially pursued a strategy of "realignment," aiming to push the Democratic Party to the left rather than running independent candidates.

I just get the feeling that with the DSA, we’ll get less stuff, not more. They’ll be worse than the soviets. They’ll rob every “lock box” to enrich themselves. We’ll be left to starve. They hate Americans. They think we’re too fat, dumb and happy and our inheritance should be given away to foreigners and to themselves.

And they do this because they never suffer any consequences for their actions. The state employee in Minnesota who keyed the Tesla did not only not pay a price for his actions he was given a promotion and raise.

maybe you missed that in school

That's a major problem, viz. public education is woke and they deliberately misrepresent truth. Now, all these stupid kids know is that socialism will give them free stuff.

They don't know the inevitable down side because their history teachers are all DEI and spend all their time talking about how fags have struggled against oppression.

In a sense it doesn’t really practice Maoism (Mao’s version) of communism) any more. Its more a Han Race Superiority Fascism. Facism in the sense it allows private property and outside investment. Government controlled private property and investment where Mao didn’t.

Camp of the Saints is an amazing book. It read like science-fiction when it was published. Now it reads like today’s news.

Just illustrates what we already knew, Bill Maher’s audience is stupid.
