The millionaire parents of a whiny top DSA leader have set up their socialist son in a $1.5 million Brooklyn home — where he lives while railing against the rich and property ownership, The Post has learned.

Gustavo Gordillo, the 38-year-old co-chair of the New York City chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America, is peddling his anti-capitalist lefty agenda while enjoying the life in the two-story, nearly 2,000-square-foot row home on a gentrifying tree-lined block in Bed-Stuy.

“I wish my family could afford to buy me a million-dollar home,” said local renter Faith Smith, 36 — who called the socialist Yale University grad a hypocrite.

“It’s a rich kid,’’ she said of the Yalie. “That’s basically people who don’t have to deal with the struggles we have to deal with.”

The Ivy League radical’s converted single-family home was bought in 2019 by his mommy and daddy through a dummy corporation, Chucuito LLC, for just under $1 million, property records show.

Since then, it has undergone a major facelift, with renovations done to its entire front facade, the planting of lush landscaping, the revamping of the interior and the addition a pair of decks on the roof as well as near the front door, according to plans filed with the borough in 2023.

Updates to the property continued Tuesday at least on its second floor, The Post observed.

“My son and my other son both live there,” Gordillo’s father said when reached by phone. “The LLC purchased the home, and then we did the renovations.”

Gordillo and his DSA comrades have meanwhile railed against property ownership, calling for a redistribution of land “from landowners to the landless.”

Gordillo also recently attacked landlords in a vitriolic interview on Fox News last month, when he offered up little sympathy for property...

For some reasons, many (most) of communist leaders have been rich.
From Engels (factory owner) to Lenin (son of rich school inspector), to Castro (rich lawyer), and many, many more.
You know, proletariat needs leaders and since they cannot help themselves, the enlightened rich have to step in!

The whole movement is build on jealousy to the rich and condescension to the poor.

Spoon fed clowns like this (enamored of participation trophies) know on first contact with real people that they are losers. So, they opt for some system that lets them bully others and create slaves.
This is the source of all collectivist polities — spoiled brats.
