I'm not a pie-in-the-sky optimist, but I believe that is an accurate statement. The Democrat Party has been almost completely co-opted by Marxists. It is nearly complete.
You watch. The very next generation of Democrats will be full throated Marxists. Once Biden dies off along with Pelosi, Feinstein, and the other very senior Party apparatchiks, Democrats will accept nothing short of fascism/Marxism.
Case and point:
Conor Lamb. Their Great White Hope here in Western PA.
A moderate-sounding guy who claims he’s “a new kind of Dem who will never vote in lockstep with Nancy Pelosi”.
He will soon be facing a vote on Trump’s impeachment. It will end his career, one way or another. Either he’ll vote yea and his district will turn on him, or vote no and suffer the wrath of the moonbats.

I agree. Organizations and movements almost never turn away from extremism once they go down that path. Unless, of course, there is an outside force that turns them away, like Eisenhower and SHAEF.
The only peaceful example I know of is when William F. Buckley kicked the Birchers out of the Conservative Movement. By doing so, he began the process of rebuilding Conservatism.
