“But if the new Care Bear Communists manage to stay around long enough, they will take over the leadership positions.”
The interesting thing about the Communists, like Bernie, is, the longer they are “in the system” the more they perpetuate, “the system.” Bernie has three luxury houses. How’s that for a Communist? By the time the new firebrands get their seniority, they will hardly be recognizable to their constituents. True, they will still spout the ideology, but they will do so from the top of a pile of money and privilege. Oh, the irony...it BURNS!
Of course, the Politburo members lead the lives of Western millionaires. Go figure... Gosh, the unwashed masses who vote for them are idiots.
That is why they are called useful idiots.
