A great American city is on the precipice of being run by a communist who has publicly embraced a terroristic ideology,” Representative Andy Ogles from the Republican party said
What do you mean “now?” Americans have had this habit of calling anyone whose politics they disapprove of a “communist” or “socialist” for a very long time.
You misspelled rugged individualist, billionaire and centimillionaire overlords that they think they can become with the right luck. Even though that luck was mostly being born into wealth.
Both in Fascism and Socialism/Communism the State owns the companies, or at least controls them.
Meanwhile in Neoliberalism the companies (well, Money in general) sits above the State, which is how it differs from Fascism: in both systems common people are at the bottom of the pile and whilst in Fascism a few people control the State which sits above Money, in Neoliberalism a few people control most of the Money which sits above the State (which is supposedly controlled by The People through elections, but since it’s subsidiary to Money that means that what The People control via the vote is only that which Money doesn’t care about)
In Democracy people are supposed to be at the top of the pile, controlling the State through their vote, with the State in turn being above the rest, including Money.
They know that nobody with a red hat as EVER read or listened to an actual thing Mamdani has ever said. They could say he flew one of the planes on 9/11 and most of the base would believe it.
Boomers grew up on anti-communist propaganda. But unlike other people, they didn’t use critical thinking and introspection. Therefore, because they still refuse to learn and grow, it’s still the scariest thing they can imagine…
What the fuck are these cretins on?
Is anyone left from Hitler a “communist” now?

The best part is they can’t even define communism or socialism.
Of course they can. Both words mean “anything my corporate masters disagree with”.

Meanwhile, Trump is over here practicing literal state socialism. The government now owns 10% of Intel.

Literally and without exaggeration, yes, that’s what they truly believe.
I feel like this is unfair, because you are leaving out a pretty important part of the issue.
These people also think Hitler was a moderate.
They know that nobody with a red hat as EVER read or listened to an actual thing Mamdani has ever said. They could say he flew one of the planes on 9/11 and most of the base would believe it.
He DID!? I knew it! Wait until I tell my Facebook groups!
Since he was 9 at the time, he had to use a booster seat. Make sure to include that detail.
A booster seat that ejected him at the last second. Brilliant!
Yes. Unironically that is exactly what they believe
