Who is Zohran Mamdani

A communist by any other name is still...a freaking communist

"The idea that the term “democratic socialism” is anything but a genteel rebranding of communism is a lie that must be exposed immediately.

For years, Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have been permitted to hide their communist beliefs under the less-threatening "democratic socialist" label, but now that Zohran Mamdani is bringing that fraudulent title the NYC mayor's race while pushing policies straight out of the communist playbook, it's time to stop using politically correct terms.

Mamdani is a straight-up Kremlin Communist. His stated goals of allowing the state to control the means of production and forced redistribution of wealth are ideas that Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels explicitly championed in The Communist Manifesto, where they declared socialism as a stepping stone to communism’s abolition of private property.

The “democratic” label is a marketing trick, dressing up authoritarian ideology in a voter-friendly costume without altering its goal: centralized power and economic chokepoints.

History reminds us that socialism and communism have slaughtered over 100 million people in the past century--94 million under communist regimes alone--from Lenin’s Red Terror to Mao’s 45 million deaths in the Great Leap Forward.

Should New Yorkers vote to bring the most disastrous ideology and economic system ever created, into our largest city and into the nation, it would unleash a global catastrophe, destabilizing markets and empowering tyrants worldwide."
