When this leftist brand of "democracy" crashes and burns, the politicians et al, who enabled it, will be long gone and dust in the ground but the globalist citizens, formerly Americans, will suffer the consequences for generations
Leftist Democracy is Suffocating
By Dr. Ileana Johnson Paugh ——Bio and Archives--December 22, 2020
While attending school in the socialist republic paradise ruled by the Communist Party, the curriculum was determined by the communist educators and activists in good standing with the party. As students, if we tried to question the exact narrative printed in the books or repeated by teachers, we were usually told, "democracy has gone to your heads," how dare you question the wisdom of the party?
This was not unlike what is happening today in American colleges and universities where divergent opinions from the progressive philosophy are not allowed to exist. Yet the same academics shout from the rooftops that non-leftists are endangering "democracy" by their mere existence.
The word "democracy" means different things for different people, depending on their ideology. Merriam-Webster dictionary defines democracy as "government by the people, rule of the majority, a government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system or representation usually involving periodically held free elections."
Blaming capitalism for the ills created by the left is something that the brainwashed useful idiots protesting in the streets and on campuses will never understand
Would that be "free elections" like the most recent presidential election when a new president-elect emerged, frail, sickly, and unable to gather more than 30 people to his rallies, aided and abetted by fraudulent mail-in ballots, "computer glitches" which added hundreds of thousands of new votes to his count in the middle of the night, opposition ballots disposed of in dumpsters, and boxes of favorable ballots delivered in the middle of the night in unmarked vans?
As I clearly recall, we had "democracy" in name only in socialism, under the rule of the Communist Party, it was their way or the gulag.
Leftists invoke "democracy" every time they want to achieve their goals which are usually not good for the American people. The left are really adept at accusing the other side of what they are doing, hijacking the concept of "democracy" to suit their globalist, anti-American agenda.
Blaming capitalism for the ills created by the left is something that the brainwashed useful idiots protesting in the streets and on campuses will never understand because they have lost contact, or never had it in the first place, with reality and historical facts.
"Empowering workers" and "worker power" have been tried before in the twentieth century with disastrous results in countries like USSR, Poland, Bulgaria, Romania, China, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, North Korea, Cuba, and many others ruled by the Communist Party.
Labor activists with plenty of money to burn, money donated by billionaires, used political action, the lying media, protests, and riots, as a form of bargaining to replace the enormous collective bargaining power that unions used to have.
Social justice, racial justice, jobs with justice, fake systemic racism, fake white privilege have become the rallying cry and excuse to destroy capitalism
Social justice, racial justice, jobs with justice, fake systemic racism, fake white privilege have become the rallying cry and excuse to destroy capitalism and anyone who stands in their way of bringing back communism, more destructive than ever and on a global scale.
The left is "radically reimagining and redefining" the mission and goals of societies and families across the globe and nobody will stand in their way. Sarcastically stated, what can possibly be more "democratic" than that? Erase borders, education, faith, family, history, nationality, confiscate wealth and redistribute it from producers to welfare recipients, and you have the Democratic Socialism envisioned by American Democrats.
The Democratic Socialism the left is building and advocating in the twenty-first century will drive us exactly in the direction of an "increasingly unstable, undemocratic, unequal, and unsustainable world" they are so busy criticizing capitalism for.
And the future of American workers will be quite bleak as the left pretends to protect them with clever rhetoric, while importing more and more illegal workers into the U.S. and outsourcing more well-paid and skilled American jobs to foreign guest workers who work for a fraction of the pay.
Leftists take pride in making their followers believe that their brand of "democracy" pays workers living wages for doing precious little and gives them free everything that makes life enjoyable.

The leftist brand of "democracy" is suffocating our formerly free society
The "democracy" I experienced under socialism was quite oppressive and the Party paid their workers, the infamous proletariat, barely survivable wages, with no way to improve one’s station in life or their families’ financial future.
The Democratic Socialists of America, founded in 1982, had about eight thousand converts by 1989. Today claims are made that 57 percent of Democrats have a favorable view of socialism and 37 percent of Americans have a positive view of socialism. If you are to believe such Gallup polls, of the 252 million voting-age Americans, 93 million (17 and older) view socialism in a rose-colored glass light.
In a short period of time, the United States moved from America-loving to an America-hating field primed for socialism and global communism.
What enabled such a significant change? The main culprits seem to be the academic halls of powerful indoctrination, Hollywood, billionaire donations to political non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and the misinformation of the main stream media fed gradually over decades by Jimmy Carter’s Department of (mis)Education.
The leftist brand of "democracy" is suffocating our formerly free society, turning it into a third world cesspool which will be problematic to escape, given the technocratic control over all levels of government, a swampy multi-headed Hydra fed with our tax dollars and foreign interference in political and economic affairs.
When this leftist brand of "democracy" crashes and burns, the politicians et al, who enabled it, will be long gone and dust in the ground but the globalist citizens, formerly Americans, will suffer the consequences for generations.
