Title: Mamdani Defines Communism
Post by: Coach is Back! on October 02, 2026, 05:13:13 PM
THEO VON: “Will you define socialism for us?”

MAMDANI: “Socialism, to me, means that you will have WHATEVER YOU NEED to live a dignified life, and that it is the GOVERNMENT’S JOB to deliver on that.”

I’ve heard a line like that before. It came from a famous book, and it was describing the highest stage of communism.

On a personal note...Communism and communists should be purged

It is crazy they are electing people like this in the US.

Believing that every citizen should have a job that affords them the necessities for a quality life and dignity is hardly extreme and most certainly isn't communism.  I know you are never going to unlearn the patently wrong things you believe in but I'm not gonna give up on you even as you openly root for bad things to happen to me.

Of course it is. That's just a silly statement based in some utopia that doesn't exist.

Why such a defeatist attitude?  We are the USA.  Don't you believe we are exceptional?  So yes, that utopia doesn't exist but why not work towards it?

Yes, we’re the USA. Not Cuba or Venezuela
