I don't think that's the aim of the Democratic Party but I do think it's a long-term objective of members of the party like AOChe. Given the opportunity do I think she would want me to be "reeducated"? Yes, I do.

Yes, our constitution has been changed and there is a process to do it. If the pseudo-progressives want to change the Constitution they should follow the process. Instead, they bitch and moan about it and want to subvert it, not legally change it.

You don't see the hypocrisy of demonizing Trump as a Fascist/Hitler while excusing or worse venerating Mao and Stalin? The Hammer & Sickle should be considered a symbol of hate just as much as the swastika.
These types of Leftist generally fall into two camps. They believe that "real Communism" has never been tried. OR that Communism was actually successful, but those meddling Capitalists with their free market and liberty screwed everything up.
Maybe we should give it a try, considering the economic schooling the Chinese are giving us... :coffee:
