Are the Democrats a Communist Party?
First: what is communism?

I am—to be clear—no particular fan of Republican rhetoric and propaganda, nor am I attracted to party line politics of any sort, but this convention seemed on the edge of an out-of-body “mass formation psychosis” experience à la Mattias Desmet, from both audience and speakers, that eerily approached the atmosphere of Leni Riefenstahl ’s documentary of the 1934 Nuremberg Rally (not exactly communist but close enough in its celebration of group think).
The times, they are indeed a’changin’ at an almost unfathomable clip—but am I exaggerating?
Maybe. But even the scheduling of speakers at the DNC is beginning to resemble the shuffling of faces on a politburo rostrum with Presidents Biden and Obama being rendered nonpersons by not speaking until nearly 11:00 PM. Biden is almost literally their Brezhnev, to be propped up and then escorted from the scene..
But if we are to ask whether today’s Democrats are a communist party we must first define the term communist that has become rather different in our era, though no less ominous and, in my view, potentially more successful globally.

Times have changed but the similarities are there.
