To gain leverage within the Democratic Party, the DSA is employing a tactic that Trotsky dubbed “entryism”—the willful effort by a small, disciplined cadre of radicals to infiltrate a more moderate organization and subvert it from within. It’s the same tactic that, throughout history, far-left organizations such as the Militant Tendency have routinely used to amass power. Unless the Democrats respond forcefully to the DSA’s entryism, they risk being overrun by extremists who will poison the party’s national brand and sap its capacity to compete with an already radicalized GOP.

"Will poison..."?! That boat has done sailed, NYT.
Libtards are too stupid to understand what is happening to their party, plus the indoctrination of school aged kids is paramount to the deep states takeover of the corrupt Democratic party. They will never believe that their "wonderful " party houses antiAmerican actors who want to do irreparable harm to this country. They still believe "Hope and Change" means a little tweaking of the American political system, not a full scale assault on their liberties. Once again, you just cannot argue with idiots.
Without the lying media the Democrat Party would already be 6 feet under.

That's a great picture; one of my faves.
Democrat's largest donors will continue to pull them even further left IMO. I hope this divides and splits them up for good.
The democrats party of JFK is no more. The communists are working on infiltrating the Republican Party or pay them off. Although I totally laughed in agreement with CNN’s Van Jones when he told the far left to “Stop pooping in the punch bowl—and telling us the turds are ice cubes!”
This is the epitome of communism! The political theory is shit, Communists don’t play well with others and they spread disinformation!
I'm going to skip to the end-the party will love it all until they have their backs quite literally against that wall.
It always ends with cigs and blindfolds
That ship has sailed. The dems were also full of commies in the 30s, see labor unions, see commies in FDR administration.
anything to protect the political class
the walls are collapsing on both sides

Even after a string of recent victories in congressional primaries by members of the Democratic Socialists of America, national Democrats appear slow to recognize that ideologues on the left are attempting a hostile takeover of the party. The DSA’s ascent comes on the heels of a yearslong effort by socialists and progressive activists to steer one of America’s two major political parties toward identity politics, isolationism, and hostility to capitalism.
Democrats looking for a way to reclaim their party can find inspiration in the career of Neil Kinnock, who in the mid-1980s rescued the British Labour Party from a determined band of sectarian zealots.
After Margaret Thatcher’s Conservatives surged into power in 1979, Labour responded by moving left. Its 1983 election platform—promising centralized economic planning, unilateral nuclear disarmament, and the introduction of a price-control commission—was so extreme that critics dubbed it “the longest suicide note in history.” After the party lost in a historic landslide to the Conservatives, major factions within Labour still insisted that the party wasn’t left-wing enough. The Labour politician Edward “Red Ted” Knight famously declared that “there can be no compromise with the electorate.”
