We're seeing it and we are hearing it as it being promoted by the Democrats again. I doubt Kamala lives like a socialist but she seems to understand the value of it to those she needs to have the support of in order to remain in office and advance her political career/ambitions.
Is Kamala promoting the concept of class struggle? If not, she's not a Marxist - full stop.
Good point, but not one that will be heard. C-Xer has a Fox Network view of Communism -- one that seems to ignore Vladimir Putin while encapsulating Democrats to the right of his mythical centerline. I try to argue specifics with him for that reason. Is it OK for poor people to starve rather than tax the rich, for instance. That isn't truly successful either, but he rarely fully embraces cruelty as a preferred option.
