The fact that people who live in the United States of America, the most free country to ever exist on the planet, are embracing the concepts of socialism and communism is an indictment of our entire education system.
Independent journalist Katlin Bennett recently spoke to a man who grew up behind the Iron Curtain in the Soviet Union and he is absolutely stunned that this is happening.
This clip is apparently from just before the New York City mayoral election.
Partial transcript via the Donald Trump for President Facebook page:
“I lived behind the Iron Curtain. To want socialism or communism is one of the dumbest things anybody can say in this country.”
“I would literally make it a college requirement to volunteer for three months in a third-world country — that’s the only way they’d realize how good they have it.”
“We made this happen. We wanted better for our kids, so we let them do whatever they want — and we didn’t educate them.”
“I have a friend who has no idea what Auschwitz is. Forty-two years old. How is that even possible?”
Here’s the video:

On a related note, a young woman who came to America from Russia recently posted a very educational video on Twitter/X, where she warns Americans about what they are headed for if they stay on this course.

The problem is that Zohran Mamdani and his supporters think they are smarter than others who came before them, tried socialism, and failed.
They believe they will be the first people to succeed by doing it the right way.
