Alexandria Ocasio Cortez was a major step forward in the political lurch towards leftist totalitarianism, proposing at every turn “democratic socialism.” But she is not an end, simply another brick in the wall. Gentlemen, behold:

Denver council member wins with promise to impose communism ‘by any means necessary’

Newly minted and curiously spelled Denver council president Candi CdeBaca wants straight-up communism.

“I don’t believe our current economic system actually works. Um, capitalism by design is extractive and in order to generate profit in a capitalist system, something has to be exploited, that’s land, labor or resources. And I think that we’re in late phase capitalism and we know it doesn’t work and we have to move into something new, and I believe in community ownership of land, labor, resources and distribution of those resources. And whatever that morphs into is I think what will serve community the best and I’m excited to usher it in by any means necessary.”

She wants to skip over the Venezuelan economic collapse and go straight to the Kampuchean killing fields.
