The Jacobins of the French Revolution were elites too. Just because the Nepo-Babies of the Left are play-acting in many ways, does not make them any less dangerous than real Lenninists. In fact they may be more dangerous, since billionaires know how to make things happen and have the means to do stuff.
Since you mentioned Israel, this post will undoubtedly draw attention from Karl. He has TDS which is obnoxious but he also regularly spews antisemitism which is beyond the pale. As a big FY to him, I will become a paid subscriber as soon as I post this.
An insightful post, Batya! The Democratic Socialists of America endorsing a billionaire like Tom Steyer is the irony to end all ironies! The net zero, abolish prisons people are endorsing someone who invests in private prisons and coal mining. They chose him over a single mom of three Katie Porter and a Hispanic former HHS Secretary Xavier Becarra. First off, Tom Steyer would be a disaster as Governor of California. He believes in pie in the sky ridiculous policies like the Billionaire Tax and Medicare for All. He has called ICE a “violent extremist group” and promised to prosecute ICE agents just for doing their jobs. He is also an antisemite who hates Israel and repeated the blood libel that the Jewish state committed genocide in Gaza. This is the Democratic Party of 2026 folks! The party of the upper class, the Washington establishment and trust fund baby socialists who cosplay as revolutionaries while living off their parents money.
Folks like Tom Steyer, Bernie Sanders, AOC, Zahran Mamdani, and Hasan Piker walk around advocating for the destruction of capitalism while living lavish lifestyles in big houses. They support policies of redistribution but not to help the poor, but to use the money of the American taxpayer for their own purposes and agenda. This is what the Democratic Party is all about now. They’ve abandoned workers and unions. They are no longer a people’s party as they were in the 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and 2000s. All that’s gone now, the only one looking out for workers and unions is Donald Trump at this point. The DSA attacks him for being a billionaire endorsed by billionaires. But yet, more billionaires supported Kamala Harris than the President.
The DSA is a total joke and has proved here that it’s not poor or working class people they care about, it’s their ideological agenda their most concerned with. Tom Steyer wouldn’t improve the lives of the poor and workers, he would simply increase the power of the state, which is the real goal here. Oh how Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson would roll over in their graves if they saw this. The best thing we can hope for California, is that Sheriff Chad Bianco is elected Governor! He’s the only viable candidate I see as he’s the only one who really stands for positive reform in the Golden State. Steyer or any of his fellow Democratic candidates would be a disaster. California must elect Sheriff Bianco if it wants to see real change. Folks in Los Angeles must also elect Spencer Pratt as Mayor over corrupt and elitist Karen Bass.
What is driving all this Leftism in the US? The underlying cause is inequality. While the US Gini coefficient (0.42) is not at French Revolution levels (0.59), the Gini in many Democrat cities and states does approach those levels. According to Google:
Top U.S. Cities with Highest Income Inequality (Gini Index)
Atlanta, GA: 0.5677
Boulder, CO: 0.5607
New Orleans, LA: 0.5601
Columbia, SC: 0.5572
Miami, FL: 0.5546
New York, NY: 0.5488
Tampa, FL: 0.5433
City vs. State: While cities like Atlanta have high inequality, states with the highest overall Gini coefficients (around 0.48–0.52) include New York, California, Connecticut, and Massachusetts.
It really is delicious!!
Great post. 👏
Classic Democrat move !!
Astonishingly naive for DSA to hope Tom Steyer will be a class traitor.
Has he donated his billions and reduced himself to a mere centi-millionaire? No? Then he won’t become a class traitor.

Call it elite, caste, et al. They think that they are superior people.
Congratulations, DSA. No one can parody you any better than yourselves.
From the party who skips the nomination part of "democratic elections" and installs Harris.

I'm not much on conspiracy theories but clearly the far left is trying to bankrupt fake news/satire sites like Babylon Bee.
Sean should tip his cap to these cretins.
Raging hypocrisy, but since they are all sheeple, they will believe whatever they are told. Gleeful Useful Brainless Idiots
