Members of the Democratic Socialists of America have apparently pledged to ‘support and defend’ the People’s Republic of China. It’s no surprise that they admire a communist country but taking a pledge like this is more than a little suspect.
While America tries to maintain friendly ties with China, it’s no secret that they are one of our main geopolitical foes, if not the ultimate one.
At what point have these folks crossed a line into treason?
The New York Post reports:
About a dozen Democratic Socialists of America activists have publicly pledged to “support” and “defend” China amid an apparent push by the communist nation to court members of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s party.
Friends of Socialist China, a London-based group, touts 952 signatories on its pledge to “support the People’s Republic of China and to promote understanding of Chinese socialism.”
Eleven self-described DSA or DSA International Committee members are among those that “resolve to support, defend and build understanding of Chinese socialism,” The Post found.
The Times of London first reported on the DSA signatories.
The pledge argues that “the global advance to socialism is indispensable if humanity is to survive and to flourish,” while decrying capitalism as “totally incapable of solving the problems of poverty and inequality” and being “ inextricably linked with war, empire, racism, misogyny, alienation, and environmental destruction.”
“Why China?” the pledge continues. “We support all states building or aspiring to socialism, and we favour the highest level of unity and friendship between them. We foreground China in particular because its size and level of development give it an objectively critical role in the global transition to socialism.”
Is the State Department going to look into this?
I’m really beginning to think the DSA might be a problem. Just a little… https://t.co/dYW8A2qX1K

It really does look like these people are enemies of America. Why aren’t they treated that way?
And when does the media finally step up and do their job by reporting on this?
