Where's the war these days? Right here - in the Dimocrat party...

 
The Dimocrat Party is experiencing a major internal conflict as a surge of progressive and democratic socialist candidates challenge and defeat establishment-backed, centrist incumbents in primary elections. This ideological civil war centers on the party's core identity, economic strategy, and electability in swing districts.
 Leftist candidates are running against mainstream and moderate Democrats, arguing that the party leadership is out of touch and overly reliant on incremental change or corporate funding. It'ds becoming a battle between Capitalism and. Socialism. Centrist Democrats have pushed back publicly against the leftward shift, issuing pledges and statements affirming their support for a pro-union, capitalist framework rather than democratic socialism.
And now they're in what can only be called an "Electability" debate. Moderates warn that hyper-progressive or leftist platforms on issues like criminal justice, foreign policy, and immigration hurt the party's broader brand in competitive suburban and swing areas. Left-wing victors counter that aggressive economic populism is essential to energize the working-class base.
 

In the end, let's all hope they pull themselves apart, breaking up in to smaller, splinter groups that can't win on the national level - where it all matters most. Juss' sayin'...

As a counter argument, that makes sense...

According to the Washington Post, democratic socialists aim to eventually replace private corporate ownership of the economy with public or worker control. 
 
Though they often back similar short-term goals like universal healthcare, their long-term economic visions and views on capitalism differ fundamentally. Sounds like communism to me...

This is one helluva deal.

According to the New York Slimes, the embattled establishment of the Democratic Party searched furiously for a political reset after Dr. Abdul El-Sayed’s progressive victory in Michigan handed the party’s long-dominant moderate wing its most painful defeat of the year.
Some strategists urgently pressed to adopt a sharper edge to tap into the fury among Democratic voters that was felling its centrist candidates. Others wanted to attack democratic socialism, undercutting a budding movement now set to have far more than a toehold in the next Congress. Yet another young democratic socialist ousted an incumbent congressman in Detroit on Tuesday. “We are preparing for the next war that is coming,” said Jonathan Cowan, the president of Third Way, a leading centrist Democratic group, revealing to The New York Times a new $15 million effort between now and 2028 to discredit democratic socialism.
El-Sayed’s win was not the blowout that some pre-election polls had predicted. But his narrow nomination in one of the country’s signature swing states still represented a critical moment for the party’s middle, which had previously sought to cast the far left’s successes as contained within the country’s most urban and liberal corridors.

Here's a bunch of people pretty much stuck on a side road, just off the NY Thruway on their way to Woodstock back in '69. Think about this - the average age of anyone who went to Woodstock was only 20 or so years old at the time. That means that those concert-goers are now in their mid- to late-70's like me. I know perspective's a bitch and all, but that reality hits me kinda hard. Juss' sayin'...

Imagine the mindset of the person who created this graphic. Lumping Trump in 
with Hitler and Mussolini. That is the extent that TDS will take someone. Someone 
so devoid of any historical perspective, just filled with hate that clouds their minds. 
Kinda sad...
