During a recent event for the Democratic Socialists of America, panelists argued in favor of performing abortions in churches and dismantling the family unit, among other completely insane things.
It’s very important to remember that these people are the ones driving the candidacy of Zohran Mamdani in the New York City mayoral race. If he were to win that election, these people would have his ear.
The fact that they are saying these things so openly indicates that their confidence is very high, although that confidence might be misplaced.
The Post Millennial reports:
The panel, titled “The Left and the Family: A Roundtable,” took place on July 4 and was part of the Socialism Conference in Chicago. The video was uploaded to YouTube on Friday, and DSA wrote in the caption that the nuclear family is “an inherently repressive, racist, and hetero-sexist institution that functionally reinforces and reproduces capitalism.”
Speakers included Emily Janakiram of New York City for Abortion Rights, University of Chicago sociologist Eman Abdelhadi, Katie Gibson of the University of Chicago, and BDS activist and Portland DSA member Olivia Katbi. Throughout the discussion, panelists linked capitalism and the nuclear family, calling both oppressive systems in need of transformation.
Katie Gibson claimed that children born into low-income families are “treated as if they have committed a crime,” and criticized the legal authority of parents, saying, “If you are born into a home headed by a Christian fundamentalist tyrant, for instance, you have the rights that that Christian fundamentalist tyrant gives you.” She also drew a comparison to President Donald Trump as a tyrant for children under state care.

If New York City elects Zohran Mamdani, they will also be electing these people. It would be a disaster for the city and the country.
