As Hanson sees it, Marxist policies have become ingrained in the Democrat Party’s platforms. Oddly, Newsom himself, a multimillionaire and a beneficiary of arch-capitalist Gordon Getty’s largesse, seems to have done quite well under capitalism,” Hanson wrote. Hanson concluded:“So far, the model holds true: Socialist candidates (as opposed to registered socialist activists) hide their communist-adjacent agendas during elections. Since the DSA operates with an open-faction system, Marxist members do not run as isolated individuals. Key Marxist factions within the DSA include the Marxist Unity Group (MUG), Red Star (RS), Bread & Roses (B&R), and Reform & Revolution (R&R).
