If American public schools (outside of Florida, that is) still taught accurate history, most young people would know one of the worst, dirty little truths about Communists and Communist movements:
They NEVER arise out of the working class.
From the days of Karl Marx, a shiftless layabout who lived off of his parents and Frederich Engels' wealth, to the Communists in America today, like silver-spooned Zohran Mamdani, the people who tell the workers to 'rise up against the bourgeoisie' are simply children of affluence and parasites who can't — or don't want to — work an honest living themselves.
Understanding that fact is the key to seeing through most Communists. Unfortunately, too many young people still fall for it.
But maybe when they see how New York DSA chair Gustavo Gordillo lives — and who pays for his lifestyle — some of them might start to wake up.
Brace yourselves for this shocking news …

You don't say! We couldn't be more shocked if we saw the sun set in the West this evening.
So his parents own it through an LLC that they are the majority owners of. They clearly live in Florida full time to avoid NY taxes, meaning that this is a second home over $1,000,000. So they’re paying the new tax right? Just confirming that they received their letter too
Gordillo's home does appear on Mamdani's doxxing list of rich New Yorkers subject to a pied-à-terre tax, but the parents have fled to not one luxurious $3 million Florida home, but two of them.
An immigrant from Peru, Gordillo grew up in South Florida with his parents, who ended up thriving in America.
The parents now own a sprawling more than 5,000-square-foot, five-bed, six-bath home in Boca Raton that is currently on the market for $3.1 million, records show.
They also own another $3 million home in Weston, Fla., that is just slightly larger and has five beds and seven baths.
Whew! That's a whole lot of baths. Probably not enough for Gordillo to clean his conscience, though.
Councilmember Vicki Palladino, one of the few sane politicians in New York City, absolutely tore into Gordillo's hypocrisy and hierarchy.
