Ep. 2413 - The RADICAL Third World Invasion Of The Democratic Party

5 min read

Ben Shapiro argues that the Democratic Party is sliding irreversibly toward "third worldism," a radical ideology blaming Western exploitation for global inequality, fueled by political figures from third-world backgrounds who despise America and allied with homegrown leftists eager to dismantle Western civilization.
