What exactly is propaganda and lies? The Democratic party in the United States is not a Marxist party. If you think so, you are deluding yourself. The Democratic party is very much a centrist party that is run for and by some very wealthy and powerful people who could hardly be called Marxists. The Democratic party has steadily drifted from left to center/right over the past 3 decades. Just look at how pro-business the Clinton Administration was in comparison to other Democractic administrations in the 20th century. Just look at how anti-business the Democrats were in the 1960s and 1970s and how much they've moderated their positions today. You've got it all wrong, today's Dems are moving away from their left-wing anti-business roots. The vacum they are leaving on the left is allowing the Greens to rise up to take their place as the standard bearers of left-wing politics. True Marxist partys in the U.S. (yes, there are quite a few: Workers World, Revolutionary Communist Party, Socialist Workers Party, etc.) have almost no say at all in American politics. They have been marginalized for decades and will be for the foreseeable future.
