Everything You Need To Know About The Radical Leftists Trying To Shut Down The DNC

 CHICAGO—A ragtag coalition of communists, anti-Israel demonstrators, revolutionary feminists, and more have descended on the Windy City to attack the Democratic Party and Vice President Kamala Harris from the Left.

The March on the DNC is comprised of more than 150 extremist groups that “support terrorism and/or identify as Marxist, communist, or anarchist,” according to the Capital Research Center. Members of the coalition have praised Hamas, pushed for a communist revolution, and called for political violence. On Monday, members of the group toppled a barricade outside the convention.

On Sunday, a group called “Behind Enemy Lines,” handed flyers out at a smaller protest before the start of the convention. The extremist organization isn’t shy about its willingness to use violence to achieve its political goals.

“In Behind Enemy Lines, we strive to approach all of our political work with the discipline and seriousness required in the struggle against imperialism,” reads an article on the group’s site. It goes on to praise the use of violence by Leftists during the Black Lives Matter riots.

“To borrow an example from some comrades: hundreds, if not thousands of protests against police killings took place in the summer of 2020,” the group says. “None of them were as effective in delivering a message than the burning of the 3rd Police Precinct in Minneapolis in a spontaneous outpouring of the rage of the masses, all done without group chats or the leadership of ‘experienced activists.’”

The protest attracted a wide range of different extreme Leftists, including one protester who openly sided with the terrorist organization Hamas, holding a sign that read “Armed resistance is the only answer. End Israel, stand with Hamas.”

The Capital Research Center’s investigation indicates that this protester’s opinion may be commonplace among the other demonstrators. The group found that “the extremist groups have ties to or have expressed support for 19 foreign terrorist organizations,” including Hamas, Hezbollah, the Muslim Brotherhood, the Communist Party of the Philippines, and the Taliban, among others.

Monday’s protest, which began at Chicago’s Union Park, was primarily focused on the Israel-Palestine conflict, with the far-Left demonstrators accusing the Democratic Party, “genocide Joe,” and “killer Kamala,” of being complicit in genocide. Attendees heard from Dr. Cornel West, a leftwing activist and political candidate, who slammed the Democrats while speaking to The Daily Wire.

“Shame on the Democratic Party who can’t meet a low moral litmus test of calling genocide into question, you can’t deny it. Quit enabling it,” West said after giving a speech.

Other radical elements in attendance included the Revolutionary Communist Party, which distributed flyers blasting Harris as a “mass murderer and mass incarcerator” before calling on people to “seize on this rare opportunity to build up the basis for revolution.”

The protests are expected to continue on Wednesday and Thursday.
