Default "liberalism" to "socialism" to "communism": The "end" justifies the "means" in America

"PJ O'Donovan" wrote:

"I seek social ownership of property, the abolition of the properties
class, and sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the
goal." --Roger Baldwin, leftist, anarchist, and Communist, co-founded
the ACLU.

"The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under
the name of 'liberalism' they will adopt every fragment of the
Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation,
without knowing how it happened."
-- Norman Thomas, co-founded the ACLU.

And that was in 1920! Have you got something more recent than eighty
years old? Both of them have been dead for over twenty years.
