美国民众聚集在国家广场,参加唐纳德·特朗普总统为庆祝美国建国250周年的大美国州博览会启动的“美国250”活动。他们表示,纽约的社会主义者获胜是对民主党人的一个警告信号,他们认为历史早已否定了这条道路。
“如果你研究历史,就会发现许多国家已经尝试过这条道路,最终都陷入了灾难,”佐治亚州11年级教师吉尔说道。“如果你和那些来自社会主义国家的移民聊一聊,你就会知道他们离开那些倾向共产主义的国家,正是出于这个原因。”
福克斯新闻数字频道采访了周三晚间聚集在国家广场的美国民众,他们前来参加特朗普为庆祝美国建国250周年而举办的大美国州博览会启动集会。在集会上,参与者分享了他们为何认为社会主义在美国行不通。
这些评论发表于纽约市社会主义者市长佐赫兰·姆amdani周二再次取得政治胜利之后——他背书的三名国会候选人——布拉德·兰德、克莱尔·巴尔德斯和达里亚利扎·阿维拉·谢瓦利尔——均赢得了各自的民主党初选。
纽约市初选遭社会主义“地震”冲击,胜负浮出水面
此次胜利被广泛视为姆amdani在民主党中影响力日益扩大、社会主义思潮日益被接受的又一迹象。
纽约多场备受瞩目的民主党初选中的社会主义胜利引发了强烈的政治反差,特朗普集会的许多参与者告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,这清晰地提醒了他们国家正在滑向的危险方向。
集会参与者吉尔告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,她16岁时曾在柏林墙倒塌之际前往东德。如今,她会向学生展示这次旅行的照片,将这段经历融入课堂教学。
“我给学生们看照片,和他们讨论共产主义意味着什么……资本主义让我们走到了今天。我们作为资本主义国家已经很长时间了。他们在投票时必须格外小心。他们需要认真学习,成为见多识广的选民,”吉尔继续说道。
尽管社会主义在苏联和东德已经覆灭,但它仍在古巴和委内瑞拉等国的政府中发挥着影响——唐纳德·特朗普总统已将这两个国家作为其外交政策的重点,以支持民主变革。

“我不支持社会主义……看看古巴,那里的情况……和周边其他加勒比国家相比,完全不一样。他们开着旧车,连暖气和空调都没有……资本主义让这一切成为可能。所以我非常支持靠自己的努力争取想要的东西……我仍然认为美国是一个美国梦仍能实现的地方,”来自肯塔基州的托尼说道。
“共产主义已经导致1亿人死亡,无论是中国的毛泽东、苏联的斯大林,还是希特勒。我们不能忘记历史,否则我们很可能会重蹈覆辙,我们绝对应该拒绝社会主义。它在任何地方都没有成功过。而资本主义和自由市场社会已经造福了全世界,”来自马里兰州安纳波利斯的大卫说道。
从田纳西州赶来的詹妮弗表示,她对美国社会主义思潮的抬头感到担忧。
“这对我们的国家和价值观没有好处,”她说。
前纽约罗切斯特居民诺玛告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,她有10个孙子孙女,非常担心下一代的未来。
“我不得不说,纽约已经差不多无可救药了……我在那里住了22年。那里有保守派人士,但不幸的是,新的议程正在蔓延,”她说。
纽约选民涌向社会主义式福利,姆amdani推动房租冻结、城市自营商店
姆amdani因多项提案遭到保守派批评,包括免费乘坐城市公交、全民免费 childcare(注:此处原文为childcare,标准译法为儿童保育)以及城市自营杂货店。活动现场的美国人告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,所谓的“免费”项目最终都要由纳税人买单。
“社会主义承诺一切,但他们无法动用所有人的钱来兑现承诺……历史已经证明了社会主义为何会失败……事实胜于雄辩,”来自北卡罗来纳州的比利说道。
“我完全不同意……我们不可能靠免费赠送一切来运转,”来自田纳西州的尼基说道。
危险还是机遇?年轻保守派热议社交媒体作为政治讨论平台
当福克斯新闻数字频道询问Z世代和千禧一代选民姆amdani是否“受欢迎”时,来自马萨诸塞州的莎拉以及来自加利福尼亚州的约翰娜和伊丽莎白回答:“不。”
“我理解社会主义的吸引力,但我绝对不认为这是我们国家应该走的正确道路。我认为从理论上讲,它说得通,”莎拉说。“但在现实中,结果并非如此。看到这么多同龄人倾向这条道路,确实令人担忧。”
“社会主义声称一切免费,这是个很棒的理念,但在现实世界中根本行不通,”约翰娜补充道。“看看那些已经尝试过社会主义的国家,它们都没有成功。这也不会鼓励创新。”
正在华盛顿特区游玩一周的伊丽莎白同意她朋友的观点,补充道:“我不是社会主义者。我是共和党人。”

Americans gathered on the National Mall for President Donald Trump’s America250 kickoff at the Great American State Fair said New York’s socialist surge is a warning sign for Democrats — one they argue history has already rejected.
“If you study history, you will see that many countries have already tried to go down that path and ended up in disaster,” said 11th grade Georgia teacher Jill. “If you talk to immigrants who came from countries that were socialist, they will tell you they left you know tending toward communist countries. They left for that reason.”
Fox News Digital spoke with Americans who gathered on the National Mall Wednesday evening for Trump’s rally kicking off the Great American State Fair celebrating the nation’s 250th anniversary, where attendees shared why they believe socialism would fail in the United States.
The comments follow New York City socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani scoring another political victory Tuesday, with all three congressional candidates he endorsed—Brad Lander, Claire Valdez and Darializa Avila Chevalier—winning their respective Democratic primaries.

The victories were widely viewed as another sign of Mamdani’s growing influence in the Democrat Party and the increasing acceptance of socialism.
The socialist victories in several high-profile New York Democratic primaries drew a sharp political contrast that many attendees of Trump’s rally told Fox News Digital served as a stark reminder of the direction they fear the country is heading.
Rally attendee Jill told Fox News Digital that she traveled to East Germany at the age of 16 when the Berlin Wall was coming down, an experience she now brings into the classroom by showing her students photos from the trip.
“I show my students pictures, and we talk about what communism means … capitalism is what’s got us here. We’ve been a capitalist country for a very long time. They have to be extremely careful when voting. They need to study and be well-informed voters,” Jill continued.
While socialism collapsed in the Soviet Union and East Germany, it continues to shape the governments of countries such as Cuba and Venezuela—two nations that President Donald Trump has made a focus of his foreign policy efforts in an effort to support democratic change.

“I don’t support socialism … If you look at Cuba, the difference there… compared to even the other Caribbean countries around it, it’s totally different. And they’re driving old cars. They don’t have even heating and air … capitalism makes that possible. And so I’m very much in favor of working for what you want … I still think America is a place where the American dream can still come true,” said Toni of Kentucky.
“A hundred million people died from communism, whether it be from China and Mao or Stalin and Russia, Hitler. We can’t forget our history, or we have a tendency to repeat it, and we should definitely reject this. It’s never worked anywhere. And capitalism and a free market society has benefited the world,” David of Annapolis, Maryland, said.
Jennifer, who traveled from Tennessee, said she is worried about the rise of socialism in America.
“It’s not something that’s beneficial for our country and our values,” she said.
Former Rochester, New York, resident Norma told Fox News Digital she has 10 grandchildren and is worried about the next generation.
“New York is pretty much, I hate to say, far gone… I lived there for 22 years. There are conservative people there, but unfortunately, there’s this new agenda coming through,” she said.

Mamdani has faced criticism from conservatives over proposals including fare-free city buses, universal free childcare and city-run grocery stores, with Americans at the event telling Fox News Digital that “free” programs ultimately come at taxpayers’ expense.
“Socialism promises everything, but they can’t deliver past everybody’s money… history has shown where socialism fails… the proof is in the pudding,” said Billy of North Carolina.
“I don’t agree with it at all… we can’t function on giving everything away for free,” said Nicky of Tennessee.
DANGEROUS OR AN OPPORTUNITY? SOCIAL MEDIA AS VENUE FOR DISCUSSING POLITICS DEBATED BY YOUNG CONSERVATIVES

When Fox News Digital asked Gen Z and Millennial voters whether Mamdani is “cool,” Sarah of Massachusetts and Johanna and Elizabeth of California responded, “no.”
“I understand the appeal that socialism has, but definitely don’t think that it’s the right way our country should be going. I think in theory it makes sense,” said Sarah. “In reality, that’s not how it ends up looking. It’s definitely scary to see so many of my generation leaning that way.”

“It’s a really good concept to have everything for free in socialism, but it doesn’t really work out in the real world,” added Johanna. “If you look at the countries that have already tried socialism, it really hasn’t worked. It also doesn’t encourage innovation.”
Elizabeth, visiting Washington, D.C. for the week, said she agreed with her friends, adding, “I’m not a socialist. I’m a Republican.”
