The New York Times features an op-ed today by Corey Robin, a professor of political science at Brooklyn College and the City University of New York Graduate Center.
Under the title, The New Socialists: Why the pitch from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders resonates in 2018, he concludes his essay with this gem:
