The only reason why communist soy boy James Talarico is in the discussion about the open Texas Senate seat is because of all the liberals from California and New York that left their hellholes for the great state of Texas. The communist Democrat Talarico was caught on video talking about how capitalism is an “oppressive system” and how he and Democrat vow to dismantle it.
Texas Democrat U.S. Senate nominee James Talarico described capitalism as one of three interconnected “oppressive systems” during a 2020 climate forum and spoke of beginning the process of “dismantling” them, employing rhetoric similar to language used at the time by Democratic Socialists of America and other progressive climate activists.
CNN reported Tuesday that Talarico, then a 31-year-old state representative seeking reelection to a second term in the Texas House, made the remarks during a September 2020 virtual climate candidate forum hosted by the Austin chapter of the Sierra Club alongside four other Texas House candidates.
“I’m so thankful that you asked this question and also thankful that young activists have really drawn the link between climate change and White supremacy and capitalism in our country,” Talarico said after being asked what lawmakers could do to address the disproportionate effects of climate change on communities of color.
“And I think only ending the ways that all three of those oppressive systems work together are we gonna be able to begin the process of dismantling them,” he continued.
Talarico also criticized the future of Texas’s oil and gas industry during the Sierra Club forum.
