In a couple of weeks, our new city council members will be seated. Readers might recall my asking recently what socialist groups were behind the election of multiple outright Marxists to the city council, and why the local media had blacked out reporting about this.
I heard from a friend that the group Indivisible might have been behind what happened. I don’t know whether that is true, but it is certainly plausible. Indivisible is one of at least several socialist groups active in local communities. It was started up by a couple of Jewish folks at the national level.
Wikipedia reports the following about Indivisible’s funding:
In March 2017, (Ezra) Levin said that Indivisible had received over 10,000 donations that totaled over $500,000 since January through ActBlue.[30] In October 2017, the New York Times reported that Indivisible had received almost $6 million since its inception, mostly through small donations via its website as well as from Reid Hoffman and organizations linked to Democracy Alliance donors.[31] The latest top donors list included a number of prominent tech companies including Apple and Alphabet.| In April 2025, The Hill reported that since 2017, Indivisible Project, which is the group’s 501(c) body, had received over $7.6 million from George Soros’s Open Society Foundations.
ActBlue is the socialist fundraising platform that was the subject of reporting on its methods. That reporting indicated it accepted large foreign donations and fraudulently attributed the money to individual “donors” around the country. People learned political donations had been made in their name; and were completely unaware that it had been happening.
Reid Hoffmann has been associated with Jeffrey Epstein.
The tech companies are notoriously left wing.
And everybody knows Soros.
I wonder how many of the campaign operatives getting out the vote in Greensboro were paid with this kind of dirty money raised at the national level.
In the People’s Republic of Greensboro, they don’t need outside left wing money. They have their own socialist PACs. Don’t candidates have to file a financial report with the board of elections? If they do, the answer lies in those records.
While I don’t disagree, Fred, I still think there was something different this election cycle that goes beyond the candidates’ own campaign finance reports. If a group like Indivisible were providing its local chapter with money for oomph behind a certain panel of Marxist candidates, that might explain the difference.
