I used to love going to NYC as a kid and now there’s zero chance I can take my kids there. I also don’t know how we go about getting these cities back under American control. An enemy has disguised itself inside a political party and destroyed our most cherished cities and we still have to act like it’s just part of our democratic system? And they’re doing the same thing with the Somalian takeover of Minnesota. They flood our system then take over our cities and states and then the country. The time of waking up to this invasion is long long overdo. When a group of people say the entire history and beliefs of a country are wrong, and then supplant their own history and beliefs, that is an invasion. That is a takeover. This isn’t one party simply wanting a slightly different approach to governing.

If you're familiar with how leftism works (via large, urban areas ripe for the collectivization of its huge, easily regimented herds), it shouldn't surprise you at all. A view of any electoral map by county would've shown you that, at least for the last 80 years, the big cities have been deep blue. In other words, cities and leftism are strongly linked.
The only difference between then and now is that the urban left has a president whom they despise and their leadership is radicalized to the point of willingness to destroy their own cityscapes in a paroxysm of 'tantrum vandalism' so as to hurt Trump and the conservative public. They know that the wanton destruction grieves us to see it.
Problem with deep blue is deep blue used to mean much different than deep blue now. Deep blue back then was pro union/American worker, still pro America, with a slightly different approach to how to get there. Now it’s destroy our history, hate our police, ignore the American worker, and I could go on and on. Many unions are now too late opening their eyes to how they were fooled into thinking the democrat party is still the democrat party of old.
One thing holds true about the political left (to which the Dem party belongs) and that is the gradual but inexorable creep to the extremist end. It's called the Overton Window. This isn't the Dems' first flirtation with communo-fascism.
In the late 19th c., the Dems became fixated on the radical laborites who would participate in the Railroad Strike and Haymarket Square bombing that killed a bunch of cops. A little later, they sought to unite the hammer of the workers with the sickle of the farmers under the leadership of the populist demagogue Wm. Jennings Bryan.
The Dems also quickly adopted the Progressive movement of RINO leader Teddy Roosevelt, and made it their own for the next century. It's under slimy racist academic, Wilson, that much of the leftist platform of the socialist progressives would be adopted. Then, let's not forget about Huey 'Kingfish' Long, who was a communist long before Boring-commie Bernie came along.
Long was responsible for normalizing FDR's radicalism. FDR harbored an unseemly lust with Mussolini's fascism before Hitler came along. After that, he became a hardcore socialist who allowed himself to fall in love with Stalin and could see no evil in the dictator.
The Dems pushed the news media to become their mouthpiece; they encouraged the radicalism of the antiwar hippies; they tacitly blessed the campus riots and the Watts riots. You're just seeing the very most benign element of the Dem party's radical and destructive side.
Thank you for laying this all out! This was a very interesting read! If I'd had a High School history teacher like you, I would have probably actually gone to class.
The mechanisms haven't changed that much, the leftist dogma has. Remember the do not conserve anything, only progress...but how do they know when they got what they want? They never do, they move the goalpost and keep "progressing." This has always done by blaming their political enemies and their supporters.
The names of the parties and individuals may change through history, but the story is always the same.
They were pretending to be, anyway.
Yup scorched earth policy
