During the peak of the 1980s AIDS crisis, #LaRouchites launched a massive, paranoid political campaign in California (Proposition 64) to force mandatory HIV testing and place those affected into quarantine camps.

@kailacrosse.bsky.social#Larouchites categorize trans advocacy and gender identity education as a top-down "oligarchical agenda" or a psychological operation designed by the ruling class to degrade traditional family structures and confuse young people.
@kailacrosse.bsky.socialModern #LaRouchites like #JoseVega frequently champion a nationalistic trend known as "patriotic socialism" or MAGA-communism. They seek to fuse selective leftist economic rhetoric with right-wing populism, conservative social values, and American nationalism
@kailacrosse.bsky.social#LaRouchites reject the concept of class struggle. Instead of viewing capitalism as an exploitative system driven by the bourgeoisie, they attribute economic problems to an erratic, conspiratorial cabal of international bankers and "British imperialists." So why as a #Socialist do you support this?
@kailacrosse.bsky.socialLike literally #bloodlibel. Supporting someone who is antisemitic does not help the stereotype that we Socialists dislike Israel because we don't like Jews. I dislike Israel because of colonialism and think it paints Jewish people in a negative light. #Larouchites are Nazis
@kailacrosse.bsky.socialYeah no thank you. I don't support #Larouchites
