Far-Right Publication Duped into Publishing Communist Manifesto Excerpts
A right-wing pundit successfully tricked the far-right evangelical magazine *American Reformer* into publishing an essay comprised of edited passages from *The Communist Manifesto*. This hoax, intended to expose a “woke right” within the conservative movement, highlights a deeper struggle over the definition and goals of Trumpism. The prank exposed significant divisions within the Trump coalition regarding the philosophical ambitions of their movement and its relationship to traditional conservative principles. This internal conflict, likely to intensify with Trump’s return to power, underscores the instability of the current right-wing alliance.
