Dinesh D'Souza: “Democratic socialism differs from totalitarian socialism kind of like gang rape differs from individual rape”
DINESH D'SOUZA: In some ways, at the level of pure principle, democratic socialism differs from totalitarian socialism kind of like gang rape differs from individual rape.

In both cases, the coercion -- whether the coercion comes from one guy or a majority. Imagine you have a group of people and they all have one marble, right? And one guy has 10 marbles. So authoritarian socialism means that one guy gets to grab the guy who has 10 marbles and takes his marbles. Here's democratic socialism: a majority of the people with one marble all decide to use the same level of force, but use the fact that a majority of them have decided to confiscate the other guy's -- in both cases the other guy's deprived of his property. In one case it's done by one guy, in the other case it's done, by force, by a group, claiming the legitimacy of the majority. And that's my point is in the sense from the point of view of principle, there's no fundamental difference. There's a confiscation in both cases, there's force employed in both cases, and an injustice is done in both cases.
