美国右翼政治人物近来密集使用"共产主义"作为政治武器，对民主党候选人发起攻势[1]。特朗普在两周内援引共产主义多达81次，将其描绘为对美国构成的威胁[1]。这一策略的升温与民主社会主义者支持的候选人在6月民主党初选中赢得多个席位相关联[1]。
分析表明，右翼政治人物将有限的经济政策相似性夸大为包含独裁统治、无神论和暴力革命的完整意识形态[1]。美国国务院曾发布一份100页的报告推动这一叙事[1]，特朗普政府还主持了一场"政治恐怖主义复兴部长级会议"，吸引了65个国家的代表参加[1]。这些举措被认为旨在影响即将到来的中期选举[1]。
Right-wing political figures in the United States are deploying the term "communism" as a rhetorical weapon to attack Democratic opponents, particularly following Democratic Socialists of America-backed candidates' victories in primary elections held in June.[1] Within a two-week period, one prominent figure invoked communism 81 times, framing it as an existential threat.[1]
This political strategy involves dramatically amplifying limited economic similarities into a comprehensive ideological framework that encompasses authoritarianism, atheism, and violent revolution—messaging designed to influence upcoming midterm elections.[1] The Trump administration previously convened a ministerial-level meeting on combating political terrorism, which drew representatives from 65 countries.[1] Additionally, the State Department released a 100-page report addressing the topic.[1] Recent polling has shown approval ratings for one key figure declining to historic lows.[1]
