The Socialism 2026 Conference in Chicago is underway this weekend and, in the words of Obi-Wan Kenobi, you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
The four-day conference states that it is a home for radicals (on the website, even) and includes speakers like Hasan Piker and Mumia Abu-Jamal. Topics range from defeating "fascists" through revolution and, well, defeating them by abolishing prisons and, um, using tarot cards.
The conference still requires (yes, requires, not suggests) face masks and a "non-carceral" approach to checking badges.
We're not even sure what that last one means, but if you want a glimpse into the absolute bat-poop crazy that is Socialism 2026, take a peek at the gift that Piker received during his panel session.
🚨 BREAKING: Hasan Piker was just gifted a “Satan’s School of Gay Communism” hat at Socialism 2026, drawing a huge round of applause.

The hat came from a member of S.W.A.N., a pro-abortion activist group known for confrontational protests and harassing opponents. pic.twitter.com/roLmjsZt0S
Yikes. If the conference were in Massachusetts, we'd bet that attendees made up 11 of the jurors in the Lindsay Clancy trial.
Stu Smith of the Manhattan Institute has been documenting all of the insanity at Socialism 2026. Yesterday, he shared remarks from one of the panels entitled "Health Fascism, Body Politics, and the Anti-State State."
Again, we have no idea what any of that means, but here is land whale and speaker Da'Shaun Harrison proclaiming that trying to help black people lose weight and get healthy is just another form of — yep, you guessed it — fascism.

🚨 Da’Shaun L. Harrison at Socialism 2026 argues that the policing of “Black fat flesh” is foundational to broader "entire systems of governance."

“Without a population to discipline, there would be no BMI, no obesity epidemic, and no medical or scientific institutions organized… pic.twitter.com/GP4foaTgUJ
You could almost understand why Harrison would feel this way, looking at him. Declaring fitness to be fascism sounds a lot easier than doing a single sit-up or eating a salad.
But here is the much thinner Beatrice Adler-Bolton (of the ironically named Death Panel podcast) also declaring that getting into shape is just another form of oppressive discipline from the capitalist pigs.
🚨 “The More Dysgenic, the Better”: Beatrice Adler-Bolton Says the Left Must Give Up the “Fantasy of Being Fitter Than the Fascists”

"The more dysgenic, the better."
It would almost be encouraging to hear that in terms of the long-term future of Communists. Except we're pretty sure that they don't just want this for themselves; they want to force it on everyone.
This is her position. She wants more of this. She's an absolute psychopath. pic.twitter.com/QiLDkmAJBa

To be fair, we already knew that she and everyone else at Socialism 2026 were psychopaths based on how much they celebrate actually killing offspring (in the womb or afterwards).
Can they actually get more dysgenic?

LOL.
We're not sure that's possible, but we can tell that Harrison is giving it his best shot.
The fat made it to his head.
— SoOverIt (@anypigslft2) September 5, 2026
The adipocytes seem to have cut off all blood flow to his brain, that's for sure.
Unsurprisingly, it appears that he didn't even write his remarks.
and would it shock you to learn the speech was all ai generated too? pic.twitter.com/cCMeR6RLDF

Nope. Not even a little bit surprised.

But Ozempic is slavery!

These people can never be allowed to win again https://t.co/Wiq33otF0B
With any luck, they'll eat so much that they won't even be able to make it to the polls or even to the mailbox.
We can only hope their ballot harvesters become morbidly out of shape as well.
Fitness is capitalistic fascism, the Socialist lectured through her Covid mask, in 2026. Never cede an inch of power to these people. https://t.co/Nes69etxhL
— Guy Benson (@guypbenson) September 5, 2026
And definitely not 54 inches, which appears to be the measurement of Harrison's waistline.
Hahaha they did the meme https://t.co/V9Fi3pR7CM pic.twitter.com/wUPVBl9KBO

No wonder they're all wearing masks.
We are watching the development of slave morality in real time. https://t.co/xF9vrJZq9a

They're doing a good job of it. 👍 pic.twitter.com/f7Szw0flqC

What a horror show.
We apologize to our readers for not prefacing that image with a "trigger warning."

He sounds so well-adjusted, doesn't he?
Ironically, if Harrison and Adler-Bolton get the Communism they want, there won't BE any food, healthy or otherwise.
"The more dysgenic, the better," is basically the slogan of the modern left. https://t.co/d7QuBW17OC

If only they would reserve that lifestyle for themselves and not try to gain power so they can impose it on all of us.
But that's not how Communism works, of course.
We can't wait for more highlights today from Socialism 2026. One of the panels is entitled "Psychic Militancy."
And, no, we are not joking.
That's all the world needs. A fat, ugly, militant Jean Grey.
