希拉里的美国：民主党的秘密历史Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party Movie Script

Big-city bosses were a local racket.

The Democrats needed a pitch for why they should be running the whole country in the same way they were running the inner cities.

I knew exactly who I should see.

Jonah Goldberg is an editor at the National Review.

Jonah, Democrats used to call themselves very commonly ''liberals.'' But today, more commonly, they use the term ''progressive.'' What does ''progressive'' actually mean?

Social engineering and social control, where experts and bureaucrats and government officials guide society in a very specific forward direction, towards an end goal in mind.

It kind of seems, Jonah, like the film Metropolis.

It was all about class struggle and social control.

[Goldberg] Right.

Now it was the era of political parties and political movements that were going to guide society forward.

Planning, which empowers the planners.

There was this revolution in Europe and in the United States.

In America, we called it Progressivism.

Soviet Union, they called it Communism.

In Italy, they called it Fascism.

The flagship magazine of American Liberalism, the New Republic, celebrated Benito Mussolini throughout the 1920s.

FDR had nice things to say about Benito Mussolini.

Mussolini reviews FDR's book and says, ''Hey, this guy is one of us.

He's a Fascist.'' And it's important to remember that Fascism back then wasn't about the Holocaust.

It was about planning and experimenting and ushering in this new progressive era.

And one of the very important strands of modern Progressivism, the idea of eugenics, who is the figure that comes to mind, who embodies this?

I mean, the obvious answer to the question is Margaret Sanger.

- Thank you for coming.

- Thank you.

I'm Margaret Sanger.
