Prominent Catholic leader Bishop Robert Barron, Bishop of the Diocese of Winona-Rochester, Minnesota, and founder of \u201cWord on Fire<\/a>,\u201d slammed radical socialist Zohran Mamdani following his disturbing inauguration speech.<\/p>\n

Mamdani was sworn in as the 112th mayor of New York City just after midnight on New Year\u2019s Day in an abandoned subway station beneath City Hall.<\/p>\n

Mamdani, born in Uganda and a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, placed his hand on the Quran during the oath, administered by none other than radical New York Attorney General Letitia James.<\/p>\n

Following the underground ceremony, a public inauguration with another socialist Senator Bernie Sanders is scheduled to take place later today on the steps of City Hall.<\/span><\/p>\n

The new mayor made sure to pepper his speech with socialist rhetoric. \u00a0He actually said these words out loud<\/a> in his speech: \u201cWe will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.\u201d<\/p>\n

Barron shared on X that Mamdani\u2019s declaration \u201ctook my breath away.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was a line from Zohran Mamdani\u2019s inaugural address yesterday that took my breath away,\u201d Barron wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe said he intended to replace \u2018the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.’\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCollectivism in its various forms is responsible for the deaths of at least one hundred million people in the last century.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSocialist and Communist forms of government around the world today\u2014Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea, etc.\u2014are disastrous. Catholic social teaching has consistently condemned socialism and has embraced the market economy, which people like Mayor Mamdani caricature as \u2018rugged individualism.’\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn fact, it is the economic system that is based upon the rights, freedom, and dignity of the human person. For God\u2019s sake, spare me the \u2018warmth of collectivism.’\u201d<\/p>\n
