    • 2016 November 27, Joel Kotkin, “The Corbynization of the Democratic Party”, in Orange County Register[1]:
      The Corbynization of the Democratic Party also turns on militant multiculturalism. This agenda is shaped, as in Britain, by a disjointed concert of grievance groups, ranging from gender activists to those who claim to represent Latinos, African Americans, Asians, Muslims and others, whose alienation has been exacerbated by Trump’s triumph.
    • 2019 August 15, Robert Philpot, “Is Corbynization the Democratic Party’s Future?”, in Commentary[2]:
      The Democrats may be far from that stage, but they stand at a crossroads if they do not act to end the onward march of American Corbynization.
    • 2021 January 15, Melissa Weiss, Sam Zieve Cohen, quoting Ritchie Torres, “Ritchie Torres vows to prevent the ‘Corbynization’ of progressive politics”, in Jewish Insider[3]:
      “It only takes a few demagogues to pump antisemitic poison into the bloodstream of a political party. And so I see it as my mission to resist the Jeremy Corbynization of progressive politics in the United States.”
