          It was meant to make fun of trends at the times regarding Marxism and Marxism-Leninism.

          In truth, this was how many communists in the USA and in the West thought, even if they changed since then. People are taking an article that was made in jest and turning it into something that it isn’t and it certainly doesn’t reflect the co-chair’s views now nor the National Committee of the party.

          In truth, beyond that, I don’t think much of it, I suppose.

          No, I disagree with this as well; I find their constant attacks against my org to be annoying and, often, me and my comrades are essentially ignoring them while they focus on lobbing insults are way. I’ve often tried not to get involved in online arguments with them (well, except for one particular time that was a big exception), but they seem belligerent, even with other orgs, despite some very real issues that their org seems to have that they never even address when confronted about it. That’s what makes their tiff with us annoying, honestly.

            They’re pretty based for what I can tell, but they do have a bit of the grudge against CPUSA. I don’t know too much about it though. Have you heard of Gus Hall? All I know of the dispute is PCUSA says he was a leader in early CPUSA, and they don’t talk about him, and are forgetting their roots.

              I do not like them because of the amount of PatSocs that tend to join the organization, never mind Chris Helali being in it.

              To be honest, their grudge goes back to their founding in 2014, when admittedly the whole Sam Webb affair came to its climax and he was ousted from the party. Angelo D’Angelo obviously had had enough after that, but honestly, some of his and his members attacks against the party seem to either indite everyone or not taken into account the realities of the time, in my honest opinion.

              Of course, the truth is, I wouldn’t care about PCUSA either way and, in truth, did not back then when I eventually joined the CPUSA, but of course, I find their attacks against us annoying and so it seems I’m forced to sometimes contend with them online.

    The PCE (Partido Comunista de España) has actually a seat in the government coalition but they haven’t been communists since the 70s. There are a bunch of other communist parties but you have to sort your way through the patsocs, reactionaries cough Frente Obrero cough, transphobes and revisionists. As in most other imperial core countries, the left is in a very bad state

      Are you spanish? Frente Obrero, i think, is a fascist element in tne MCE. We have to fight him in all the sites that are possible.

        Totally agree with you, comrade. Thankfully the mods have purged most reactionaries from this site (although they rear their stupid head from time to time)
