The CPUSA leadership are corrupt, backwards, and completely out of touch with their reality as an organization and material reality in the United States.

The only main pushes seem to be for empty electoralism for Democrat politics and never any other substantial effort. The leadership are completely unable to let go of the fact that it’s not the 1960’s-80’s anymore. They are also Pro-Khrushchev and believe in market economics.

The party line is that they are literally opposed to a revolution. They are a liberal shill party that’s an empty shell of its former self, and the positions are extremely idealist and removed from material reality.

Actually, they are not corrupt or backwards. They are more realistic and in touch than most other orgs.

We do not and never have endorsed Democrats as well.

We are also anti-Khruschv.

We are also not opposed to revolution.

👍

There is evidence to back up every single one of these claims? Why lie???

One of the lines is literally "We have to defeat Trump by voting Hillary"

Leaders in the 50's/60's to the modern day continued to parrot Khrushchev "revelations" about Stalin.

Here they explicitly lay out that the movement will see victory against fascism and will lead the "Revolution", through electoral means, and that with the ballot box they can strike blows against the right wing.
