The labor movement has been exhausted of its revolutionary potential, in most instances actually serving as a buttress for reaction and a pillar of imperialism, but because our Communists are mechanical in their application of historical materialism (often in the service of opportunism), they focus on recreating the precise tactics of past revolutionaries rather than drawing lessons from revolutionary history and applying them creatively.
This most recent scandal again demonstrates the inseparability of the structures of organizing we have criticized in the past from the perpetuation of chauvinism and abuse.
It is necessary to strike at the chains the workers of the imperial centers have helped forge and to draw them away from the side of their “own” bourgeoisie.
The CPUSA, FRSO, PSL, and DSA are not identical, but all suffer from a palpable stagnancy.
The Party will form the vanguard of the revolution only when the masses of the most oppressed internationally recognize it as their representative and their weapon in the class struggle, wielded by and in the interests of the international proletariat.
For us to bring about the revolution in the imperial centers we must not only combat the powerful forces of the enemy state, but also their auxiliaries, the pure revolutionists, who insist on ignoring all existing conditions.
Leading Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO) theoretician J. Sykes purports to refute the theory that the United States is a settler-colonial nation. The piece is, to put it bluntly, intellectually lazy and starts from an unfounded conclusion and works backwards to justify it, setting up strawman opponents and dressing up a shallow and flawed analysis in Mao quotes to do so.
The failure of the Communist movement to contend with the realities of gender emancipation and national liberation are critical errors of the past century of struggle. As such, it is absolutely critical for Communist organizations in this country to put forward a comprehensive and complete understanding of these concepts if they hope to be successful.
It is exceedingly easy to apply a mechanical analysis to the DSA and dismiss the “party” without a second thought – but we are not in the third period and the DSA is not the SDP.
