    Imagine the CPUSA being the first "leftist" party in the US to make significant gains. Not like it'll happen but would be pretty funny

        Not when it's a stratified group of labor aristocrats that inherited and hold all the keys, passwords and IPs to anything the old Party has ever been involved with.

        I'd imagine that even if all of the clubs and district organizers that make up the national committee that votes for the members of the Central Committee, Politburo, General Secretary, etc. were replaced with Marxist-Leninists and elected communists to those central positions to oust the radlibs, I believe those chumps would fight tooth and nail to take or destroy everything that the Party has built up since 1919

        DSA is far too radical for the CPUSA. They occasionally accidentally do praxis.

      It was making significant gains. In the past it helped arm people against even the FDR admin. it is a disgrace today

        I meant as in having a significant presence with elected officials. Socialist Party of America did better on that front.
