    The CPUS has a really stark generational divide. Like the chapters tend to be pretty radical places full of young people, while the national org is like all over 65 boomers who think FDR is still in charge of the democrats. Thats what causes the weird schizophrenia in the CPUSA, basically all my chapter members just roll their eyes at the main branch when they send us their lib bullshit.

      There's hope for the future then. I think the same is happening here in Canada's CPC to a subtler extent. Im hopeful we'll both see an increase in young and in-touch/dedicated leadership pretty soon, as more young folks turn to real-world organizing (which, inshallah, is becoming a regular trend). For the moment though i'm helping to revive my city's YCL and central seems enthusiastic abt it.
