The most obvious is the 1986 Chernobyl event for me.

    Disagreed, the name change from CPUSA to CPA - which one can concider a form of liquidation in the sense that the Leninist party of a new type model was abandoned in favor of moving towards becoming a more mainstream party in a precurser to the eurocommunist parties of europe - stems from Browder's blunder in assuming FDR wouldn't suddenly croak in office during the time Henry Wallace got replaced with a rattlesnake southern Democrat who would lead the crusade to liquidate the American u.s-soviet coexistence wing of government alongside the Reds in the purge.

    The old party during the Browderite dissolution, and I would argue even when during the greatest heights of the Red Scare 2 was a materially a stronger party than the current CPUSA which suffered a true liquidation in the early 2000s at the hands of the Webbite social fascists that wormed their way into power.
