    “when you walk out on an Israeli comrade, you’re walking out on the working class.”

    Cum party USA folks a-little-trolling

    On the last day of the convention, a white Party elder from Connecticut gave a speech calling all dissenters on Resolution 5 “racist” and “chauvinist” for refusing to support a genocidal, bourgeois administration with the statement, “Black and brown comrades fought and died for the right to vote, and you don’t want to?”

    Holy shit, holy fuck how do you tolerate this and not break this fucking crackers head wide open (in minecraft)?

    The most bothersome reason for liquidation is this accusation of “Black Nationalism” levied because we read from members of the Black Panther Party, and participate in mutual aid work.

    I am now convinced that CPUSA is just a fed honeypot. But you know, I would have said the same thing about the Israeli communist party. Settlers can't be communists and if you don't purge the settlers they'll take over your org. I'm glad the chapter bounced back into a independent mutual aid org.

      Back in the day when it was an actual influential entity? Sure. But the thing with infiltrations is that you eventually don’t need to do active measures. Like Lenin says, revolutionary icons are defanged and neutered. The next generation of curious people join the already destabilized and sabotaged organizations with the watered down ideology, and they organically prolong that watered down organization. It’s a hollowed out shell of an organization. Even the feds have already left for more interesting projects. The best form of propaganda and political warfare is when people carry it out for you unwittingly, much like capitalist realism.

        I don't think the feds would leave the organization just because it's no longer relevant. Destabilizing an already destabilized organization is a cushy job, and there's no need to tell anyone further up the management hierarchy that it's completely superfluous.

    First, one major problem within the local chapter is that we currently have no Black members.

    Honestly, on brand for Austin lmao.

    I wasn't sure what exactly this accusation meant earlier, but reading it now, it's such a ridiculous thing to dissolve them over. My opinion that CPUSA = fedposting is further resolved.

    If they've done that then fuck it, take the members list of every single member of the chapter, contact them all, organise and migrate to PSL. Continue work exactly as before under them without skipping a beat.

    Don't hesitate. Don't think "but it will just reinforce their factionalism accusation". Don't worry about loyalty you are NOT party members anymore(exactly what Corbyn did hesitating to fight labour after being kicked out). Just fucking do it. No hesitation.

    The entire fucking org should do it anyway. The org has dud leadership and they are mechanically irremovable, this makes it an entirely unsalvagable org. Every single member that wants to make a successful org should migrate to the one that does not have these flaws.

    Just saying but if you're member of such "communist" party that say that about Biden, black nationalism and Israel, you just get up, walk out and never come back.

      I hope so. The "actually be minimally communist" reform group lost and is probably not worth (re)building and so nobody should waste their time trying to tear them away from corrupt liberal cooption.

          Posting this incase that wasn't aimed at the Texas Disrict Commitee for some reason.

          Second, we see no issue with the concept of Black Nationalism as described by Malcom X and the Black Panther Party. While this is not something we, as a majority white chapter, are openly advocating for, why does CPUSA see Black Nationalism as a threat to their working class movement? It is up to those of us who do not live the Black experience to educate ourselves as much as possible on how to support our Black neighbors, their needs, and understand their experiences. Black Nationalism is simply self determination.

            Huh, I thought this was just a dogwhistle racists used, my bad. Kind of assumed if the accusation was being used to justify liquidation, it had to be a dogwhistle thing.
