So if you try to go to the Party of Communists USA website, you get a relatively short document by former members accusing the part of really bad stuff like reporting members to bosses and defending pedophiles.

Said members split and formed the American Council of Bolsheviks. As the Party of Communists USA is essentially dead due to these shenanigans, is the new organization worth working with? And can anybody give any perspective about this whole controversy?

      Christopher Helali, he's a high-ranking member of PCUSA. When they attempted to bring politics to the masses they ran him for congress in 2020 I believe and the mainstream media tried this tactic on him. Suddenly anarchistic adventurists and imperialist soldiers who worked with him in the past (he "served" in the US in northern Syria) came out of the woodwork to call him everything from an asshole to a rapist when he wanted to platform Marxist politics in the US.

      I wasn't aware FinBol's had screenshots. Do you happen to have any links? FinBol's case doesn't match the same pattern as the other 2 as there were no group of "insiders" with him, I simply threw him in there because he too is a leftist who was accused of sexual-based crimes and as from what I understood he was innocent.
