A place to ask questions of Lemmygrad's best and brightest

I recently came across the name of a Communist party I hadn't heard of before, simply called KP (Kommunistische Partei). Until now, I was only aware of the DKP and MLPD. I'm honestly just curious as to why the KP even exists?

If any of my German comrades have insights or information about this, I would greatly appreciate it.

I live in Germany and i've never heard of them. The main ones are DKP (successor of KPD), SGP (Trots) and MLPD (probably feds).

Where have you heard of them? Are they a regional group maybe? In any case they've never appeared on election ballots federally.

Asking for a friend: how much were you joking about the mlpd?

I found their website

Edit: The KP seems to be a split-off of the KO (Kommunistische Organisation). Never heard of them either though.
