Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Honestly, MLs tend to do this with a lot of convos, I feel.

We are neither reformist or tailist.

Did anticolonialism and Black self-determination ever make it back into the party platform post-Civil Rights Movement? Did they ever apologize for purges of revolutionary Black nationalists in the wake of white Amerika's uproar over the (in tragic hindsight) false Emmett Till allegations? Did they ever decouple from assimilationism and settler-leftism? Historically, CPUSA has been a capitulatory organization. I do not expect anything better of them in the modern day. This is a 'show and prove' moment.

Actually, we never gave up on anti-colonialism and Black self-determination.

Also, we never purged Black nationalists; many remained with the party.

We are not assimilationist or anything like that.

You're kinda just repeating fed talking points, no offense. 😜

...Cool; this conversation is over with 'cause after that? I'm patently incapable of handling you civilly; and this is not your first time showing your ass.

If you're going to "vague-post" you shouldn't bother posting.

I believe it is you who has "showed your ass" lmao 😅
