[Edited Message Follows] " our movement is polarized between the path of subservience to the Democrats and the path of independent class politics."
Much of this has to do with how we can most effectively use the options we have while and looking to independent possibilities in the future. Joe Sims, co-chair of the CPUSA recently spoke on the need to actively return that party to running candidates as well as to tapping existing anger and resistance to push growth and education. https://cpusa.org/article/the-right-wing-billionaire-grip-on-government-must-be-broken/?emci=8aa44c72-56ed-ef11-90cb-0022482a94f4&emdi=f8bb4db5-75ed-ef11-90cb-0022482a94f4&ceid=5624471 As I've written elsewhere, and I think we are in agreement on this, what is needed is an organized united front coalition and movement capable of running candidates, and more importantly, with revolutionary potential. I don't think we need to start from scratch, which is why I suggested using an already existing coalition party and building on that foundation -- The Working Families Party has that potential in my opinion. Beyond that, as Sims points out, are our struggles between right opportunism and narrow left sectarianism which is at the crux of your thesis. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
