Endless threads asking the same question "how do we adapt Marxism-Leninism to the material conditions of the US", endless parties of endless varieties, since Browder, have asked this same question and there STILL hasn't come a sufficient answer. The typical conclusion these Americanized communists find is to accept the most parliamentarian, social democratic, and vulgar nationalist drivel as the proper way forward to appeal to the American people (e.g. the ACP). Such a conclusion is an insult to the American people and the narrow path to Socialism. The truth is that Communism has not worked to arise ANY amount of popular support among the American people for the last 108 years since the idea came upon the shores in 1917, that should be enough to definitively say the American people simply do not want communism.
This is all not to say that the vast majority of Americans are somehow uniquely reactionary, as some retarded Sakaists would claim, it is simply to say that Communism is not the correct path to anything resembling Socialism in the US. On the other hand there is an ideology that WAS shown to arise mass popular support, that DID provoke the American people to take coordinated action against the Capitalist regime, that DID work for decades prior to its supplanting by Marxism-Leninism among the radical left, a supplantation that directly coincides with the decline of the left in general in America. Syndicalism, particularly the Revolutionary Syndicalism espoused by the IWW, a revolutionary organization and ideology whose success in this country has never been replicated by any party since.
>>5932I think it’s pretty funny knowing that the constant patriotism in American media fails to do so little to at least encourage Americans to organize and cooperate with each other on anything. If anything, all that pandering and nationalistic wank just makes those fat freaks even angrier with their government and with each other—which isn’t even unreasonable given the country’s shitty history.
>>5933Sorry I’m not OP by the way he is
>>5932 gay and retarded bait thread

CPUSA at its peak was much bigger and more influential than the IWW ever was.
There is no communism of any nationality because the proletariat has no country, retard.
>>5936Because they overtly abandoned Marxism-Leninism during the Browder era.
>>5938Peak CPUSA membership came in 1947 when Foster was general secretary.
>>5932>there will never be an American Communismsucks because i would love to see america impoverished beyond recognition
Steinbeck Communism and FDRism is the only way for the American left.
>>5932Could the jannies stop moving any non-ML thread they don't like to dead? It doesn't make any sense, what about my post had anything to do with post-leftism? What about it even had to do with Anarchism? Multipolarists who actually ARE not leftists get to make threads that stay up but this gets moved?
Didn't we just have a poll saying mods should be less overbearing.
>>5932>since the idea came upon the shores in 1917Americans were aware of Communism before 1917.
>>5942Idiot.
