    @NewYorkCity @Snowboy thanks for the responses

    I'm not in the states - so the ACP / MAGA Communism isn't something that's gaining traction and considered a serious party??

    its a pretty outwardly repulsive thing. if it's gained traction than its only because white supremacy is already dominant in every other "communist" party in the USA and the ACP only makes the implicit explicit.

    What is MAGA communism?

    if you want a serious answer, it's a term mainly started by people in the social/para-social circle of streamers like Haz & Jackson Hinkle who have views considered esoteric within the realm of standardized politics, who typically align with eastern bloc and non-US/EU allies politically but still champion a form of american nationalism. The term comes more specifically from Haz, who is a pretty small time streamer but is a part of the ACP, who thinks that Trump (somewhat facetiously but he's also serious) represents a challenge to the imperial & capitalist core due to his wildcard decision making and how much the establishment hates him. Haz/Jackson/etc are also - socially - more aligned to views now considered conservative in the sense they're anti-trans, against diversity initiatives, etc. and find allyship in that part of the GOP. That being said, it's an inconsistent set of half-ironic, half-unironic beliefs that really only exists on twitter. On here, it's just a joke that refers to trump doing things that would align to actions that 15 years ago the GOP would have called "socialism" in a derogatory sense while also lampooning the above.

    thoughts on the RCA in here?

    its just a rebrand of the IMT, an old and unserious trotskyist organization that can't even support palestinian national liberation or do a good job covering up the sexual assaults of their cadre members

    also if I'm bob avakian I'd have sued, they really shamelessly stole so much of their new "aesthetic" from the rcp-usa

    that can't even support palestinian national liberation

    is that their official position? several rca members i've spoken to including the head of the party branch of atlanta definitely want to see a palestinian state, even the dissolution of israel wholesale. im pretty surprised to hear that tbh

    they officially support a two-state "solution". even if they didn't I wouldn't tell people to join, the IMT is mostly a group of fogies who enjoy taking money from impressionable young people and then spitting them out when they inevitably get tired of doing pointless busywork

    as far as a communist party goes their isnt one i would encourage people to join, at least not without a serious scientific understanding of marxism. I also in general just don't believe in shilling for these parties.

    my suggestion to your friend is that at this moment the best things they could do are:

    1) take the study of marxism seriously and study it, with a focus on anti-revisionism
    2) get involved in a mass movement (palestine, housing struggles, police terrorism, etc.) and push a revolutionary line
    3) get a job in a non-union field that you believe is ripe for proletarianization and organize workers into a "red union"

    doing this would be far better for building the anti-revisionist party of the future than performing free labor for the democrats or wasting your time doing pointless charity work, your only two real options when joining a revisionist party

    that’s funny, i’ve pretty much told them the same thing, at least when it comes to serious study. just wanted to know what y’all’s thoughts on it were since i don’t really post in here. thanks though, i’ll let them know
