    I just don’t understand why a party that’s more successful than any of those and actually upholds Lenin’s theory of global finance imperialism unlike more than half of the other US leftist orgs I can name is more “cursed” because it is Russian, shouldn’t finding success in a cursed environment be considered impressive?

    DSA and PSL practically only run candidates for the appearance of legitimacy from what I’ve seen, but that’s a whole other tangent. CPUSA’s electoral success is pretty modest since like DSA I think the accusations of democrat tailism are pretty legitimate. People were talking about Cornel West as if he’s going to do literally anything lol? Isn’t that cursed? RFK Jr. and Marianne Williamson both have deeply fucked up backgrounds.

    It’s pretty clear from the conflations you’re all drawing here that there is no distinction between actual NazBols and the KPRF in your mind. Why would anyone want nationalist socialists to win? If your accusations against them hold water, you shouldn’t want them to find any success and poison the idea of communism more.

    I’m just struggling to understand the contradictory points of view you espouse.

      You’re making a lot of assumptions about my views based on a small critical statement. And I have said I agree with and carry similar critiques of DSA and PSL.

        I just wouldn’t ever support nationalist parties I have a communist understanding of nationalism. I don’t go around like rooting for or opposing Ba’ath party within Syria itself I rather hope to resolve the international siege so a better political situation may emerge with the pressure lifted.
