Well, it's funny to me that we were talking about the CP USA and this guy's little cults relationship to it trying to like do a hostile takeover, I guess, of the CP USA.

That's what a lot of these people in this mill you are still trying to do and maybe even they might succeed at some point in time.

Because like they want to repeat and this sort of fetishized form of like broaderism, like communism is 21st century Americanism right and it

it's spectacle and it's like political party action and it's you know having the right program and platform being

populist enough to like collapse left and right or whatever when the real

tremendous and amazing thing that the CP USA did and obviously the greatest effect they had on American

history was that communists in the 1930s were by far the best union

organizers that existed in this country.

You know, it's, there's like a joke.

I was reading about the labor history of the 1930s again,

and there was a joke about how the communists were the best organizers

if only you could get the daily worker out of their back pocket.

They were constantly going and they were organizing new unions, radical militant unions, organizing

direct action, all sorts of

strike activity and slowdowns and shut downs and sit-downs and then of course this is tied to like the larger political

program but for a time in the 1930s that was subordinated to the actual workers movement that they had been creating.

Of course as we know like when the popular front breaks down that sort of, you know, cripples the labor movement in the United States

because all the best organizers end up getting thrown out of the unions

as communists.

But imagine if instead of fetishizing

like the Madison Square Garden

Rally with Lincoln's head next to Lennon's head,
