So if you try to go to the Party of Communists USA website, you get a relatively short document by former members accusing the part of really bad stuff like reporting members to bosses and defending pedophiles.
Said members split and formed the American Council of Bolsheviks. As the Party of Communists USA is essentially dead due to these shenanigans, is the new organization worth working with? And can anybody give any perspective about this whole controversy?
“Rojava” is funded and trained by the U.S. military and has neo-Nazis and fascists in it.
IWW are not Trots.
First I’m hearing of nazis in Rojava, do you have any sources?
The IWW aren’t explicitly Trotskyist but when you analyze their policies it’s clear.
They unite the proletariat under 1 union world wide, Trots aim to do this as well for “global continuous revolution”
They often necessitate dual unionism which effectively shoots the worker in the foot, a key aspect of trotskyist policies.
Since the Russian Revolution they have faded from relevance and now mainly focus on the US and Canada for membership…a fascination with the west to bring about revolution, another tenet of Trotskyism.
Many members I’ve met are anarchist/trotskyists (in USA they are very closely related)
This is why I describe them as Trots.
Helali himself confirmed this.
IWW are anarcho-communist, though have lots of tendencies; they are not Trots.
It doesn’t matter what you call them.
