William Z. Foster also spat in Khruschev’s face on his death bed.

Khruschev never attended his funeral in Moscow after that.

    Foster didn’t fail and Browder’s calumny was turned around.

    The Panthers’ efforts didn’t fall short.

          No, the CPUSA have had their chance. It’s time for new blood to try.

              Yes but it doesn’t lead the party, it follows the old, incompetent, traitors.

        This has nothing to do with success or failure.

          I didn’t hear any criticisms from you, this implies success…so where is it?

            The New Deal, many social safety nets, and intervention in World War II on the side of the Soviet Union.

              Yeah they did a great job securing capitalism with social reforms, I’ll give them that. (Checks) yep, these chains are pretty tight. Good on them.

              EDIT: Actually, that is giving them too much credit. The chains are now loose, they couldn’t even do that right.

                They did not. It developed the struggle to a new level.

                  Everything you just named were social reforms. The level it brought us to was the 1960s and 70s. Hippies and Maoist adventurists. Nonsense running amuck. And for what? Look at today. Neoliberalism emerged from the corpse of social democracy, eating what remained and reverting the capitalist system back to the 1800s imperial era. This is the failure of the CPUSA first and foremost as if it were not for them, such clowns as the New Left never would have generated a crowd. They would have stayed with the hypothetical competent CPUSA.

                    Social reforms which were won with blood, sweat, and tears. Neoliberalism emerged from the 1950s Red Scare.

                    A Communist Party is supposed to fight for certain victories on the road to revolution; this is what they did.
