The collapse of the American empire would benefit almost every other country. I am starting to feel that since I live in America I should want to accelerate the collapse (or make sure one happens if things start to go back to business as usual). Can someone tell me why this is a bad idea so that I don’t make a mistake here.

      Then we are in agreement. I want the very western tendency of splitting and infighting to be done away with, and for us to form a cohesive vanguard. I’m not suggesting that conditions are perfect and that revolution can happen tomorrow, I’m stating that if you zoom out you can clearly see that the working class is increasingly aware of its enemies. What we need to be doing is making sure that in all working class organizations we form, we thoroughly purge patsocs and MAGA communists, and force a disciplined and pro-national liberation stance for colonized peoples.

      I’m not saying that our task is easy, but I don’t think it’s impossible either. It’s difficult, but that’s the historic duty of the Statesian communist, to end this miserable country and replace it with a colonized-led socialist state. It isn’t to spark a civil war and hope for the best that another reactionary government takes hold of the US millitary and nuclear stockpiles.

          There’s no vanguard at the moment, but that doesn’t mean we can’t form one, nor that we should not. Communists are not being driven underground, we should combine legal with illegal work as has historically been successful.
