    They were all grifters from the beginning, I didn’t expect any reform. More alarming is the continued prominence of patsocs that pretend they’re just regular principled MLs and are held up as such (I’m looking at you Midwestern Marx).

      For real. I think Haz has been threatening to start his organization (the based and MAGA-pilled version of CPI or something) “next month” since January. So far all he’s done is print a bunch of Infrared Gorilla Gang hats and get in arguments with random Australians about white nationalism.

      But if your original strategy was “tweet and get fellow Khmer Rouge fans to infiltrate the CPUSA with the goal of taking it over next election cycle,” it’s hard to see how Plan B could be much of an improvement. (Everybody, including Maupin and Jason Unruhe (!), said this kind of lazy infiltration doesn’t work; if it did, Bernie bros would be in charge of the Democratic Party by now. But what can you do – the real, non-internet world has a way of messing with the plans of would-be materialists).
