The US section of the International Marxist Tendency held its largest-ever National Congress on the weekend of October 9 and 10. As the morning sun lit up the bright fall-colored foliage around the Pittsburgh Congress venue, 170 delegates and comrades filed into the meeting hall to take their seats........... ..With comrades in attendance from over 50 cities and 29 states, the event provided a glimpse of the truly national scope of the organization, which has begun to sink roots in every corner of the country.....Ultimately, the historical impasse of the capitalist system—and of American capitalism in particular—is the driving force behind the rise of revolutionary ideas among the young generation. The crises and contradictions of our time stem from the fact that this system should have been overthrown over a century ago. Profit-driven production for the market and the constraints of the nation state have long outgrown their ability to take humanity as a whole forward. This is clearly demonstrated by the climate catastrophe, and the capitalist class’s impotence when dealing with the urgent and dramatic measures demanded by the situation.

During Chávez’s (a Marxist) presidency, however, mismanagement contributed to significant declines in oil production and profits..... At the same time, it continued to expand social programs and borrowed heavily. Between 2014 and 2019 GDP declined by some 75 percent. Authoritarian practices begun by Chávez and intensified by his successor, Nicolás Maduro, worsened the problem by prompting economic sanctions from the United States and other Western democracies. Deep shortages of food and medicine resulted, leading to a humanitarian crisis in Venezuela.
This is what happens to ALL Communist countries. Let the ridicule begin.
"International Marxist Tendency"? Reminds me of a reference to another group of serial mass murderers, from a James Blish novel:
"IMT made the sky fall!"
Communism and all it’s forms should be outlawed. If by any chance real patriotic Americans get back in charge, that should be job 1.
We need to vote out all the Marxists in Government. AOC and “the Squad” is specifically mentioned as good Marxists. Supporting opponents in their elections is a good start. Oh, and AOC and “the Squad” are the only ones Marxist enough for the Communists. Give that some thought.
What ridicule? That’s exactly the problem: there isn’t enough ridicule directed towards those who are soft on communism or communist sympathizers.
What ridicule?
Not from FR.
It was bone-chilling to see Pelosi tear up Trump’s State of the Union speech where he rejected the take over by Socialism of the USA. The country should have recognized immediately that Nancy is a Marxist to the core and still is.

“Communism and all it’s forms should be outlawed.”
From 45 COMMUNIST GOALS AS READ INTO THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD, 1963
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture–education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
Two observations:
1. They were all masked!
2. The global warming is their greatest worry!
Absolutely Correct !!!
Ridicule is from the CNN brainwashed masses who don’t think communists are anything but boogy men invented by Joe McCarthy.(who was right by the way)I had a person ask me what is a communist? They were in their mid 40s.
