  1. Never mind the #DSA: After several decades off the ballot, the Communist Party USA is once again actively running candidates for office. Six candidates ran in 2025, mostly for school boards and city councils. Four of them won. Looks like there may be a handful more in 2026.Their last presidential campaign was #GusHall and #AngelaDavis in 1984. 2028? #CPUSA #Communism #Socialsm #Politcs #USPol peoplesworld.org/article/commu

  3. Did you know the Communist Party/USA is alive and well and organizing in Ithaca NY? More photos from Ithaca' Juneteenth celebration are on the way!

    (Did you know I shook hands with Gus Hall 30 years ago?)

    "Fundamentally, nothing will change", Biden telling his billionaire campaign investors.

    This has been the face of the Democrat part for 30+ years.

    Even Obama's magnum opus, ACA (Obamacare) was a Heritage Foundations counter-proposal to Hillary's single payer system. And we all saw how fast "SOSHULLIZM" howls were.

    You want to see leftist politics? #DSA and #CPUSA.

  7. RE: piefed.social/c/historyphotos/

    According to my father, who grew up in LA in the 30s and 40s, this picture was taken near the corner of 3rd and Spring in downtown Los Angeles. Eagleson's Big and Tall was at that corner. In the background is the 3rd street tunnel so the woman is walking east on third street.

    Also according to my father, in the 40s in left-wing circles "immigrants" in this context meant Japanese, both native-born and immigrants, because the word "Japanese" was never said out loud except by racists/nativists. His parents were CPUSA in LA at this time, so he heard them talking about it a lot.

  11. The racially mixed , smartly dressed browsers of progressive books in this 1938 photograph seem to be living out the CPUSA slogan of that time, "Communism is Twentieth Century Americanism"; note the "Harvard Communist" in the lower right hand quarter of the picture, the nearby collection box for aid for Spain, and the photograph of volunteers who were fighting for the Spanish Republican cause.

    The following year's cynically concluded Hitler-Stalin pact and the anticommunism of the postwar decades dealt the US left blows from which it has never fully recovered.

    I wonder about the various fates of the individuals pictured here.

  13. #Protest in #FortWorth #dfw today, #NoKings. According to organizers the #FBI closed airspace around the event, which might explain why the helicopter was hanging pretty far back. There *was* a quadcopter hanging out closer to the event though. Probably had about a thousand people milling around, give or take a couple hundred.

    Saw reps from #CPUSA, #RCA, and #PSL #PartyForSocialismAndLiberation too, as well as #AFLCIO. #socialism #communism #marxism.

  15. The Western Pennsylvania Communist Party USA stands with working classes throughout the world in celebration of May Day! Take some time today to reflect on the history of this international holiday and how that history impacts the daily lives of workers throughout the U.S.!

  16. Capitalism uses "freedom" to refer to the "freedom" of billionaires to exploit others by forcing the proletariant to work 40hr per week, spend less time with family, love ones, just live paycheck to paycheck in order to avoid being homeless

  17. when communists TIRFs like me say "abolish sex work" we mean Nordic model first then,eliminating poverty, & dismantling the capitalist conditions that economically coerce & incentivize people to sell their bodies followed by full decriminalization. calling us "swerfs" for that is so beyond stupid.

  18. The majority of people will never "earn" a billion dollars.
    No firefighter,scientists,lawyers
    ,teachers,doctors&engineers will ever make that kind of money.
    99% of the population works all their waking hours to cover for food,shelter,medicine,etc&still live in poverty.Socialism is only the solution.

  19. Neoliberalism is the moderate wing of fascism. You can’t get people on board with neoliberalism and then expect them to get closer to Communism/Socialism. It’s simply a few concessions from the bourgeoise.

  20. Communism has proven itself to be a great liberator of peoples across the world, and earned a place at the altar of history. Unfortunately, Communism has been demonised and twisted again and again and again, primarily by the U.S/West.

  22. In the DPRK and other socialist countries, people are guaranteed

    -home

    -food

    -healthcare

    -education

    ………for free.

    In U.S and other Capitalism Countries people are not guaranteed these things, we still have to sell our labour and if you're unlucky, well, you’ll end up homeless.

  23. A system of government controlled by a small group of rich elites who use their power to amass more wealth to the detriment of the proletariat.

    We are overdue for a socialist revolution(hopefully when it comes it won't be a violent one)

  27. A real nice history the "Communist" Party USA has:

    "the likely victim of an assassination squad, possibly because she had been associating with Trotskyists."

  29. Vorrei farmi la tessera del Partito Comunista degli Stati Uniti.

    Perché non ho capito perché io debba avere letteralmente le basi americane sulla mia terra natia, ed io non possa cagare il cazzo al "poliziotto del mondo" tesserandomi al suo acerrimo oppositore interno.

  31. Isserman is an excellent historian. I'm looking forward to reading "Reds".

    I spent years studying American communism. Here’s what I learned | Maurice Isserman | The Guardian

  32. "[A] famous movie, Exodus .. tells the story essentially as a US western, and so basically makes #Israel into a Gary Cooper film, where they're out in the desert taking on the indigenous people heroically.."

  35. Earl Browder (1891-1973) was general secretary of the CPUSA (Communist Party of the USA) from 1930 until 1945.

    "The man from Kansas" was a dedicated labor and political activist and the creator of an innovative political strategy for the US left. He was also a spy for the Soviet Union.

    He appeals to me as a complex, problematic, and possibly tragic figure in a way that William Foster simply does not.

    The International Department of CPUSA wants to express our strong solidarity with the Cuban people, the Communist Party of #Cuba and with the staff of the Cuban Embassy in Washington DC.
    We echo our Party leaderships' condemnations of the terror attack on Cuba's Emb."
