There have been multiple uprisings in the West, meanwhile, such as the George Floyd uprisings and the ensuing labor revolts too.
The West is the belly of the beast. So of course, there wouldn’t readily be an AES state.
Only 5 are in the non-West.
That was a victory. Many representatives of the working class were ushered into the new government after May 1968. That’s why they had to combat the gains during the 1970s and 1980s.
There are only 5 AES nations in the world today.
The New Deal made it easier to unionize. It was used by Black as well as white people. BIPOC folk in general got jobs and benefits from the New Deal. This is indisputable.
William Z. Foster joined the CPUSA. The two fledgling parties also played a role.
A Communist Party exists to bring about a democratic revolution and then a socialist revolution.
We’re not continuing capitalism; the capitalists are.
The New Deal, the presence of labor unions, and Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid, including the civil rights revolution of the 1960s/70s.
Neither was the IWW a “failure.”
Or the CPUSA during its heyday.
Or the anti-war peace movement for Vietnam.
Or NAARPR and NAIMSAL
What do you mean by revolution? Do you simply mean a “popular uprising”?
Then technically, most parties have done that to one degree or another.
1917 general strike in America almost resulted in a revolution.
Yeah, the BPP wasn’t a failure.
In addition, most Western parties are still around despite fierce repression and propaganda. The org I was apart of lasted 105 years so far despite it all.
























Makes us all the more based.
