Joe Simps for the D : CPUSA co-chair Sims: Fighting fascist threat a top priority Peoples world Article
Excerpts:
CHICAGO – “The battle lines are clear. We’re fighting a fascist danger at home and a genocidal war abroad. And to defeat the danger at home, we’ve got to defeat the war abroad.” CPUSA co-chair Joe Sims gave this warning on June 7, as he keynoted the 32nd National Convention of the Communist Party USA.
Sims also spoke of the “raw racism at the very heart of MAGA,” and added, “Immigrants are a special target.
“First, they tried the wall,” Sims said of Trump’s scheme to keep migrants from entering the U.S. across the Mexican border. “Then the Muslim ban, now they’re planning concentration camps. That’s right, we said it. And if they come for immigrants in the morning, they’re damn sure coming for us at noon.
But we’re not at fascism yet, of course, Sims said. And that moment of respite – for however long it lasts – means that for now, “There is room for struggle. Let us use that space to fight for a ceasefire in Gaza and for an end to the war in Ukraine. Let us use it to stop the expansion of NATO, end the blockade of Cuba, and bring the Cold War against China to a close.
He then turned to the historic question the Communist movement has always asked, “What, then, is to be done?”
you are not him
As Sims spoke to wild peals of applause, he said, “On the one side, there’s the ruling class forces of white supremacy and MAGA pulling the country apart. On the other, there’s the working-class forces of democracy pulling the country together.”

SSettler KKKolonial Unity : The Communist Party of Israel greets CPUSA’s 32nd Convention twitter
In which the CPI blames Hamas for the Gaza war, denounces the Operation Al-Aqsa Flood (i guess palestinians just have to get used to dying) and washes the hands of the israeli state by claiming that its netanyahoo the problem and not the State of ISSael itself
how do you manage to be on the Right of the DSA??
You say you want to help people understand CPUSA but the way you answer questions is incredibly counterproductive. Why not elaborate in any way?
I was elaborating.
You’re giving 1-2 sentence replies that half the time don’t answer the question. I would hope someone trying to represent their party here could be more elaborate, especially in what should be the friendliest possible environment (a bunch of fellow communists).
I have answered the questions. The problem is that people aren’t really engaging with me or provide anything to really counter, just opinion, no evidence, I feel.
Also, communists are known for their sectarianism and in-fighting and I myself think “left unity” is pretty much a dead meme anyway.
One word is not an answer in these kinds of discussions - if you say the party doesn’t support that stance, say what the party’s stance actually is.
But I’m not using one word though.
You didn’t ask for the party’s stance and the party’s stance is obvious.

This is ableist and offensive.
I am explaining my answers but you’re not giving me much to go on, barely any hyperlinks or anything to debunk, besides what you can do through a quick search of cpusa.org or even a Google search. And it seems you didn’t watch any of the speeches too.
“so you’re just coming across as a troll.”
That’s on you.
You can call it ableist, but either you, like me, are autistic, and don’t, like I didn’t, understand why people are frustrated by your answers, or you are being a troll like I am when I give unhelpful answers now.
You are being presented with statements, based on people’s interpretations of the OP link, that you are negating without informing. You’re here claiming the CPUSA doesn’t hold the stance that users have concluded they hold from their statements, but are not stating what the actual stance is, instead claiming it should be obvious, or we can just go on the website, but we’re responding to statements from the party. Like literal things the party leader said with his mouth.
You can choose to clarify by clearly stating what the stance is or that the party doesn’t have one at all, but “every branch has its own stance” isn’t informative about the party stance. You came in to correct what you claim is a misinterpretation, but it’s taking people repeated questioning just to get information on what the correction actually is. If you want to provide a correction, make sure you actually provide the corrected information, don’t just tell people they can go find it themselves. Looking for it themselves is what got them the incorrect interpretation in the first place.
My guy if this is some kind of troll this is genius. If not, why shouldn’t we vote for RFK instead? I think a brainworm better represents my interests than Biden.
Vote PSL or Green party. RFK is a right-winger.
Different party where I’m at but I plan to. Brainworm truly is the best main-stream option.
Also, Green? They’re libs lol
Green is better than RFK.
RFK has evangelicals that man his campaign and the stuff he says can be bonkers as well as his policies.
