Communists of America

The widespread sympathy for Luigi Mangione has starkly revealed the enormous amount of working-class anger that has built up in American society. But one thing is necessary to ensure the victory of our struggle: the urgent building of a revolutionary party, armed with the ideas of Marxism. ✊ Join the fight against capitalism: https://communistusa.org/join

This week we republish an episode from our international podcast: Against the Stream: Trump’s dramatic return to the White House has thrown the liberals into complete panic and confusion. They have flung whatever insults they can at him: from semi-fascist, to fascist, to neo-fascist. To explain how Marxists should understand and approach these phenomena, Alan Woods, the leading theoretician of the Revolutionary Communist International, joined Hamid Alizadeh for another episode of Against the Stream, the weekly current affairs podcast of the RCI. This episode premiered on YouTube. Tune in every Thursday at 6pm GMT.

Despite the decline of organized religion in recent years, there has also been a concurrent rise in mysticism and “New Age” beliefs. How should communists approach this belief with people that we encounter in our work? Erika Roedl and Laura Brown discuss.

The liberal world order that has been in charge for decades has been put in the back seat by Donald Trump. His rule is accelerating the decline of capitalism and communists must organize for the crises to come and prepare for revolution.

The liberals are incapable of stopping Trump, neither party can halt the crisis of capitalism, and both are representatives of the billionaire imperialists. So how do we beat them both? ✊ Join the fight against capitalism: https://communistusa.org/join

The ferocious blaze that terrorized America’s second largest city is a product of the capitalist system in terminal decline. Private ownership and production for profit put the interests of a tiny capitalist cabal ahead of the interests of humanity as a whole.

Donald Trump is back in the White House promising to end the decline of America. His promises will fall flat, spelling further decline for the U.S. and further discontent of the working class.

Welcome to 2025. The world is on fire, war rages in the middle east and Ukraine, and there is increasing instability in the social fabric of the United States. There is a desperate need for a mass communist party, and there has never been a more favorable time to build one.

Republished from the podcast of the RCI "Against the Stream" — With just two weeks before Trump re-enters the White House, the outgoing Democrats are doing everything they can to undermine the next president. In Ukraine in particular, where they fear a drastic change of course in the policy of US imperialism, they are funneling in as much money as they can get away with, as well as escalating the war by allowing Ukraine to strike deep into Russia with US bombs. This clash at the top of the worlds strongest imperialist power has huge consequences for the whole planet. To break it down from a Marxist perspective, as well as to discuss the turbulent political, economic and military situation on all continents, Alan Woods joins Against the Stream for a special episode.

Huge numbers of the population feel sympathy for the action for which Luigi Mangione has been charged. The mass sympathy elicited by this act speaks volumes about the political vacuum in the US. The class-war methods we advocate for are mass action that harnesses the strength of the united working class, rather than individual targeted actions such as the assassination of CEOS.
