Is it possible for a US citizen to join a communist party?

My country sucks ass and is full of racists and people who suck at math. Everyone is borderline insane, addicted to drugs, slooting around and generally out of control. We're run by corrupt crazy people who are so self absorbed by their drama that it's a wonder anything gets done, and by anything, I mean starting wars and bombing the chit out of people...

I'm just over it. I don't really want to move anywhere, and I still like the US constitution. But I want to join a communist party. Where do they hang out? Reddit is full of fascist neoliberals and neocons. This place is full of fascists too. Where do all the normal sane left wing people hang out? Or are they all in China and Russia?

if this place is so full of deplorables, why are you so desperate to be a member?

Overton window is so far to the right in the US that such a thing does not seem likely. I'm sure one exists but there are probably <5 members.

The initiation is you have to fap to videos of people being being beaten and murdered, in front of party officials. Like members normally do.

As a man you either have to weigh under 140 pounds and smoke packs a day, or weigh over 280 pounds. Hair that's a rainbow color helps membership too. Good luck.
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!

In the US, the ultra-wealthy, corporations and their captured government officials continue their successful crusade of neoliberal politics, a right wing ideology subscribed to by both republicans and democrats.

Neoliberalism calls for limited direct government intervention in the economy, systematic deregulation and a dismantling of collective bargaining and union power. Even worse, capitalists abandon this ideology when convenient by hypocritically also crying for government subsidies to boost their profit margins and socializing losses via bailouts when their overly risky businesses fail. As a result, we have massively widening wealth inequality, concentrated market power in a few industry players, and some of the worst social health scores (education, healthcare, crime etc.) in the western world, especially when considering the cost.

We are far closer to descending into fascism (capitalists supporting one party/person rule with extreme militarism/nationalism and dedicated scapegoats) than we are anywhere near socialism (democratic control of the means of production), much less communism (no private property, equal outcomes etc.)

Oh, well that's rather convenient. For such a "far right overton window" we sure do enable a lot of moochers/have quite the welfare state in this country as well.

With that said - I do agree with some of what you're saying.

Questions:

1) Do you believe in God?

2) Do you think humanity will run out of non renewable resources?

3) Do you think a few people should control all the capital? Will that help humanity thrive?

4) Do you think a nationalist self centered approach is best for solving international problems? Will it make war more or less likely?

Because there are right answers to these questions, and those who get them wrong are not sane.

Won't you find the local members hanging around elementary schools? Stalin was a well known kiddie fiddler and Mao was into beastiality so you could try the local vets

1) Gene therapy is gene therapy.
2) No. That sounds like something ridiculous someone made up to distort an actual point being made about airflow as part of a strawman.
3) Nah. I think it was probably a pragmatic decision or even due to corrupt influence.
4) Yes.

Did I win? Also, it seems like English isn't your first language.

Are you Russian by chance? Why do you hate communism? Did Stalin kill gramps?

Your grandparents probably deserved it lol...

On March 3 we said:

“Russia’s invasion of Ukraine . . . was wrong and in violation of international law. In the words of the CPUSA’s National Board, ‘War between states is never an acceptable solution and must be rejected in the strongest terms.’

Ehhhh hard disagree.
