The Party of Communists USA (PCUSA)[a] is a social-chauvinist and "patriotic socialist" political party in the United States.[1][2] The party is premised on reactionary stances, such as supporting Russian and Chinese imperialism,[3] sympathizing with and praising neo-fascist figures,[4] denying the genocidal origins of the United States,[2] and allying with social-imperialist entities such as the World Anti-Imperialist Platform, and sympathizing with Zionism.[5] Despite claiming to be "anti-revisionist", the party supports revisionist states such as the post-Stalin Soviet Union, China, and North Korea.[6]
In late 2022, an anti-revisionist splinter organization emerged from PCUSA, the American Council of Bolsheviks, which publicly denounced PCUSA in multiple regards, including despotic leadership, lack of democratic centralism, and harboring of abusers and sex offenders.[7] In May 2023, PCUSA resorted to employing the bourgeois legal system to sue the ACB through one of their front organizations, contributing to the splinter organization's collapse by the beginning of 2024. Following this, the organization has devolved into a front organization for the "patriotic socialist" movement, with the party being revealed to have extensive connections with organizations such as the Center for Political Innovation, a LaRoucheist cult led by Caleb Maupin.[8] In July 2024, members and chapters of PCUSA co-founded the neo-fascist front organization "American Communist Party," alongside "MAGA Communists" Haz al-Din and Jackson Hinkle.[9]
