Proletarians
of all countries, unite!
A statement of the situation of the Maoists in the USA
Since February/March this year, the comrades in the United States who
struggle for the reconstitution of the Communist Party in their country are
facing a complicated internal situation resulting from an attempt to liquidate
the Committee to Reconstitute the Communist Party of the USA (CRCPUSA) – the
ongoing initiative to unify all the communist in the task of reconstituting the
communist Party of the United States under Maoism. The liquidationists are
launching a vicious internet campaign in which they go so far as snitching,
diffusing internal information about the revolutionary organizations, and, in
the most repulsive cases, publicizing names and photos of alleged leading
members. This helps the reaction in striking blows against the revolutionary
and communist movement. It is collaboration with and legitimization of the
enemy apparatuses, and does not, in any way, help to build a communist party,
nor does it constitute a method of revolutionaries and communists for
developing the struggle.
Chairman Mao always insisted on the necessity to correctly draw the line
between Yenan and Sian, that is between revolution and counter-revolution. He
also advocated to “clearly differentiating the errors that take place at the
practical work (problems of application) from the errors of principle (problems
with the conception), separating Marxism from revisionism”. The attempt to
liquidate the CRCPUSA confuses Yenan and Sian, and the mistakes on principles
with those made within the practical work, and, in doing so, it harms the
effort for the reconstitution of the Communist Party in the United States.
Accusing people of being revisionist requires a serious critic of its
ideological, political and organizational line. It can only be made by
conducting a persistent and protracted two-line-struggle, and this is always
carried out with the aim of unifying the Party and not destroying the Party. We
call on all the honest comrades in the United States – which we believe
constitute the overwhelming majority of those that had taken part in the process
of reconstitution- who wish to serve the struggle for the reconstitution of the
Communist Party of the USA to follow “Practice marxism, not revisionism; work
towards unity, not for splitting; act in honest and honored way and don’t
thread intrigues nor machinations”. A principled two-line-struggle through the
correct internal channels must be conducted with the aim of firmly unifying on
the basis of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, the struggle against imperialism,
revisionism, and the reaction, and to serve the development of revolution in
the US as part of and in service of the world proletarian revolution. We call
all the comrades that have criticism toward other comrades to dispose all
post-modernist criteria in the struggle, to reject individualism and personal
disputes. All criticism must have a political sense. We call all comrades that
have committed mistakes to undergo serious and honest self-criticism and to
correct the mistakes in their revolutionary practice. We call on all comrades
who have been left without reliable contacts to not despair, nor open any
organizational debates and information online, nor cease their work with the
masses, we urge them to keep developing their revolutionary activities. With
the proper development of two-line-struggle, you will be able to reconnect and
participate in it through the internal channels.
Liquidating the CRCPUSA does not serve revolution and does not combat
revisionism, rather it destroys the efforts to unify the communist under the
task of reconstituting the communist Party of the United States. Calls to
“destroy the CRCPUSA” are only expression of liquidationism and is not the way
Maoists struggle to impose the correct line. On international level, the
CRCPUSA continues to be the only recognized organization that represents the
struggle for the reconstitution of the Communist Party in the United States,
and we urge all comrades to develop internal two-line-struggle, to apply
unity-struggle-unity, and to firmly reject all snitching and police work.
The international communist movement fully supports the struggle of the
comrades in the United States and will support the two-line-struggle to rectify
mistakes and to achieve a higher unity in the path of unifying under Maoism;
and reconstituting the communist Party of US.
