Can anyone give me the lowdown on these folks? I like that they're a Marxist-Leninist org, in theory.

What's their vibe, what's the leadership like, local chapters etc.

They don’t view themselves as a vanguard party, nor do they feel there is one in the USA yet. Their approach is focused on being the “headlights for the masses” by focusing on using the Mass Line within working class and national liberation movements or mass orgs, taking their needs and using Marxist-Leninism to address the immediate needs and tie it to the larger strategic goals of uniting the working class and national liberation movements towards revolution.

They focus on identifying the “advanced” within the masses who are the masses chosen leaders within unions, labor movements, and national liberation movements to help implement the above to reach the “intermediate” (vast majority of these movements) while protecting against the backwards, reactionary, or opportunists who move these movements away from liberators and revolutionary potential.

Recruit those among the advanced into Cadre and empower them with the tools of Marxism-Leninism.

Making communists.

I dig it.
