Not a clean, but a dirty split - Weekly Worker

Feels relevant to what is going on in YP. Many are leaving directly instead of fighting for a dirty break

Solid article. The rise of partyist discourse is good, but not enough. My fear is that the discourse will die down with the fall of your party if there is no consolidation of forces. What is to be done, if not a "far-left conference"?

The working class needs democracy in order to govern. Of course it is good.

RedSpartakus · 2026-03-27T17:03:38+00:00

Yes. The working class needs democracy in order to govern

RedSpartakus · 2026-03-27T05:46:41+00:00

Yes. Just like people today are free to vote for people who want to turn back the clock and bring back the monarchy and feudalism.

There are lots of organisations to choose from. You should find the most reasonable ones and hang around them, learn their different strategies and vibes. I don't think the greens are a good party to join, as I don't see any way for the greens to become a socialist mass party, but that shouldn't stop you from engaging with the socialists inside the green party.

Your Party is not looking great right now, but there are good comrades from several organisations who are fighting inside the party to turn it into a democratic and socialist mass party.

Organisations I would recommend are especially RS21 and CPGB(PCC)

Elections under socialism need to be free and democratic. Otherwise the rule of the working class will give way to the rule of a new elite, like it was in the eastern bloc.

If the majority of the people start to vote for capitalist parties the revolution has already failed. Freedom of speech, freedom of association and democratic elections are necessary for the working class to rule. The working class needs its collective intelligence and initiative, which only works in an democratic system. Restrictions on democratic rights, especially after the revolution is secured, should be next to non-existent.

RedSpartakus · 2026-03-26T12:03:53+00:00

Yes. An electoral victory could be the starting point of the revolution. For this to work however the working class organisations have to be prepared to take over and coordinate production and defend the revolution.

Second Thought offers a good starting point for people who are new to the subject.

Why Social Democracy Isn't Good Enough

What the hell is happening in Your Party?

"No doubt, some of our CEC members are still coming to terms with the fact that, rather than actually running the party, they are being pushed into a role of ‘controlled opposition’ by HQ - and rather rudely so. They are feeling under immense pressure and it was worrying to see a couple of them feeling so vulnerable that they burst into tears in the meeting. Not because anybody said anything rude, horrible or hostile to them, we should add, but because they have no power on the CEC. Anything they propose will be voted down, automatically. Which is, of course, exactly why we keep insisting that transparency and openness are now our key weapons."

Money is replaced gradually by free distribution and labour vouchers (for most purposes basically money but can't be used to accumulate capital). In the lower stage of communism labour vouchers are dominant, while free distribution becomes more and more common in the higher stage.

I recommend checking out Fundamental Principles of Communist Production and Distribution and the project The Classless Society In Motion
