The right wing is furious that we are fighting to build the Revolutionary Communist Party.
That is because they fear the power of the working class. They know that the anger in this country is slipping out of their control.
We welcome their hatred, & we are not afraid of them.
The Revolutionary Communists of America are forming a party! After the launch rally, we hit the street in downtown Brooklyn to say it loud & clear: the communists are here!
#Communism
While AOC was at the met gala or w/e, our student group, Temple Marxists, held it's second public meeting on campus to seriously discuss revolution w/ the youth. Great turn out!
Good morning comrades!
We have about a dozen people at our
#IMU22
watch party at Temple University in Philadelphia!
Fantastic discussions so far, workers of the world unite!
Tell us you’ve never talked to a working class person without telling us you’ve never talked to a working class person.
We agitate among the working class every day. We are growing rapidly & massively. The workers want revolution, & they want communism!
Bestie, please stop tweeting about AOC's dress and just come to a branch meeting already so we can seriously prepare for the seizure of power by the working class. Thx
On May 1st, 2024, 250 people marched and rallied in Center City Philadelphia to mark International Workers’ Day!
Organized by the Revolutionary Communists of America (
@communistsus
) , this was the largest explicitly communist protest Philadelphia has seen in many years.
BREAKING: Penn issued its first warning to protesters of legal and policy violations and called on the College Green encampment to disband "immediately" — the first indication the University is considering action against the pro-Palestinian demonstration.

First day of TempleFest and we've made just over 175 student contacts interested in our student organization while also completely selling out of our paper! 🔥🔥🔥
#Marxism
The RCA is embarking on the biggest communist recruitment drive since WW2.
We will found a party unlike any seen in US history, & together we will end capitalism within our lifetimes.
Now is the time to get organized! If you’re a revolutionary communist, this is your party!
Philly comrades were out for
#Pride2022
. New banners and signs looking good! We spent the whole day signing ppl up to have follow up conversations with us about helping to build the revolutionary forces of Marxism!
Sorry Jordan, facts don't care about your feelings! It's capitalism that kills tens of millions every year, not communism. Life under capitalism has pushed millions of Americans to embrace revolutionary ideas. We are the historic product of capitalism, and we're growing stronger!
Labor Theory of Value aka "why employers are complaining about no one wanting to work instead of just automating all the jobs away".
Workers produce surplus value through their exploitation. Robots don't.
FB and it's other services are down. They operate a huge federated authentication system + tons of apps constantly poll FB. When it's down they keep trying. This can bog down large scale DNS providers.
Maybe private corporations shouldn't hold the keys to the internet?
Thread on Israel/Palestine
let me just say as a person of Jewish descent and w/ family from Israel, I denounce Zionism, the Israeli state and the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. Now, let me say it again as a worker and a Marxist...
"The truth is the first casualty of war"
Last Thursday, the Philadelphia branches of
@usimt
stood in solidarity with
@SBWorkersUnited
on the picket lines at Broad & Spring Garden and 22nd & South St.
We’re proud to fight alongside this inspiring new generation of labor militants!
The videos coming out of Kabul, Afghanistan are distressing and heartbreaking. Awful stuff.
You will never convince me capitalism can be fixed. The only way out of this hell is revolution.
Unfortunately, this is one we don't have to explain because workers already understand why this is laughable. They live the reality of it every day under capitalism. A bad meme doesn't change that.
Sweden, Denmark and Austria. They all look the same.
Who is really behind this? Have you seen it in your country?
Is Communism suddenly out of the blue booming? We don’t see it in any opinion polls anywhere but there is a lot of stickers in diffferent Europe major cities.
Derek was found guilty for the murder of George Floyd, and you can argue that's justice if you like. But justice for one is not justice for all just because an injury to one IS an injury to all.
Capitalism is guilty on all charges!
#DerekChauvinTrial
#GeorgeFloydTrial
The 2021 IPCC report makes it clear we're running out of time. Under these conditions of never-ending capitalist crises, global revolution is inevitable.
But that doesn't mean socialism is guaranteed. Barbarism is the alternative.
Time to take revolution more seriously. DM us.
All 4 of our local branches just wrapped up a very successful Philly-wide combined Aggregate meeting! We discussed Marxism vs Intersectionality, our plans for building the forces of Marxism, the revolutionary press, & our work at Temple & Drexel.
Aaron Bushnell, ¡presenté!
We all honor his memory. Let’s build the fighting revolutionary party that is needed to destroy US imperialism & end these atrocities forever.
Intifada Until Victory!
Build The Revolutionary Communist Party!
Our disgraceful genocide-loving Senator, who last week was tweeting conspiracy theories about George Soros-funded “outside agitators” (the stuff of real antisemitism) sees fit to echo the far-right of an institution with a 15% approval rating in slandering the encampment movement
This reactionary clown is all hat, no brain.
But we do appreciate the signal boost!
And we’re happy to make enemies out of such people.
These capitalist parasites are afraid of the fact that the forces of communism are organizing. Let’s give them something to fear.

Thanks for the shout out Ryan! If anyone would like to talk more about the need for an independent party for the working class please let us know. Always happy to setup 1-on-1's to discuss ideas more in depth.
Great piece by
@usimt
on the importance of building a mass socialist party:
“The creation of a mass working-class party remains the most pressing task for American workers—one that will make or break the prospects for winning socialism in our lifetime.”
So we're hosting an event on Temple University's campus is North Philly, on 11/3 @ 6pm. It's being co-sponsored by our student groups, Temple Marxists and Drexel Marxists. Come out to show your support for our city's 5k SEPTA workers whose contracts expire this weekend!
The CEO at my day job joked at a meeting today that he hopes one of our older employees catches covid and dies so he doesn't have to pay when he fires him as part of more layoffs... and almost everyone in the room laughed.
Same guy who call himself a good christian. 1/2
We had an amazing reception at Clark Park today!
We talked to dozens of people who were interested in socialism, including West Philly community members, union members, & students. Copies of Socialist Revolution were flying off of our shelf!
#MayDayIMT
#WorkersOfTheWorldUnite
Not even 2 months in and Biden has broken nearly every promise. In the most important ways he/Dems are fundamentally the same as Trump/GOP. Meanwhile, what has "the squad" accomplished?
We need our own party w/ working class leadership and politics!
The CEO at my day job just said in a meeting that he appreciates all the hard work we did for tax season. He tried to step in and help w/ the work but couldn't figure it out...
So in other words. He runs things but has no idea how things run.
Oh yeah, then he announced layoffs.
We had a fantastic first day of our National Congress in Philadelphia! Well over 200 attendees from 30+ cities across the country discussed perspectives for revolution in the US and around the world! Comrades are looking forward to tomorrow's sessions ✊🚩
The only just war is the almighty class war that’s coming against the likes of John Fetterman & his right wing capitalist friends in both parties.
On that note, come to May Day in Philadelphia!
5/1, 6pm, City Hall ✊✊✊
Our politics diverge on many issues, but intersect on this.
This is a just war against Hamas—terrorists who designed and instigated the 10/7 massacre.
The ICC shreds what credibility it has if it prosecutes Israel but ignores Hamas.
IDK who needs to hear this, but if you've been waiting for the right moment to start seriously preparing for revolution, now is that moment. Hmu.
Revolution occurs when the masses have no other way out. Climate crisis, Covid-19, economic collapse; these are the conditions.
New York comrades are hitting the streets to spread the ideas of Socialist Revolution!
They're tabling regularly with Marxist literature and socialist magazines in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens—at Washington Square, Union Square, Prospect Park, Fort Greene Park, and Astoria 🚩
The IMT will be marching in
#Philadelphia
tomorrow to show our support for the ~6,000 workers trying to
#UnionizeAmazon
in Bessemer, Alabama. These marches are happening across the country. You can find out more here:
Hope to see you there comrades!
If you retweet this account making racist or sexist comments, especially in regards to our irl activities, you're getting blocked.
Can't believe I need to say this.
Remember that time Marxists controlled city council of Liverpool and built affordable housing so nice ppl wanted to live there and they did it w/o laying off a single person - then after 3yrs they were expelled from above and replaced w/ stooges?
Yea, socialism never works /s
Do you want to organize for an all-out class war against the landlords & bosses violently evicting working class people in Philadelphia? Join the communists!
Tenants in Philadelphia once again face the prospect of being forced from their homes after a month-long eviction moratorium ended on August 21. Join the communists today to fight the bosses and landlords!

#housingcrisis
Hi comrades. Just wanted to say that socialist revolution is not a simple as getting a few million workers to buy guns and garden.
Try getting involved w/ a serious revolutionary political organization that operates on a genuine program for socialist revolution (like us).
#Communism
is rising in the South! Our
#Atlanta
comrades are leading the charge, doubling their ranks since the
#AreYouACommunist
campaign began. Let the ruling class tremble - the South is organizing, and the winds of change are blowing!

A significant layer of workers and youth are reaching out to grasp the banner of communism. We must turn decisively outwards to meet them by building a Revolutionary Communist International. Read now: Time to Launch a Revolutionary Communist International!
4 day work weeks, but less wages for workers to account for this seems to be one reform some capitalists are flirting w/.
What the bourgeoisie gives w/ one hand they really do take w/ the other.
If your political take is that fascism is upon us and ppl = sheep who will fall for it, then you REALLY need to stop w/e you're doing, lol.
Such pessimism is rooted in garbage bourgeois ideology and a lack of faith in the working class to carry out revolution and run society.
We interviewed Chris Smalls, former Amazon employee who was fired after trying to strike at an Amazon facility in Staten Island over health concerns. Amazon fired him, then used him as a scapegoat to tarnish organizing efforts nationwide.
#AmazonUnions
BREAKING: 3,700 student-workers at UPenn have joined the
@UAW
.
An overwhelming 95% of voting workers chose to unionize.
This is the latest in a string of blowout victories in academic union votes.
El Salvador comrades had months of wages stolen from them! Now they're trying to nationalize their workplace and could use our international support
As individuals, we can start by spreading this tag in solidarity.
#SolidaridadObrerasFlorenzi
The NYC Marxist School starts tomorrow! It will feature talks on the history & strategy of our movement for communists organizing for revolution today. As Lenin said, without revolutionary theory there can be no revolutionary movement!
Register now:
And not a single Marxist was surprised. He will walk back just about everything and in doing so prove that he, and the democratic party, and fundamentally the same as Trump and the GOP in the most important ways.
The paper serves many purposes, but key among them is delivery of working class perspectives of events and an analysis, when few to no other media outlets will. We strive to lay bare the political bankruptcy of the capitalists w/ every article and counterpose our own ideas.
#AreYouACommunist
? Over 20% of the youth believes
#communism
is the ideal economic system. With over 50 sign ups at Temple Fest last week in PA, the need for a mass revolutionary organization is clear: what are you doing to help?
Get Organized Now! ✊
You know what goes great w/ organized labor? Certainly not a Coors Light! 🤢
#ScabbyBeer
In solidarity w/ union workers in Canada, battling Molson Coors, here's a list of beers to not drink - because nothings pairs quite like a picket line and a boycott.
Marx wrote for workers, not the elite. Even illiterate peasants were discussing these ideas! All things have a degree of difficulty to them at the start, but this does not make them difficult.
Anyone can learn Marxism and everyone should - we're also happy to study w/ you!
"Tax the rich"... why? Tax money goes to defense contractors anyway. More tax money alone or even breaks for workers won't solve hunger, climate crisis, racism, poverty, etc.
Expropriate the rich, nationalize the commanding heights of the economy. Put it under workers control!
You cannot change the class nature of the Democratic party. Sanders and AOC are just two examples of what becomes of your politics when you work w/ the bourgeoise.
We need an Independent party for the working class! Not a 3rd choice, but a 1st choice - for the workers!
Something is deeply wrong with the world when this is a news headline. The youth and students shouldn't have to deal with this! The only way out of this mess (capitalism in senile decline) is socialist revolution!
A comrade said this to me tonight:
"People with nothing but rocks have fought tanks, and yet still no amount of state oppression has overcome the forces of history".
Next time someone is worried about AI police drones or something, remind them of this fact.
Happy May Day!
Some of our comrades will be selling Socialist Revolution Magazine at noon in Clark Park today! Stop by, say hi, & talk with us about how you can join the fight for socialism in our lifetime!
Workers of the world unite!
At the Philly rally against Amazon's union busting & racism! Our comrades showed their support with the historic union drive of Amazon workers in Bessemer, Alabama. Solidarity!
I'd just like to hop on this failed state discourse to say that the state has not failed - it's doing exactly what it's designed to do: protect the interests of the capitalists.
This is why we need a revolution. To establish a new state that protects the worker's interests.
We're proud to announce that Fightback has reached 600 members across Quebec and Canada! This is just the beginning. We are determined to put an end to the exploitation of people and nature, and to oppression in all its forms. Join us!
