maoist3@yahoo.com for the Maoist Internationalist Movement:

I'm sorry that for a few months, I was not aware that Bob Avakian's 
party had attempted to respond to our 2001 Congress resolution on 
their program. For a few months I lagged behind in giving official 
responses to what they were saying at www.2changetheworld.info

As I have now posted quite a few messages without their response,
I think it is appropriate to review the 27 year history of the
Avakian party and the longer history including its predecessor
"RU." In no sense should we be lagging in reviewing this history.

In the 1970s, the Avakian crew took pathbreaking steps to hand out 
flyers denouncing homosexuality as a "sickness" in such militant 
language that today's whimpering born-again Christians would not use 
it. The heroic Avakian legions also had time to organize rallies to 
demonstrate to "Smash Busing." Thus, the Avakian vanguard 
demonstrated the true qualities of its class, but that's not all. 
The Avakian comrades of the 1970s refused to calculate the flow of 
surplus-value into the united $tates and do a precise analysis of 
the class structure as affected by that. In this way Bob Avakian 
protected the interests of the Great Class.

Unfortunately for the unity of the Great Class, the "Menshevik" wing 
broke away from the party of the Great Bob Avakian. By the 1980s, 
the loyal Avakian band was seen having to talk about the "labor 
aristocracy," "parasitism" and "imperialist economism." Not to 
worry, despite these twists and turns in the class struggle, 
the "RCP-USA" found time to roundly criticize that arch-enemy of the 
class, Stalin, in "Conquer the World." At this time, Bob Avakian 
brilliantly unfolded a synthesis with Leon Trotsky to better lead 
forward the Great Class. Detailed in Raymond Lotta's theories of 
accumulation in "America in Decline," that were borrowed from 
Trotsky, we learned exactly when the Great Class would rise up to 
the Heavens.

Avakian's lambasting of the overly credited Soviet people and his 
balanced treatment of the Amerikkkan people during World War II led 
to new heights in the ideology of the class to carry out an 
Avakianist Revolution. Other brilliant strategems of the Great 
Leader Avakian from the 1980s included unfolding the criticism of 
Lin Biao--precisely when there were no socialist states to have 
coups against. All this goes to show that Bob Avakian never swayed 
from representing the Great Class of the Great Nation, his class, 
the one with the Historic Atomizing Mission. So despite the twists 
and turns arising from the struggle against the Menshevik 
headquarters, Chairman Avakian never deviated from refusing the arch-
reactionary line that held: 
"Unless the economic roots of this phenomenon are understood and its 
political and social significance is appreciated, not a step can be 
taken toward the solution of the practical problems of the communist 
movement and of the impending social revolution." Such were the 
great 1980s.

In the 1990s, the "RCP-USA" continued to throw gays out from party 
activities, deepened the campaign against Lin Biao and unfolded new 
campaigns to ferret out closet Hoxhaites in parties around the world 
conducting armed struggles without waiting for the Great Class. In 
the great forbearance characteristic of all towering leaders, 
Chairman Avakian correctly recognized that the Canto Grande 
statement was part of the "two line struggle" in the party of the 
Great Class. Yes, and all this was possible, because the Great 
Leader's strategy wasted not a minute on accounting for surplus-
value flows into the united $tates or even separating the class 
structure from what various deviants from Great Class interests were 
saying. That is why we need strong leaders to unite and drive 
forward such a Great Class, because without being able to refuse 
trivial questions, and without correctly prioritizing the real needs 
of the Great Class, the revolution of the Great Class will surely 
fail.

In 2002, it is all the more clear that Chairman Avakian has put the 
needs of the Great Class first. He carefully instructed followers to 
divert attacks from other classes by asking about health care for 
the Great Class first, swimming pools for the Great Class first and 
every last TV-related appliance for the Great Class first. He taught 
the youth to have steely nerves to block out the effete voices 
saying other lesser peoples's life expectancies were lower than the 
Great Class's and needed to be prioritized. To confuse the 
treacherous enemy, Chairman Avakian mentions "reparations" now and 
then, but never in detail, so as to justify the weak in their 
complaints against the Great Class. When asked about Stalin's 
extraction of reparations from Germany, Chairman Avakian wisely 
instructed followers to roll their eyes, and say, "that guy Stalin 
again? That's wack!" When asked about super-profits, Chairman 
Avakian instructed followers to ask "what about welfare for whites?" 
He speaks of the international proletariat, in a truly great tactic 
of dividing and conquering the enemy. In the latest "RCP-USA" draft 
program, Comrade Avakian brought forward the great synthesis that 
only Blacks have the right to self-determination within U.$. borders.

The "RCP-USA" in its boundless energy in following the Great Leader 
of the Great Class, has come out saying that not having a majority 
of the Great Class justifies capitulation and it has seen to the 
Great Class's interests by informing foreign enemies that they will 
not be invading: don't let those lesser peoples even think about it, 
the wise and tested membership of the "RCP-USA" says.

When I think of the accomplishments of the last 27 years of Bob 
Avakian's party, I, maoist3@yahoo.com am deeply moved into silence. 
Unless the Great Leader instructs his followers to calculate the 
flow of surplus-value into the united $tates,
and how it affects the class structure, I will know that he has 
been loyal to the Great Class and I won't EVER question him again. 
He has proven his leadership, time and time again, for over three 
decades.
