Bob Avakian, chairman of the Revolutionary Communist Party USA (RCPUSA), has endorsed Joe Biden for president.
Mr. Avakian, who has led the party since 1979, says he doesn’t particularly like Mr. Biden, but that electing him is necessary for “the overthrow of this system, as the fundamental solution to the continuing horrors this system causes for the masses of humanity.”
That “system” is our self-governing republic with its constitutionally-guaranteed rule of law, property rights, the freedoms of religion, speech, press and assembly, and free market economics. All of this has produced the freest, most prosperous and most generous nation in history. It’s got to go.
The street mobs of Black Lives Matter and Antifa, plus the radicalized “Progressives” around Mr. Biden want to saddle America with central state socialism that looks a lot like communism, so Mr. Avakian’s endorsement shouldn’t be that surprising.
In contrast to America’s leadership of the Free World, communism has killed more people and created more misery than any other ideology. The death toll alone from communist regimes during the 20th century is at least 100 million (“The Black Book of Communism”).
Citing other scholars including Hoover Institution’s late Robert Conquest, historian Paul Kengor says the figure should be closer to 140 million dead. The killings are not over, he notes in his new book, “The Devil and Karl Marx.” They’re still murdering dissidents in China, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela and any other places unfortunate enough to come under the commissars’ boot.
How anyone could have a benign view of communism in the face of its staggering evil is mind boggling. It rivals Holocaust denial as a form of insanity.

All of the top-tier possible Democratic vice presidential nominees have extensive ties to far-left figures like George Soros and Marxist organizations like Democratic Socialists of America and the Democracy Alliance. California Sen. Kamala Harris, for example, is on the VP short list recommended to Mr. Biden by leftist billionaire Steve Phillips, who was active at Stanford in the League for Revolutionary Struggle, a Maoist group. In a 2012 blog post, he said, “I come out of the Left. I’ve studied Marx, Mao, and Lenin.”
The 'liberal leadership' clearly has given way to Bernie Sanders and the “Squad” of Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ayanna Presley, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib. They were joined this past week by Cori Bush, a Black Lives Matter activist who unseated 10-term incumbent Democrat Missouri Rep. William Lacy Clay Jr. in a primary.
Ms. Bush, who was endorsed by Bernie Sanders, cut her activist teeth during the Ferguson, Missouri riots, which occurred in 2014 and 2015. Mr. Clay is black and reliably leftist, but apparently not radical enough.
Perhaps he should have sought the endorsement of Revolutionary Communist Party USA leader Bob Avakian.
Comment:
The “ Devious Cesspool “ that is the Democratic Party is clearly a threat to America's “FREEDOM”...This cannot be overstated.
Guess I'm so old, that I can remember when Communists were something we hated and fought. Now it seems, the Democrat party revels in it as evidenced by their actions in this election cycle.
I can also remember when the only good Commie was a dead Commie. It is clear that whichever black militant woman Soros choses to run with Joe Biden, this regime if installed in 2021 will have to get the Franco-Pinochet treatment from American patriots.
Never in modern history have Communists been successful in overthrowing an armed population. They always disarm them first. That is M.O. as seen in the failed Venezuelan regime. There is an estimated 300 million weapons and 30 billion rounds of ammunition in private hands in the U.S. and growing. Gun sales (legal) are currently running about 2 million/month. Does this sound like a people who are contemplating capitulation?
