    The Communist Party USA – like the bulk of the broad democratic, labor, peace, and people’s movements in the country – has prioritized the defeat of MAGA fascism and Republicans’ Project 2025 agenda as the primary task of its participation in the 2024 election

    I get the knee jerk reaction to think any and all third parties exist solely to be a spoiler for Dems and thusly get Trump elected. But I wonder if the people down voting this noticed that the Communist Party USA isn’t pushing a candidate, and is instead saying people should vote for Kamala to defeat fascism.

    The article linked just talks about various progressive goals and how said Party hopes to achieve them.

    Their website even has a recent article talking about how all a progressive candidate can do in this presidential election is break up the vote and usher in fascism under Trump. And how instead pushing for a united front is the way to go.

    In their voting reforms I would love to see them push also for election day to be a national holiday. We shouldnt have to find time, the government should assure us time to vote.

    When I navigate to the article I instantly get a blue and red “sign up” popup that darkens the article behind it and prevents selecting text. Does anyone know how to prevent these? ublock origin is great, but I’d prefer something autonomous that prevents these altogether.
