What's the point of joining a communist party that will recieve less than 1% of 1% of the vote? It makes more sense to turn the Democratic party communist. Unless we have ranked choice voting, third parties aren't viable. It sucks but that's the situation we're in. If you're running for office and have great ideas than it's wasted unless you run under one of the two major parties.

    oh dear you are being incredibly naive. You don't shape the party, it shapes you. You're only focusing on electoralism and it's a dead end.

    Sounds like a defeatest attitude to me.

    Really? It has never happened, it can't happen. The democrats are there only to serve capital, same with the republicans.

    I told you, join a communist party and organize. Read theory. Voting in a bourgeois democracy does nothing for the proletariat.
