Dispatches

We condemn The Daily Show in the strongest possible terms, renowned and despised among the American people for its arrogant bourgeois elitism, for its sinister attempt to legitimize the now-defunct “CPUSA” and its so-called former co-chair Joe Sims as representatives of Communists in America. The CPUSA has been reconstituted for over a year, with legitimate representatives from dozens of its own clubs, in the midst of the total liquidation of democratic centralism, ratifying the decision to declare the American Communist Party as the official and legitimate reconstitution of the CPUSA. Additionally, it is well known that the CPUSA is a defunct organization in practice as well as in procedure. It is, in practice, the retirement fund of a small clique, whose pension depends on the anti-communist Democrats of People’s World, who own the Party’s historic fortunes and wealth and thus pay the revenues and salaries of its leadership. The Daily Show, in falsely portraying the CPUSA as America’s preeminent Communist Party, makes a mockery of American Communists. The smug, arrogant, sniveling bourgeois simpleton did nothing but mock and degrade Joe Sims on camera, who allowed her to condescendingly belittle him and thus by extension the historical CPUSA. This shameful and disgraceful provocation aimed at humiliating the historical CPUSA is an insult to the legacy of William Z. Foster and all heroic American Communists who fought tirelessly to build an independent and preeminent party of the American working class.
