"The New Deal and the Fifth Party System" is up on the bookshelf!

I gone done did me a theory again, y'all. It's called "The New Deal and the Fifth Party System" and I hope you'll do me the honor of reading it.

I've mentioned in previous essays, and in Class Analysis and Rev, that I think that communists who actually want to die in a communist America ought to be Republicans. There are so many different arguments for it, and I have only begun to make them. Nevertheless, this notion flies in the face of mainstream socialist theory, which still maintains that we should all be AOC simps. I'll leave that job to Chuckles Kirk, however.

Mostly I've made the historical argument for our involvement in the GOP: that it was once a Marxist workers' party that did cool Marxist workers' party things, and can be made to do so again. I've also pointed out that Trump proved it is manifestly the easier of the two big parties to take over, and that it's already become an anti-imperialist party again of its own accord.

Well, in this essay, I delve more deeply into the history of America's party systems, what question our current party system is designed to answer, and the proper communist orientation to this party system. So please, check it out!
