PHILOSOPHY AND REVOLUTION
Part 1: Objective reality and truth, in opposition to paltry yet poisonous opportunism—perversions of communist theory in the name of proletarian/communist revolution
and
Part 2: More on Marxist “reflection theory,” the importance of communism as a scientific approach to understanding and transforming reality—and refutation of opportunist attacks on this by phony “communists”
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS “TOTALITARIANISM”
“Totalitarianism” is a thoroughly unscientific—or, really, anti-scientific—“theory” concocted and promoted by intellectual apologists of this system of capitalism-imperialism.

The Importance of a Scientific Understanding and Approach by Bob Avakian August 23, 2021 As I have noted recently, there is a serious problem in this country that many people are refusing to get the vaccines against COVID, when in fact these vaccines have been clearly demonstrated to be safe and effective against serious illness and death from COVID. If the great majority of people in this country were vaccinated, this would mark a huge step toward getting the COVID pandemic under control—even as it is also necessary for people all around the world to be vaccinated as well, with […]

January 2021, New Year’s Statement
by Bob AvakianA New Year,The Urgent Need For A Radically New World —For The Emancipation Of All Humanity 1 In my statement of August 1 of last year, I put forward the analysis that, in the particular circumstances of this presidential election and the truly profound stakes it posed, if the Trump/Pence regime remained in power at the time of this election, it would be necessary and important to vote for Biden to deliver a decisive electoral defeat to the fascism represented by this regime. At the same time, I emphasized that simply relying on voting would likely lead to disaster, and that […]
