An initial plan and vision to launch the National Campaign to Get @BobAvakianOfficial Everywhere!

Impacting with a grassroots movement + targeted advertising + bold actions

Updated

In this campaign, we are aiming to combine our efforts between what people take up and spread on-the-ground and advertising/media reach—a "synergy" of impact. This will be a battle—political, ideological, up against what this system wants people to think—and what internet algorithms reinforce.

We need to raise tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars... to garner tens and hundreds of thousands of followers... to reach millions.

There will be a national grassroots effort combined with a national team focused on advertising strategy, developing materials as well as outreach to people with significant "platforms."  And all of this needs to involve growing numbers of people learning about and being inspired and challenged by Bob Avakian, the new communism and the strategy for revolution.

Engaging, and spreading, the leadership from @BobAvakianOfficial is the leading edge of a strategic approach to making revolution in this time—and building up the organized forces for this revolution now.  For more on what this strategic approach is, read REVOLUTION: Building Up the Basis to Go for the Whole Thing With a Real Chance to Winat revcom.us

TO START:

Turn Heads During the Democratic National Convention (DNC) August 19-22

On the ground in Chicago, online and across the country: expose the BEB (Bourgeois Electoral Bullshit) with posters, stickers, and social media ads that tell the truth about the nature of this system, and what is coming to a head. Millions of people will hear about, and be tuned into, the DNC.  There is an urgent need, and real opportunity to project that there IS AN alternative to the MAGA fascist Trump and the genocide-backing Democrats: Bob Avakian, and the revcoms he leads.

We are aiming to raise $10,000 by the end of the DNC—for national materials, and online advertising.  DONATE at revcom.us

Reverberating with on-the-ground actions, we will be launching our online advertising campaign—experimenting, and learning!  In that week, $3-5,000 will get social media ads in front of 275,000–500,000 people, aiming to drive people to follow, engage and spread his social media dispatches. We want to start on Instagram, YouTube and podcast ads.

We are at a turning point in history. The capitalist-imperialist system is a horror for billions of people here and around the world and threatening the very fabric of life on earth. Now the election of fascist Trump poses even more extreme dangers for humanity—and underscores the total illegitimacy of this system, and the urgent need for a radically different system.

The website Revcom.us follows the revolutionary leadership of Bob Avakian (BA), the author of the new communism. Bob Avakian has scientifically analyzed that we are in a rare time when an actual revolution has become more possible in the U.S. He’s charted a strategy for making that revolution, and laid out a sweeping vision and concrete blueprint for “what comes next” in the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America.

Revcom.us projects BA’s voice, leadership, and vision throughout society. It posts his timely leadership for the revcoms (revolutionary communists) and the whole movement for revolution, including his social media posts, and curates his whole body of work. 

Our website applies the scientific approach BA has developed to analyze major events in society and the world—why they are happening, how they relate to each other, how all this relates to the system we live under, where people's interests lie, how revolution is in fact the solution to all this, and what the goals of that revolution are.

Revcom.us acts as a guiding and connecting hub for the revcom movement nationwide: showing what’s being done, digging into what’s right and what’s wrong, and rapidly learning—and recruiting new people into what has to be a rapidly growing force. As part of this, revcom.us feature and promotes the weekly The RNL—Revolution, Nothing Less!—Show on YouTube.com. 

Put it this way: there will be no revolution unless this website not only “keeps going” but rises to a whole different level!

DONATE NOW to revcom.us and get with BA and the revcoms!
