We Refuse to Accept This System’s Future!

A Better World, Without Exploitation and Oppression, Is Possible!

We, the revcoms, call on you to stand up. Join us—representing and calling on others on Monday, May 1st to send this message to the world: In these dark times, we are building a force to bring forward thousands and then millions into a movement for an actual revolution.

Revolution means overthrowing this economic and political system of capitalism-imperialism. Why overthrow? Because it cannot be reformed.

Look around you. From the sweatshops of Bangladesh to the mines of Congo… from Ciudad Juárez, Mexico to Memphis, Tennessee... this system bitterly grinds people up and destroys the environment—all to amass its great wealth. This system oppresses Black and Brown and other people of color through discrimination, segregation, police murder, and more. This system holds down women and now denies them even the right to control their own bodies. This system demonizes and discriminates against LGBTQ people. It cruelly persecutes refugees and immigrants. And right now, the capitalist-imperialists who run the U.S. are taking things to the brink of nuclear war—not “for the Ukrainians,” but to defend and expand their domination of the world against other imperialists.

No election, no reform can stop this. Only revolution—nothing less—can put an end to the system that requires these horrors. We need a whole new system, and a new society. The vision and blueprint for that society is laid out in the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America, authored by the revolutionary leader Bob Avakian, BA, the most important political thinker and leader on the planet today. With that Constitution as the foundation, there would be a real hope to end oppression, exploitation, and the destruction of the environment.

The chance to make this revolution is real—it is not something in the distant future. Those who have ruled over this system are at each other’s throats in a way they haven’t been since the Civil War. One side aims to go full-out to fascism. The other side has no answers other than to keep the same old “normal” oppressive shit going. The clashes between them cause people to agonize and to wonder if things could be different—and this movement for revolution must reach all through society to show why this is happening and what must be done. Only in this way can anything good come out of this clash.

Come out May 1st. On that day, people need to see the reality of a force—one whose vision, determination, daring and confidence will reverberate far and wide. A force that aims not just to change a few things here or there, but one that aims to establish a whole different system aiming to emancipate all of humanity, worldwide. A force that can begin now to be a magnetic pole for those hungering for something truly better. A force that can grow in the year ahead into the thousands and then ultimately the millions.

Get with the revcoms on May 1st. Learn about the Revolution Club and how you can be organized to be part of changing the world and emancipating humanity.

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!
