The Serious Implications—and Challenges—of Trump’s Fascist Victory
Highlights from a Refuse Fascism Forum with Paul Street & Andy Zee, hosted by Refuse Fascism's Sam Goldman

On November 8, Paul Street and Andy Zee joined Refuse Fascism host Sam Goldman for an online forum to discuss Trump's fascist electoral victory. The forum was titled: 

FASCISM IS NEVER LEGITIMATE! 
WE REFUSE TO ACCEPT A TRUMP FASCIST AMERICA

ONLINE FORUM: 

What does it mean for the future that half of the country 
voted for a white supremacist, misogynist Fascist?

Samantha posed sharp questions, and Andy and Paul went deeply into them. Why did half the country vote for this fascist? What are the serious implications—and the deeper causes? And what must be understood about how to—and how not to—fight this? 

This program was sponsored by Refuse Fascism in association with ⁠The RNL—Revolution Nothing Less!—Show. The whole program was marked by intense and lively exchanges over really deep questions that are now being confronted, with both Andy and Paul drawing from the work of Bob Avakian on the questions of fascism, this system, revolution and the current juncture.

The following are highlights taken from the Forum.

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!
