There you go again with your racist conspiracy theory. While membership of orthodox Stalinist, Trotskyist and Maoist organisations within the United States is low and was low even prior to the collapse of the Soviet Union, Marxist ideas, methods and attitudes are endemic in the United States and in the West generally. The Liberal is typically very weak on science and generally highly ignorant and so is drawn to conspiracy theories such as the Trump Russia conspiracy theory, or the 9/11 was an inside job and had nothing to do with Muslims conspiracy theory. The Liberal is therefore prone to project his / her primitive forms of thinking on to others.
While I don't have first hand knowledge about modern American radical politics, I do have first hand knowledge of radical left British politics from the late, eighties and nineties.
So I personally knew people who were, or had been members of the Workers Revolutionary Party, The Militant Tendency, The Socialist Workers Party, Socialist Organiser, Labour Briefing, The Workers Socialist League, Class War, The Direct Action Movement, The Anarchist Communist Federation, The Anarchist Workers Group, The New Communist Party, The Communist Party (Britain) Marxist Leninism, Proletarian, The Labour Party Young Socialists, The Anti Poll Tax Campaign, Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, Cruise Watch, The Miners Support Groups, The anti Clause 28 Campaign (Can't remember its proper name), Time To Go, The Anti Nazi League, Anti Fascist Action, the Anti Apartheid Movement and The Peace Convoy.
I also spoke to people who were or had been members of the Communist Party, The Revolutionary Communist Party, The international Marxist Group, Workers Power, Radical Chains and the Spartacus League.
There were many links between these groups to radical left groups in the United States and other countries. I know how small or even tiny groups of dedicated extremists can lead and manipulate quite sizeable mass movements and campaigns. So when I talk about Marxism and Cultural Marxism I do actually know something about what I'm talking about.
