Our words "Marxist Unity" are aspirational: we hope to rally the thousands of Marxists in DSA around a shared vision for our movementâs future. Our faction is based on seven points of unity that we hope DSA will eventually embrace. These principles of struggle are far-reaching, and they all serve one fundamental goalâone unspoken dream that we will wear on our chest. It is a dream now quietly shared by millions of people in this country: the dream of a socialist revolution in the United States.</p> 446<!--kg-card-end: html--> 447 448<!--kg-card-begin: html--> 449<style> 450 .c-post-content p { 451 font-family: var(--gh-font-utility) !important; 452 font-size: 0.99rem !important; 453 } 454</style> 455<!--kg-card-end: html--> 456 457<!--kg-card-begin: html--> 458<p style="text-align:center; margin:2rem 0;"> 459 <a href="https://www.marxistunity.com/sobre-nosotros/">Lee en Español</a> 460 | 461 <a href="https://www.marxistunity.com/ektaakaa-saat-bundaahruu/">(नà¥à¤ªà¤¾à¤²à¥ ठनà¥à¤µà¤¾à¤¦ यहाà¤)</a> 462 | 463 <a href="https://www.marxistunity.com/hindii-anuvaad-yhaan/">(हिà¤à¤¦à¥ ठनà¥à¤µà¤¾à¤¦ यहाà¤)</a> 464</p> 465<!--kg-card-end: html--> 466 467<!--kg-card-begin: html--> 468<div id="points-of-unity"></div> 469<!--kg-card-end: html--> 470<hr><h1 id="seven-points-of-unity">Seven Points of Unity</h1><p></p> 471<!--kg-card-begin: html--> 472<div class="page-layout"> 473 <nav class="toc-float"> 474 <p class="toc-title"></p> 475 <ol> 476 <li> 477 <a href="#political-independence">

We would create party-affiliated media, community services, mutual aid and defensive organizations. Within the labor movement, we would fight the existing labor bureaucracy, build militant and democratic unions, and strive to win these unions to socialist politics. As we nurture a vast ecosystem of socialist-allied institutions, our socialist party will simultaneously become a mass movement: a party-movement. </p><p>Marxist Unity Group calls for immediate steps towards political independence. We become a party by acting like one.<em> </em>For us, the "break" with the Democratic Party is a continuous process that must begin in earnest <em>right now. </em>This will require courage and faith in our ability to succeed as an independent movement, but we believe that the socialist movement is worthy of that faith.

We want a disciplined, self-reliant organization that is run democratically by its rank and file members. What holds parties together is agreement on final goals, not minor immediate tactical concerns. This approach is called programmatic unity: unity based on common struggle for essential political goals, rather than on dogmatic purity or vague slogans that obscure our true objectives. Acceptance of a political program with specific demands on the state is how the first mass socialist parties succeeded in winning the working class of their countries by the millions. A program provides direction on the political demands that will establish socialism and democratic rule by the working class without prescribing a narrow tactical route. </p> 521<!--kg-card-end: html--> 522<p>Marxist Unity Group works towards adopting a minimum-maximum program for DSA. We view both the "minimum" and "maximum" program as essential. The minimum program refers to the partyâs comprehensive platform: the policies that it will immediately implement upon taking power to establish working-class political rule and place society on the path of a socialist transition out of capitalism. The maximum program refers to the results of this process: a world free of the market, borders, classes, and all other oppressive structures that exist under capitalismâin a word, communism. Centering programmatic politics will restore the sense of unity and purpose that socialists enjoyed during the Sanders campaigns. However, our program will have much more ambitious aims, and instead of belonging to a single candidate, it will be developed democratically by the entire socialist movement.</p><p>We would like to make "program acceptance" the basis of DSA membership. Acceptance does not mean agreeing with everything in the program. It simply means being willing to fight for the program as an expression of the movementâs democratically-elaborated aims. Members would have the right to organize for specific changes to the program at conventions. Members will be free to publicly voice disagreement with any majority decision, as long as they can accept the decision as legitimate and assist with its implementation. This is the true meaning of democratic centralism. </p><hr> 523<!--kg-card-begin: html--> 524<div id="democratic-discipline"></div> 525 526<!--kg-card-end: html--> 527<h1 id="3-democratic-discipline">3.

529onceal real difficulties in our movement. Our strategy and tactics should be democratically elaborated. Our representatives in all arenas should be accountable to the party membership.</p> 530<!--kg-card-end: html--> 531<p>Democratic discipline is acutely necessary in elected office, where socialists are often operating behind enemy lines yet tasked with representing socialism to the working class. If DSA candidates are truly dedicated to socialist politics, they should run together on a common DSA platform. Even if some are elected on a Democratic ballot line, they should form their own legislative caucuses, vote as a bloc, and refuse to join the Democratic Party caucus. They should also campaign for other socialists, refuse to endorse non-socialists, and only take the wage of a typical union worker. Through this type of discipline, our candidates will rise as "tribunes of the people": organized representatives of the socialist movement.</p><p>In the labor movement, democratic discipline requires the coordination of DSA members by industry and union. In this way, our members can establish practical links among the rank and file in and between workplaces, coordinating our actions in the economic and political spheres through DSA. We believe that only an independent socialist movement can provide the basis for a strong and independent labor movement, because only that kind of party is able to democratically resolve workersâ particular different interests across sectors in order to articulate our demands together as a class.</p><p>Horse-trading, neutralism, and spineless compromise have failed to truly advance socialist politics. We will always embrace the struggle for political reforms and economic improvements, but we want socialists to conduct that struggle out in the open and win by acting as an intransigent opposition to the ruling class. Instead of cutting backroom deals as a junior coalition partner, socialists can use their platforms to raise the expectations of the working class and mobilize it to force concessions from the capitalists.</p><hr> 532<!--kg-card-begin: html--> 533<div id="nationwide-struggle"></div> 534 535<!--kg-card-end: html--> 536<h1 id="4-nationwide-struggle">4.

Americans are taught to believe that all problems should be solved locally, and socialists often accept this logic by confining themselves to isolated local campaigns, assuming that this is where "real change happens." Yet despite our backwards federal system, the United States is not an alliance of city-states or a network of 20,000 police departments. It is a colossal empire propped up by the most powerful military on Earth. Even local police are armed, trained, and integrated by the federal government. If we ignore national politics, we will become blind to the true nature of our oppressors. We will obscure their nationwide abuse of the working class, not to mention their imperialist crimes in every corner of the world. Local organizing is an indispensable foundation of our movement, but it will be infinitely more effective when it is connected to a nationwide, pan-American, and global vision for working class revolution.</p> 539<!--kg-card-end: html--> 540<p>Marxist Unity Group will work to increase DSA acting as a nationwide organization. We will build nationwide collaboration and debate through DSAâs national committees and also through developing a lively party press. We support efforts to lift chapters out of parochialism by increasing member communication across chapter lines, maintaining staffing levels required to make member-led organizing possible at the national level while ensuring fair pay and working conditions, and by integrating locals into larger state-level organizations. It is also why we want DSA to run an organized slate of socialist candidates to contest the House of Representatives. By conducting principled agitation in the halls of Congress, socialists can deliver a common message to every corner of the country. While we use the federal government as a bully pulpit, our candidates could also use their public profiles to support state and municipal organizing efforts. Federal, state, and local strugglesâstrikes, electoral campaigns, and mass demonstrationsâwill all be fused together in one grand movement that demands nothing less than a working-class, socialist revolution.</p><hr> 541<!--kg-card-begin: html--> 542<div id="fight-the-imperial-police-state"></div> 543 544<!--kg-card-end: html--> 545<h1 id="5-fight-the-imperial-police-state">5.

In the belly of the American empire, any socialist program must firmly oppose (neo)colonialism and advance the principles of national self-determinationâthat each country must be sovereign to decide its own affairs, free from military coercion or economic extortion. This means taking a defeatist stance against our country's wars, including those engaged by proxies and through military alliances like NATO, as well as cruel economic sanctions and military and diplomatic cover for colonial occupation, police repression, and ethnic cleansing.</p> 548<!--kg-card-end: html--> 549<p>But a defeatist stance against U.S. imperialism must exist alongside a revolutionary commitment to politically-independent international action. A lasting transition to socialism in any one country is impossible, and the working class can only emancipate itself on an international scale. The decline of much of the socialist movement in the 20th century into variant forms of nationalism and popular frontism âfrom the official communist "national roads to socialism" to the earlier capitulation of social democracy to "defense of the nation" during WWIâhave equally led to strategic dead-ends and tragic defeat. Though the working class of any country must first of all âcome to terms with its own bourgeoisie,â domestic reforms are only partial victories for an international class. </p><p>The socialist movement takes a leading role in expressing this international character in several ways, such as coordinated international strike action â like the historic May Day strikes âfiercely combating anti-immigrant chauvinism, and organizing to defend and extend the civil liberties of the migrant working class. As its far-reaching political objective, our party should commit to building fraternal ties with class-independent socialist parties towards the horizon of a new International. </p><p>With every tool available to us, we must erode the political, cultural, and physical hegemony of the U.S. police state. The affirmative votes of DSA-endorsed electeds for military and cop budgets, arms shipments to US vassal states, and the legal condemnation of anti-Zionism, all serve to weaken the socialist project for human emancipation. It is insufficient for socialist legislators to rhetorically criticize excessive military spending. They should be bound by our program to force a genuine public confrontation over the matter by refusing to vote for military, police, national security and intelligence budgets. By building a genuine and disciplined party infrastructure, DSA legislators and councilors would be on the forefront of a nation-wide confrontation with the imperialist state, exposing the interconnectedness of police and military brutality. </p><p>As we wage immediate struggles against repressive capitalist institutions like police departments and ICE, a socialist vision for abolitionism requires concrete, programmatic commitment to alternative, radically democratic political institutions, recognizing that abolition is impossible without the working class taking state power into its own hands. The racist militarized border regime will be replaced by an open border, with complete freedom of movement for all peoples and universal citizenship for residents. The armed forces of international capitalâthe prison industrial
549complex, police, and the militaryâwill be replaced by a democratic and popular militia, flowing from the working class and the oppressedâs organs of self-defense established under capitalismâdefined by the right to bear arms, the sovereignty of the people, universal service and training, and a rigorous community control coexisting with the democratic rights of members. </p><hr> 550<!--kg-card-begin: html--> 551<div id="fight-the-constitution"></div> 552 553<!--kg-card-end: html--> 554<h1 id="6-fight-the-constitution">6.

There can be no question of submitting to a political order that exists to divide and conquer the working class, that slices up the government and divorces it from the will of the peopleâthat is set in stone and almost impossible to amend. Black people cannot be free under a constitution written by slaveholders; indigenous people cannot win sovereignty under a constitution designed to facilitate their elimination; women cannot be free under a constitution written before they had the right to vote, and working people cannot be free under a constitution that enshrines private property. No one can be truly free if they are forced to bow to a reactionary constitution written by the dead.

We stand for the right of the working class to take power by any means necessary. To win a socialist republic, millions of working people must be mobilized in their workplaces, at the ballot box, and in the street. We recognize that the capitalist class relies on the minoritarian rule of the U.S. Constitution, and they will not give it up peacefully. The working class will need armed self-defense to protect itself from the inevitable violence of reaction. We also recognize that we must fight for the democratic rights of enlisted U.S. soldiers. To complete a successful revolution, we must win a decisive section of the military rank and file over to our side.</p><hr> 559<!--kg-card-begin: html--> 560<div id="demand-a-new-republic"></div> 561 562<!--kg-card-end: html--> 563<h1 id="7-demand-a-new-republic-finish-reconstruction">7.

We desire the widest possible geographic scope for such a state so that it can most effectively carry out this mission, but we also recognize the principle of national self-determination.

This period of crisis will provide our class with an opportunity to topple the old order and convene a revolutionary Popular Assembly: a majoritarian constitutional convention elected by all the people. Under the democratic leadership of a victorious socialist party, the Popular Assembly will proceed to construct the socialist order. It will dismantle the slaveholder constitution and write the founding documents of the new republic. </p><p>Immediately upon taking power, socialists will implement a sweeping minimum program to cement working class political rule. We will need to destroy every institution that denies the people an authentic popular democracy, abolishing the Senate, the Electoral College, the Supreme Court, and the independent presidency. We will implement direct, universal, and equal suffrage. Supreme power will rest in the hands of a popular, unicameral assembly elected by proportional representation. Delegates will be recallable at any time and will receive no more than a skilled workerâs wage. All parties that accept the laws of the new revolutionary order will be free to operate. Local organs of government will have a wide degree of autonomy. Unrestricted freedom of speech will be guaranteed to all. To make good on the unfulfilled promise of Reconstruction, our republic will launch social programs of targeted wealth redistribution, striving to eliminate all racial inequalities. The socialist republic will put political power and economic resources into the hands of all racially oppressed and colonized people. </p><p>Our broader economic program will include unimpeded labor and union rights, a massive reduction in working hours, and a truly universal welfare state that provides for all citizens from cradle to grave. We will create programs to reduce the power of bureaucrats and teach administrative skills to all workers. Worker self-management will be encouraged to the greatest extent achievable in every industry. Large industry will be placed under collective ownership early on, and we will progressively socialize the rest of the economy as we build our capacity for democratic economic planning. We will pursue crash course programs to address the ecological crisis and establish resilient forms of production, distribution and habitation. Climate refugees will be welcomed into our republic with open arms.</p><p>With the shackles of the old order broken, the working class will finally have the power to remake society on egalitarian lines. In cooperation with the global socialist movement, we will move closer with every passing year to a fully liberated classless society: communism. Communism abolishes money, class distinctions, racial discrimination, patriarchy, national boundaries, oppressive gender roles, the mental/manual division of labor, and all other forms of social oppression. It is a society truly based on the principle âfrom each according to their ability, to each according to their need,â where humanity collectively plans its economic activities through a free association of labor. Communism brings freedom to both society and the individual and will be the true beginning of human history.</p><div class="kg-card kg-cta-card kg-cta-bg-grey kg-cta-immersive kg-cta-centered" data-layout="immersive"> 568 569 <div class="kg-cta-sponsor-label-wrapper"> 570 <div class="kg-cta-sponsor-label"> 571 <span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Light & Air / Marxist Unity Group</span> 572 </div> 573 </div> 574 575 <div class="kg-cta-content"> 576 577 578 <div class="kg-cta-content-inner"> 579 580 <div class="kg-cta-text"> 581 <p><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Liked what you read?
