Hi All,
If the following description of a socialist group called "The Party for
Socialism and Liberation (PSL) has a familiar ring to it, you'll hardly
be surprised:
"A proponent of "revolutionary Marxism," PSL's professed mission is to
oppose capitalism, which the group defines as "the system in which all
wealth and power is held by a tiny group of billionaires and their
state," and to promote "socialism." As an anti-war group, PSL regards
"U.S. capitalism" as the underlying cause of war, and calls for a
"revolution" as the only viable alternative. PSL further believes that
the United States is controlled by a "state monopoly" that includes the
"big business media," the "Military-Industrial Complex," and "the
corporations and the banks," of which the two major political parties
are mere agents. PSL summarizes its agenda in a 64-page pamphlet titled
The Party for Socialism and Liberation: Who We Are, What We Stand For,
which articulates the group's belief in the "validity of Marxism and
Leninism," expresses its support for "revolutionary Cuba," and attacks
"U.S. imperialism" and the U.S. "drive for global domination."
