Unite the struggles of the workers and peasants of Bolivia! All solidarity with the struggle of the Bolivian masses! – Declaration of the Liaison Committee for the Fourth International -LCFI
On initiative of USFI hack, ALDA and Members Charter effectively proscribe Consistent Democrats and Liaison Committee for the Fourth International
This article is based loosely on a presentation given at a Consistent Democrats discussion forum on May 10th, along with another on Trump and Netanyahu’s failed war against Iran.
There is a strong possibility of a resumption of the war in the next week or so, simply because the US, and Trump himself, cannot admit defeat. But it won’t make any difference to the outcome.
This discussion forum took place on Zoom on 19th April. The presentation and discussion are available as a podcast. Slides and notes from the presentation are below:

It is obvious that the International does not concern itself solely with the Americas, as the recent discussion on slogans regarding Iran reveals.
For Marxists, participation in bourgeois elections has always been a tactical issue. However, while for most of the left, electoralism is their raison d’être, for a minority influenced by leftist and anarchist ideas, casting a blank vote or boycotting elections is also an existential principle, a testament to being “revolutionary.”
