The Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) is a communist political party in the United States. PSL formed in 2004, when its members split from the Workers World Party.
PSL describes itself as a revolutionary socialist party, as the party believes that only a revolution can end capitalism and establish socialism.[6][7] PSL pursues this goal by participating in local protests, running candidates in elections, and conducting political education.
Notable members include Claudia de la Cruz, Eugene Puryear, Gloria La Riva, Jodi Dean, and Michael Prysner.

I want to turn our attention to the magical thinking of the Party for Socialism and Liberation. As a Marxist-Leninist Party in the United States, the PSL was founded in 2004.

The PSL espouses a Marxist-Leninist ideology, one intent on "fighting the war program in the U.S., fighting imperialism, and fighting for Socialism," said Gloria La Riva, a socialist presidential candidate since 1993 and a PSL founder.

The Party for Socialism and Liberation believes that the only solution to the deepening crisis of capitalism is the socialist transformation of society. [....] The idea that the capitalists' grip on society and their increasingly repressive state can be abolished through any means other than a revolutionary overturn is an illusion. Equally unrealistic are reformist hopes for a "kinder, gentler" capitalism, or solutions based on economic decentralization or small group autonomy. [....] There are really only two choices for humanity today—an increasingly destructive capitalism, or socialism.

The PSL split from the Marxist-Leninist Workers World Party in 2004, and one of its founders has declared, "We are communists." The party calls for the "revolutionary" overthrow of capitalism and denounces "reformist hopes" for a "kinder, gentler" capitalism. The PSL has supported the North Korean regime and its pursuit of nuclear weapons and also hailed the Chinese Communist Party, defending it against various charges of human rights violations. Brian Becker, a co-founder of the PSL, used to co-host a show on Radio Sputnik, a Moscow-created propaganda network.
