On Sunday, the newly-formed Revolutionary Communists of America (RCA - not to be confused with the Rabbinical Council of America) held their inaugural Congress in Philadelphia, marking the establishment of their American chapter of the Revolutionary Communists coordination, a global movement active in multiple countries.
Following the Congress, approximately 500 RCA members marched through Philadelphia streets, displaying red flags adorned with the hammer and sickle symbol.
The ideology has been linked to numerous regimes responsible for widespread human rights abuses. Estimates suggest that communist regimes, such as those in the Soviet Union, China under Mao Zedong, and Cambodia under Pol Pot, have collectively caused the deaths of approximately 100 million people through political purges, forced labor, and famine.
This is part of the general movement in the US and the world at large to reject democracy and capitalism.
