Revision as of 19:02, 20 July 2022
Infrared is a media collective led by someone named Haz, who is a self-described Marxist-Leninist located in Detroit, MI, USA.
As of 2022, the channel has about 20,000 subscribers, and over 2,000,000 views.[1] His community is based on a mixture of Marxism-Leninism, Populism, and Esotericism.[2]
The Infrared community has popularized the Twitter hashtag and internet meme #CPUSA2036 which aims to take control of the CPUSA, and remove its revisionist component.[3]
Reactionary sympathies
Haz and his community hold many "socially conservative views," upholding the American Revolution as a force of anti-imperialism, and rapidly inherited the vestiges of the empire in the aftermath of WWII, when British capital was used to subvert the American republic through transnational and unconstitutional institutions,[4] and taking a heavily unorthodox approach to disseminating ideology, most commonly adopting esoteric jargon like "mecha-tankies" and "Stalinist Futurism" to distinguish themselves and their positions from what they consider to be the "Baizuo" and the"synthetic left."[5]
