From today, libcom will be an abbreviation of 'Library of Communism' to reflect our move towards a more Marxist Leninist approach.

After much reflection, and watching Michael Parenti on YouTube, we have realised that 'Libertarian Communism' works in the service of US Empire by spreading anti-communist revisionist propaganda. We have been influenced by the International Communist Tendency's staunch defenses of Lenin and the Comintern, as well as many comrades on twitter who have critiqued our pro-Imperialist positions.

While we still do not think the 'really existing socialist' states were perfect, it is impossible to deny the amazing increase in living conditions achieved by Marxist Leninist States, as well as the support they gave to anti-Imperialist movements around the world, such as Colonel Gaddafi, Mengistu Haile Mariam, and Ho Chi Minh.

We will begin this process by featuring more Leninist content on our social media accounts. Our archive has more than 25,000 articles, most of which aren't Leninist, so becoming an anti-revisionist archive will take a bit longer, please bear with us!

Happy April Fool's Day 2019
