'''Caleb Maupin''' is a [[Lyndon LaRouche|LaRouchite]] [[Patriotic socialism|patriotic socialist]] cult founder from the [[United States of America|USA]] who came to national and even international prominence in August 2022 after accusations of abuse (sexual and manipulative) were brought forward by former members of his think tank.<ref name=":0">{{Web citation|author=CPI Members Speak Out|newspaper=Medium|title=Caleb Maupin’s Former Comrades Speak Out, His Abuses Must Stop!|date=2022-08-20|archive-url=https://archive.ph/H3CHW#selection-599.0-599.63}}</ref>

== Formation of the Center for Political Innovation ==
Maupin founded the [[Center for Political Innovation]] (CPI), a for-profit business<ref>{{Web citation|author=Fash Busters|newspaper=Twitter|title=So Caleb Maupin says he's resigning from CPI yet he seems to control all CPI assets and cash flow because it's a registered corporation that uses his address (DOS ID: 6336676). He probably owns all 100 shares of CPI as well.|date=2022-08-21|url=https://twitter.com/fash_busters/status/1561184200375640064|archive-url=https://archive.ph/YDE2j}}</ref> that he called a think tank. This made him the sole owner of the CPI and allowed it to make profits, which wouldn't be possible in an organisation registered as a political party.

=== Accusations of abuse ===
Maupin ran the CPI from a hotel room in [[New York City|New York]] that cost $600 a week, where he forced the new and younger members to live and volunteer most of their time towards fund-raising and canvassing for new members. Members were supposed to provide for themselves during that time and pay for the hotel room themselves, while Maupin was living in his own home and had his own job.

A few years later, accusations of abuse formally came out in an article published by ex-members on Medium.<ref name=":0" />

In the now-deleted (but archived) piece, ex-members of the CPI accuse Maupin of pushing his spanking fetish on them unprompted and without consent. One of the members, identified only as Member 2, explained how Maupin essentially made her lose her job by requiring she give more time to the John Brown Volunteers (the precursor to the CPI), which led to her being fired. Afterwards, he used the 19-year-old's position of vulnerability to push her into [[prostitution]]. He seemingly achieved this because Member 2 was, at the time, very vulnerable and had done such work in the past. By admonishing her when she wanted to get a job (such as the math tutoring part-time job she lost), Maupin eventually left her no choice but to return to prostitution. When Member 2 told Maupin she was picking it up again, his only reaction was that he "respects [her] decision".

From there, Member 2 relapsed into heroin and Maupin used that to isolate her from the rest of the CPI, even lying about her addiction to other members (after she got better) so they would not associate with her.

=== Spanking fetish ===
Maupin's fetish for spanking is well-documented, and it is something that he brings into seemingly every conversation he has with people for his own sexual gratification.

In the abuse piece, several of his former comrades speak about his spanking fetish and how he'd work it even in texts.

In 2020, he defended spanking (corporal punishment) to [[Sameera Khan]], another noted [[reactionary]]/patriotic socialist.<ref>{{Web citation|author=Caleb T. Maupin|newspaper=Twitter|title=“spanking” is a term that is very hard to define. Different strata & cultures in the USA have completely different definitions of the term. Also, 19 US states still allow teachers to spank students. In rural Texas & Alabama it’s very common.|date=2020-07-29|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200730013828/https://twitter.com/calebmaupin/status/1288650109090238464}}</ref>

That same year, when allegations of abuse in the [[Party for Socialism and Liberation]] came to light, Maupin instantly jumped to invoking [[COINTELPRO]] to defend the PSL.<ref>{{Web citation|author=Caleb T. Maupin|newspaper=Twitter|title=A few years back it was all over twitter that a friend of mine had sexually assaulted someone... allegation posted anonymously referred to an accuser in a branch of the party that DID NOT EXIST. No one could ever find out where the allegation came from. COINTELPRO is everywhere|date=2020-12-15|archive-url=https://archive.ph/4CnI5#selection-4149.0-4149.280}}</ref>

He ran two segments on [[RT (TV Network)|RT]] defending spanking and corporal punishment, one in 2016 and one in 2021.

=== Dissolution of the CPI ===
After the accusations came out, the CPI decided its own dissolution. Their twitter account was deactivated and their website did not load any page. Maupin himself deactivated his own [[Twitter]] account and moved away from the public eye.

== Reemergence ==
In November 2022, Maupin came back to public life. He first posted a video in which he haphazardly "addressed" the accusations (calling them lies and dismissing them on that basis) and then reactivated his Twitter account. He has begun tweeting again since then.

=== Anti-communist activities ===
[[File:Caleb maupin meeting with far-righters.png|thumb|Caleb Maupin with Aleksandr Dugin and other far-right figures]]
Despite Maupin's claims that he is a [[Communism|communist]], he has on many occasions heavily criticized communists for their views when they do not align with his strand of patriotic socialism. He has also been very close to many [[Anti-communism|anti-communists]] and [[Fascism|fascists]], trying to cleanse their image to his audience.

In 2014, Maupin was present at the 2nd International Conference of Independent Thinkers hosted in Tehran, [[Islamic Republic of Iran|Iran]]. He was on a panel that also featured "[[Nazism-Maoism|Nazi-Maoist]]" (a short-lived movement in [[Italian Republic|Italy]]) Claudio Mutti, as well as other fascists who were funded by the [[Central Intelligence Agency|CIA]] during [[Operation Gladio]].<ref>{{Web citation|author=The Maupin Archives|newspaper=Twitter|title=Fun fact: Caleb Maupin sat at the same panel as Nazi-Maoist Cluadio Mutti and was in the same room as fascists who were funded by the CIA and Operation Gladio.|date=2022-09-17|url=https://twitter.com/MaupinAFA/status/1571136935980310529|archive-url=https://archive.ph/C1sWq}}</ref>

He was present at the Alternatives To Globalization Conference in 2018, sitting next to noted fascist [[Aleksandr Dugin]] and speaking alongside him. He defended this decision and spoke highly of Dugin (a [[Mysticism|mystical]], [[Metaphysics|metaphysical]] author) since that event Notably, it was reported by attendees that the only books sold at CPI events were from Maupin and Dugin.

The CPI hosted a webinar which featured [[Alfred De Zayas]], a member of the [[Federal Republic of Germany|German]] far-right [[AfD]] party and noted [[Holocaust]] revisionist.<ref>{{Web citation|author=The Maupin Archives|newspaper=Twitter|title=Caleb Maupin needs a massive disclaimer Alfred de Zayas is a member of the AfD (Alternative for Germany), a Nazi apologist and a Holocaust revisionist|date=2022-04-27|url=https://twitter.com/MaupinAFA/status/1519388507676028928|archive-url=https://archive.ph/wc28B}}</ref> As the CPI is Maupin's own business, he is ultimately responsible for this decision.

Ron Paul Maoism

2023-01-01T02:48:24Z

'''Ron Paul Maoism''', sometimes referred to alternatively as '''Ron Paul Bolshevism''', is an imbecilic oxymoron concocted by theoretically uneducated [[Infrared]] propagaists and spammers on Twitter. The nature regarding how a proletarian and Socialist ideology, such as Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, and a petite-bourgeois Capitalist ideology, such as Libertarianism, can possibly syndicate is uncertain, but Haz Al-Din will persist in using esoteric lexicon to "prove" such a foolish idea is Marxian, despite him never reading a page of Marxist or even Socialist literature in his life (Note, ''Mein Kampf'' does not count as Socialist nor Marxist theory, despite what the Infrared community may claim).

Real sources for Maoism may be found [https://www.bannedthought.net/International/RIM/AWTW/1995-20/ll_mlm_20_eng.htm here], do not waste your time on this pseudo-intellectual wordcraft.

Patriotic Socialism

2023-01-01T02:38:21Z

2600:6C44:7C7F:144E:4934:C57B:3D72:782E:

'''Patriotic socialism''' (abbreviated '''Patsoc''') is an [[Opportunism|opportunist]] and [[Revisionism|revisionist]] movement, born in the [[United States of America|United States]], that advocates for [[patriotism]] within the [[imperial core]]. It is distinct from patriotism within [[Anti-imperialism|anti-imperialist]], [[Colonialism|colonized]], and [[Socialism|socialist]] countries. Patriotic socialism has grown to become its own strand of "socialist" theory, especially within the Communist movement in the United States. However, this trend is wholly different from "patriotism as applied to socialism". The confusion however is often exploited by followers of this ideology so as to associate themselves with more progressive (and successful) patriotic movements, such as are seen in the [[State of Palestine|Palestinian]] struggle or in [[Mao Zedong|Mao]]'s [[People's Republic of China|People's Republic China]].

It should be noted that the name ''patriotic socialism'' was also coined by its followers and remains the name they prefer to be called today, thus marking a clear difference with ''socialist patriotism'' or other similar terms.

The people who are commonly associated as theorists of patriotic socialism include [[Haz]], [[Caleb Maupin]], and [[Jackson Hinkle]].<ref name=":0">[https://regenerationmag.org/american-patriotism-or-national-liberation/ American Patriotism or National Liberation?]</ref><ref name=":2">[https://www.socialist.net/left-patriotism-an-opportunist-disorder.htm 'Left patriotism': An opportunist disorder]</ref><ref name=":1">{{Web citation|author=[[Infrared]]|newspaper=Youtube|title=Socialist Patriotism: America vs. America|date=2022-10-26|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eveOKE4Ones&t=915s|retrieved=2022-10-3}}</ref>

==Positions==
Patriotic socialism is a rapidly evolving ideology, and as a consequence of the disorganization and cliquishness among is adherents, may change its appearance quickly and often as needed, and often lacks any sort of commonly-agreed upon theory or principles that are beyond a few basic tenets.

For instance, the patriotic socialist collective [[Infrared]] published a manifesto presenting ''MAGAcommunism'' in September 2022, which was previously restricted to an esoteric hashtag, holds this reactionary, tailist slogan as their ideological line. It should be noted that the [[Center for Political Innovation]] dissolved a month prior the publishing of this essay due to allegations of abuse brought up by members against Caleb Maupin.<ref>{{Web citation|author=Haz Al-Din|newspaper=[[Infrared]]|title=THE RISE OF MAGA COMMUNISM|date=2022-9-18|url=https://showinfrared.substack.com/p/the-rise-of-maga-communism?sd=pf|retrieved=2022-9-22}}</ref>

Other general positions can similarly be identified. Patriotic socialists advocate for an alliance with, and indeed commonly tail the interests and ideological tendency of, the [[petty bourgeoisie]] (whom they conflate with the [[proletariat]]).<ref>{{Web citation|author=[[Infrared]]|newspaper=Youtube|title=Rise of the Mecha-Tankies|date=2022-7-19|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPojH2KtLks|retrieved=2022-10-3}}</ref> They further tend to promote [[Aleksandr Dugin|Dugin]] and [[Lyndon LaRouche|LaRouche]] to their followers and align with them: two [[Anti-communism|anti-communist]], quasi-[[Fascism|fascist]] and [[Mysticism|mysticist]] writers. They also align with [[right-wing]] [[Populism|populist]] protest movements, such as the Tea Party movement, or the [[2022 Truckers' Protest|2022 Trucker protests]].

Several patriotic socialists were very vocal about the 2022 Cuban constitutional referendum that abolished the monopoly of the nuclear family and recognized many other forms of family. They decried it as "degeneracy" and considered Cuba to no longer be socialist. This indicates a large share of chauvinist and reactionary opinions in the movement that are not being addressed.

Finally, they wholly reject [[decolonialism]] in the United States, holding instead that if workers are liberated, it would include Native and minority workers too.<ref name=":1" />

==Praxis==
Patriotic socialism, even after several years of existing, is a movement that remains mostly online: notably using social media to create virality and thus visibility.

They have yet to form a political party, instead promoting the ''CPUSA 2036'' slogan: an attempt at infiltrating and sabotaging the [[Communist Party of the United States of America|Communist Party of the USA]] and win the 2036 presidential election with it. The Center for Political Innovation for example was registered as a think tank by Caleb Maupin, and not as a party.

Patriotic socialists tend to attack the left -- including the projects and efforts of communists and marxist-leninists, particularly when it is internet-based, but almost never the right. In fact, they often agree with conservatives and boost their message.

MAGA Communism

2023-01-01T02:37:11Z

2600:6C44:7C7F:144E:4934:C57B:3D72:782E:

'''MAGACommunism''' is an [[Opportunism|opportunist]] and [[Tailism|tailist]] online slogan that calls for the ideological unification of [[Marxism|Marxists]] and the [[reactionary]] [[Capitalism|capitalist]] [[Trumpism|Trumpist]] movement that is promoted largely by [[Statesian]] [[patriotic socialists]] and other social-chauvinists. So-called "MAGA Communists" have promoted [[Conspiracy theory|conspiracy theories]], [[racism]], and [[anti-Semitism]] in order to appeal to right-wing [[Christianity|Christian]] [[Nationalism|nationalists]].

== Description ==
The slogan appeared in August 2022 on [[Twitter]]. Its most notable promoters are [[Jackson Hinkle]] and [[Infrared]], whose rhetoric concerning this slogan has inspired a small online clique of "MAGACommunist" propaganists and trolls to emerge, largely from their respective followers.

While this clique is highly vocal, it has convinced very few people, and remains entirely internet-based. Their social media strategy is to spam content, no matter how nonsensical, to create virality through engagement and the illusion of popularity. It has yet to be organized in an actual political party or have its theory practiced.

MAGACommunism can be compared to [[Strasserism]] due to their mutual opposition to finance capital, "globalists," and their "pro-[[Petty bourgeoisie|small business]]" stance which echoes Strasser's "guild socialism".

== History ==
"Patriotic Socialists" aligned with Haz Al-Din openly revealed their true allegiance and views in mid 2022, declaring themselves to be in ideological unity with the Fascistic “Make American Great Again” (MAGA) movement, which is headed by the billionaire-capitalist Donald Trump. In their folly and open treachery to Marxism, they have further named themselves “MAGA Communists”.

Despite still identifying themselves as “Marxists”, “Communists”, “Stalinists”, etc., "MAGA Communists" have all but removed themselves from all aspects of Marxism and Stalinism, with them being in a state of total capitulation to the regressive forces of tailism and fascism. The propaganists of “MAGA Communism” do little more than combat all true Communists and other progressive and revolutionary forces, while at the same time, pledging their support for bourgeois figures such as Donald Trump. They tail the petite-bourgeoisie at any instance, with them spreading the most backwards, barbaric ideas ever known in a moribund attempt to attract support from larger reactionary forces; racism, anti-semitism, anti-intellectualism, homophobia, transphobia, and similar reactionary ideas.

Infrared

2022-10-30T02:53:22Z

2600:6C44:7C7F:144E:B035:B4F5:7571:DF8A: Infrared is a careerist snake, as are you revisionists.

'''Infrared''' is a media collective led by '''Haz Al-Din''', a self-described [[Marxist-Leninist]] and "[[Patriotic socialism|patriotic socialist]]" based in Detroit, Michigan, [[United States of America|USA]]. As of 2022, the channel has about 20,000 subscribers and over 2,000,000 views.<ref>{{News citation|author=Infrared|newspaper=Youtube|title=About|url=https://www.youtube.com/c/InfraredShow/about|retrieved=2022-7-12}}</ref> His community is based on a mixture of Marxism-Leninism, [[populism]], and esotericism.<ref>{{News citation|author=Infrared|newspaper=YouTube|title=What Infrared Is All About|date=2022-07-13|url=https://youtu.be/jwyqM8VcHR0}}</ref>
== Content ==
The Infrared collective is dominated by Haz, in regards to their content. Their youtube channel largely contains entire livestreams, mostly containing Haz, or clips of livestreams, such as notable parts of debates. Such content often includes, on its thumbnail, exaggerated or even fabricated quotes of what the other person in the debate said, along with other attention-giving pictures.<ref>{{News citation|author=Infrared|newspaper=Youtube|url=https://www.youtube.com/c/InfraredShow/videos|retrieved=2022-7-28}}</ref>

== Distortion of Marxism ==
Haz described [[Feudalism|feudal]] countries including the [[Ottoman Empire (1299–1922)|Ottoman Empire]], [[Tsardom of Russia (1547–1721)|Tsardom of Russia]], and [[Qing dynasty (1636–1912)|Qing dynasty]] as examples of "[[Actually Existing Socialism|actual socialism]]."<ref>{{Web citation|author=@InfraHaz|newspaper=Twitter|title=Example of Actual Socialism:|date=2022-01-10|url=https://twitter.com/InfraHaz/status/1480351807838699521|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220811223508/https://twitter.com/InfraHaz/status/1480351807838699521|archive-date=2022-08-11|retrieved=2022-08-12}}</ref>

== Ideology ==
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 [[United States imperialism|empire]] in the aftermath of [[WWII]], when [[British]] [[capital]] was used to subvert the American republic through transnational and unconstitutional institutions,<ref>{{News citation|author=Infrared|newspaper=Youtube|title=In Defense of the American Revolution|date=2022-07-04|url=https://youtu.be/yOIzZCnpXaY?t=9975|retrieved=2022-07-20|quote="what most people think of when they think of American imperialism is after World War II...

I make the argument that after World War II you see a merger at best and more realistically a takeover by the architects of the new British empire...[of] the American state so America's you know global system and you know, it's crimes around the world, I mean that is coming from this new British empire like the Iraq war for example..."|archive-url=https://youtu.be/yOIzZCnpXaY?t=9975|archive-date=2022-07-20}}</ref> and taking a heavily unorthodox approach to disseminating ideology, most commonly adopting esoteric jargon like "mecha-[[Tankie|tankies]]" and "[[Stalinism|Stalinist]] Futurism" to distinguish themselves and their positions from what they consider to be the "[[Baizuo]]" and the "synthetic left."<ref>{{News citation|author=Infrared|newspaper=Youtube|title=Rise of the Mecha-Tankies|date=2022-7-19|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPojH2KtLks|retrieved=2022-7-20|quote=[From video description] Mecha-Tankies are finally taking form as the ultimate Infrared hyperstition, which was the original intention of the collective from the very beginning. In today's stream, I will briefly explain and go over my recent article 'on the PatSoc' split to better explain what Mecha-Tankies are, the threat posed by social-democracy, and the recent controversy surrounding productive and unproductive labor.}}</ref>

=== Hostility to planned economies ===
Haz views [[Mao Zedong|Mao Zedong's]] collaboration with the capitalist-imperialist [[United States of America]] during the 1970's as a positive thing. He furthermore is highly critical of the Soviet [[planned economy]] (however, he also claims that the [[People's Republic of China]] is still presently a planned economy, a claim he fails to support with reliable sources).

=== Reformism ===
Haz, during an online debate, claimed that attempting to establish a [[Dictatorship of the proletariat|proletarian dictatorship]] via a [[Revolution|revolutionary action]] was inherently false and undesirable for the simple fact that it is not legal according to a [[Dictatorship of the bourgeoisie|bourgeois government's]] own laws. He further claimed:<blockquote>"Here's what you tell the people: You tell the people [that] you follow the laws, and ''if'' they, the government [of the [[United States of America]]] starts violating its own laws <ref group="note">Ignoring that the government of the United States of America has, ever since it existed, violated it own legal code, via its many genocides, acts of war, exploitation, mass imprisonment of ethic minorites, ect.</ref> and effectively collapses at that point, our [[Liberalism|bourgeois democracy]] collapses, then, as our Founding Fathers<ref group="note">In the context of [[Statesian]] ultranationalist parlance, the "founding fathers" refers to a group of wealthy slave owners and plutocrats who staged a [[Bourgeois revolution]] which created the United States of America.</ref> told us, you have a right to [use revolutionary action]."<ref>{{Web citation|newspaper=Youtube|title=Haz vs Jason Unruhe {{!}} InfraredShow Debate|date=2021-9-25|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sp3SGniPMH4&t=4795s|retrieved=2022-8-7}}</ref></blockquote>Infrared, in a video, actively endorsed a USA Senate Candidate by the name of Diane Sare, a [[reactionary]], [[Christianity|christian]], and [[Nationalism|nationalist]] figure. The justification for this blatant [[Opportunism|right-opportunist]] support for [[Bourgeoisie|bourgeois-liberals]] being that this Senate Candidate was "[[Austerity|rescuing the decaying American economy]]" and "promoting peace & cooperation with [[Russian Federation|Russia]] and [[China]]".<ref>{{Web citation|author=Infrared|newspaper=Youtube|title=Interview With US Senate Candidate Diane Sare|date=2022-8-9|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsL6Bf_Ekgo|retrieved=2022-8-10|quote=''[from video description]'' Diane Sare is running as an independent on the New York November 8th, 2022 midterm ballot running for US Senate. She hopes to take on the two-party duopoly and create a workable platform for rescuing the decaying American economy and promoting peace & cooperation with Russia and China.}}</ref>

=== Settler colonialism ===
Haz rejected indigenous claims to U.S. land and said there was no dispute for U.S. territory between [[Settler colonialism|settlers]] and indigenous peoples.<ref>{{Web citation|author=@InfraHaz|newspaper=Twitter|title=Thread|date=2021-09-09|url=https://twitter.com/InfraHaz/status/1436086573385371649?s=20|quote=Saying America is "Occupied Indigenous Land" is like saying America is "Occupied CHAZ Land." You can't just claim land on the basis of morality and then call it occupied. America isn't, as a whole, disputed territory in any meaningful political sense. Beyond your own morality.}}</ref>

== Slogans and hastags ==

=== ''#CPUSA 2036'' ===
The Infrared community has popularized the [[Twitter]] hashtag and internet meme [[CPUSA 2036]] which describes their aim to take control of the [[Communist Party of the United States of America|CPUSA]], remove its [[Liberal]] component, and win in the 2036 presidential election.<ref>[https://future.fandom.com/f/p/4400000000000244029 "What is Communist Party 2036?" on Fandom]</ref>

=== ''#MAGACommunism'' ===
''see main article: [[MAGACommunism]]''

"MAGACommunism" is a [[Tailism|tailist]] internet slogan commonly promoted by Infrared and other Patriotic socialists. It calls for the political and ideological unification with the highly [[Anti-communist]] and [[reactionary]] [[Trumpism|Trumpist]] movement, which is viewed by Infrared as being, falsely, a "working-class movement" which could aid in defeating the "globalist beast."<ref>{{Web citation|author=Haz Al-Din|newspaper=[[Infrared]]|title=THE RISE OF MAGA COMMUNISM|date=2022-9-18|url=https://showinfrared.substack.com/p/the-rise-of-maga-communism?sd=pf|retrieved=2022-9-22}}</ref>

'''ProleWiki''' is a communist [[:Category:Wikis|wiki]] which has [https://en.prolewiki.org/index.php?title=Topic:X4ygr8pzog88sh7n&topic_showPostId=x4ygr8pzok6b0l5v#flow-post-x4ygr8pzok6b0l5v taken a stance against] [[Patriotic Socialism]] in the United States.

This ideological position can be explained by some administrators residing outside of the United States.

The hostility of ProleWiki towards Caleb Maupin and his Center for Political Innovation, Jackson Hinkle, the Infrared Community and Haz has been a contributing factor for the creation of [[InfraWiki]].

== Description ==
The slogan appeared in August 2022 on [[Twitter]]. Its most notable promoters are [[Jackson Hinkle]] and [[Infrared]], whose rhetoric concerning this slogan has inspired a small online clique of "MAGACommunist" propaganists and trolls to emerge, largely from their respective followers.

While this clique is highly vocal, it has convinced very few people, and remains entirely internet-based. Their social media strategy is to spam content, no matter how nonsensical, to create virality through engagement and the illusion of popularity. It has yet to be organized in an actual political party or have its theory practiced.

MAGACommunism can be compared to [[Strasserism]] due to their mutual opposition to finance capital, "globalists," and their "pro-[[Petty bourgeoisie|small business]]" stance which echoes Strasser's "guild socialism".
