Editing Center for Political Innovation

The '''Center for Political Innovation''' ('''CPI''') is a LARP group founded by [[Caleb Maupin]].<ref>{{Web citation|newspaper=Center for Political Innovation|title=Home|url=https://cpiusa.org/|retrieved=2022-8-21}}</ref>

== Ideological line ==
The CPI claimed to be focused on the construction of "Socialism with American Characteristics" and is one of the reasons for the growth of the stupid [[Patriotic Socialism]] meme spread by libtards. Primarily focused on distributing pamphlets on the sidewalk, marching in small numbers and selling Caleb's books, CPI synthesizes Marcyite Trotskyism with some of the Schiller Institute's ideas. 

==== What does CPI do? ====

CPI spends its time, energy and resources going into the woods in forest retreats led by Caleb Maupin. It remains a mystery what exactly this accomplishes, or how that could possibly be an efficient use of actual money, time and energy. 

==Conferences==
The CPI held various conferences throughout its existence, some with notable guests. 

=== Austin: Free America From the Neoliberal Empire===
On March 12th 2022, CPI held a conference in Austin, Texas. Guests included Jackson Hinkle, Haz of Infrared, Daniel Burke, Peter Coffin & Ms. ACD, [[Nick Brana]] of the [[Movement for a People's Party]]

==Scandal & Dissolution==
On August 19, 2022, dissenters from within the think tank accused the leader Caleb Maupin of sexual abuse and coercion against women in the organization, along with other acts of cult-like behavior towards members.<ref>{{Web citation|newspaper=Medium|title=Caleb Maupin’s Former Comrades Speak Out, His Abuses Must Stop!|date=2022-8-19|url=https://medium.com/@cpimembersspeakout/caleb-maupins-former-comrades-speak-out-his-abuses-must-stop-4167bc1c2c|retrieved=2022-8-21}}</ref> 

What happened was that Caleb was asking some members to spank him, which they, for whatever bizarre reason, willingly obliged in doing.

While Caleb Maupin is a complete weirdo and pervert, nobody forced CPI members to spank him. They did it as willing adults. And why did they? Because they, too, are weirdos and perverts. It's the only logical explanation.

==Re-founding==
On November 6th, 2022, Caleb Maupin announced his return<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHAZ5fidyuo&t</ref>, addressing the past allegations and announcing the re-foundation of CPI.
