===Party for Socialism and Liberation===
 +
The [[Marxist-Leninist]] pro-[[China]], [[Iran]], [[North Korea]], [[Cuba]], [[Venezuela]], and [[Russia]], [[Party for Socialism and Liberation]] has chapters in about 30 states. They also seek to exploit the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis Police, referring to this time in history as an “absolutely critical period” to impose their vision of a [[communist]] [[revolution]]:
 +
{{quotebox|“The police will always fulfill their role of being shock troops for white supremacy and capitalism as long as it exists in this racist state.
 +
 +
“In this absolutely critical period, we sharpen our resolve to build organizations capable of waging militant [[class struggle]] against the racist state and their ruling class. … Amidst the deep crisis, the racist killings of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery in Brunswick, Georgia, Breonna Taylor in Louisville, Ky. and Sean Reed in Indianapolis, Ind., make it clear that the protests and fight back must continue and intensify.”<ref>https://www.liberationnews.org/psl-statement-justice-for-george-floyd/</ref>}}

===Revolutionary Communist Party===

 +
The [[Revolutionary Communist Party]] used the death of George Floyd at the hands of [[Minneapolis]] Police to call for “a movement for an actual [[revolution]].” They issued communique #6 titled, “Police murder after murder after murder… To YOU who are sick and tired of the madness, and ready to be part of a movement for an ACTUAL REVOLUTION”:
 +
{{quotebox|“If you’re sick of watching video after video of these murders by police … you need to … join with a movement for an actual revolution, to prepare for a time when it will be possible to lead millions to bring this system down, and replace it with a new society based on the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America.”<ref>https://revcom.us/a/649/communique-6-police-murder-after-murder-after-murder-en.html</ref>}}

[[Project Veritas]] infiltrated Rose City Antifa. In an undercover video, Antifa instructors teach [[white]] people how to maim and disable people.<ref>https://twitter.com/JamesOKeefeIII/status/1268527969586360320?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw</ref>
 +
 +
A Project Veritas video also introduces Andy Zee, an organizer for Refuse Fascism, a project of the Revolutionary Communist Party, talking about a possible meet-up with [[Democrat]] donor [[Tom Steyer]].
 +
{{quotebox|“I don’t know if we took the meeting today. We were meeting with his main advisor on impeachment...Tom Steyer’s been retweeting some of our stuff."}}
 +
Zee said the group was hoping to raise $2M to $5M to organize massive protests in major cities against President Trump.  “You’re actually going to sustain millions of people, hundreds of thousands on the streets in certain cities,” Zee explained.<ref>https://pjmedia.com/video/debra-heine/2018/08/01/okeefe-catches-antifa-fight-instructors-teaching-activists-how-to-inflict-pain-on-their-targets-n91391</ref>
 +
 +
===Workers World Party===
 +
Monica Moorehead of the [[Workers World Party]] (WWP) wrote an article May 28, 2020 titled, ''Against police violence and capitalism, to rebel is justified:''
 +
{{quotebox|“Workers World salutes all the brave protesters in [[Minneapolis]], currently ground zero against police terror. We also salute those activists in [[Los Angeles]], [[Memphis]] and other cities who are organizing protests and braving the [[pandemic]] to be in the streets or in car caravans to show solidarity with the demand: Justice for George Floyd and all victims of police violence.”}}
 +
Moorehead goes on to quote WWP founder Sam Marcy’s defense of the 1992 Los Angeles riots—in which 63 people died:
 +
{{quotebox|“In times when the [[bourgeoisie]] is up against the wall, when the masses have risen suddenly and unexpectedly, the bourgeoisie gets most lyrical in abjuring violence. It conjures up all sorts of lies and deceits about the unruliness of a few among the masses as against the orderly law-abiding many.
 +
 +
“[[Marxism]] here again cuts through it all. The Marxist view of [[violence]] distinguishes between the violence of the oppressors as against the responsive violence of the masses. Just to be able to formulate it that way is a giant step forward, away from disgusting bourgeois praise for nonviolence. It never occurs to any of them to show that the masses have never made any real leap forward with the theory of nonviolence. Timidity never made it in history.”<ref>https://www.workers.org/2020/05/49008/</ref>}}
