Party Platform
Anti-Capitalism: The RLP sees capitalism as oppressive, coercive, and exploitative, and believes the hierarchy it creates flies in the face of equality.
Anti-Imperialism: The RLP is opposed to all forms of imperialism, whether that be economic or militaristic forms of imperialism.
Anti-Fascism: If the RLP cannot convince a fascist, we will acquaint their head with the pavement.
Solidarity with all leftists: The RLP stands in solidarity with all leftist parties and groups around the world.
No party structure: The RLP allows all members to have an equal amount of power and say and has no hierarchal structure. All decisions are reached by consensus or, if there is no consensus, a vote.
Class independence: The RLP strives to see the working class break free from underneath the yoke of the capitalist class, and end the profiteering the capitalists enjoy from the exploitation of the workers.
Direct Democracy: The RLP believes in the inherent worth and equality of all people. Any decision should be reached with everyone’s input. Leaders and backroom deals are antithetical to the RLP.
Workers’ rights: The RLP seeks to uphold and defend the rights of the working class, those that generate value by means of their labor. Among these rights are the ability for workers to organize and democratically control the workplace.
Environmentalism: The RLP believes humanity occupies a stewardship role in relation to the environment and as such seeks to maintain harmony with the environment through preservation and conservation efforts. The RLP also seeks to reverse the exploitative and destructive effects of capitalism on the environment, which belongs to all people.
Liberation: The RLP believes in the inherent worth and equality of all people. We don't advocate a negative peace which is the absence of tension, but a positive peace which is the presence of justice, and advocate movements such as feminism and anti-racism. [1]
