What’s up with the ACP’s communist branding? (lemmygrad.ml)

It goes without saying that the ACP isn’t remotely communist or socialist whatsoever.

This kind of begs the question: why did they even bother with the communist branding in the first place? Why not just commit to the alternative right? It doesn’t make much sense to me.

Maybe they took inspiration from the CPK/NSDAP’s strategy of LARPing as socialists for the popular support, but it’s not like communism/socialism are exactly popular in the US.

Or have the proletarian heroes at the ACP managed to gaslit themselves into actually, fully and earnestly believing themselves to be communists?

Thoughts?

They aren't a real org they are a psyop. Its a 2 pronged attack on Communism. They scare progressive liberals into thinking Communism is reactionary patriarchy and send them back to the democrat party. Meanwhile they are also mobilizing the disillusioned conservative liberals who aren't already neo-nazis into a party so that when the nazis do coalesce into a single party the acp can ally with them.
