Lenin:

Due to settler-Imperialism, USian workers have many transitional ties to the settler-petty-bourgeoisie. The CPUSA is currently speculating on stolen land to fund their retirements, this contradiction runs deep. Inflated wages from Imperialism, to the point where very few workers are exploited for surplus-value, allow workers of oppressor and oppressed nations to speculate on land ("housing market"). Resistance from oppressed nations is suppressed with the world's largest prison system as well as homelessness and vigilante killings. Mass Incarceration is a jobs program for herrenvolk/settlers (guard wages are into the 6 figures, guard unions are the richest and most powerful in the country). In short, Labor Aristocracy (in the flavor of Settler-Colonialism), it's not something mainstream USian Communists are willing to talk about, because they have brought with them Revisionism into the workers movement. Also 98% of US agricultural land is owned by white-settler Kulaks.
