Revolutionary Communist Youth Union (Bolsheviks) denounces State Duma elections as a bourgeois farce

The Revolutionary Communist Youth Union (Bolsheviks), RKSM(b), has denounced Russia’s September 18–20 State Duma elections as a political farce serving the interests of the ruling capitalist class, rejecting both support for the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (CPRF) and called for so-called “protest voting.”

In a statement issued ahead of the elections, the Central Committee of RKSM(b) condemned the ongoing war, which it characterized as imperialist, and its devastating consequences for the working people.
