Reading in the link, KKE remains committed to the vision of Marxist-Leninist revolution. A lot of references to our modern notion of a little 'capitalism' is OK, and the still edgy notion (because of 20th century excesses?) of the "dictatorship of the proletariat" as the transitional bridge from capitalism to socialism.

Interesting and strong critiques of 'the left' and 'progressivism' and 'other' communist parties supporting socialized capitalism.

The model is all there. Just a question of when the people have had enough.
