The Namorese Revolutionary Liberationist Movement (NRLM, Намора Коминджикфанджуйи Йандонг) is a small political party in Namor that claims to be the legitimate successor to Yunglang Antelope and advocates for a return to what it claims to be the true brand of Liberationism. It is currently led by author and internet personality Bao Ding.
History
After the NMR 2315 Namorese political crisis, there remained self-proclaimed "anti-revisionists" (commonly referred to as Kiangites) who viewed Gelai Antelope as a revisionist and saw his reforms that were announced in the 15th Party Congress as acts of sabotage against the revolution. The Kiangites had supported deposed President-General Kiang Ssxu during the political crisis and regarded the ascension of Antelope to the presidency as a reactionary seizure of power. In the aftermath of the crisis, Kiangites were removed from positions in the government and Liberationist Party. Some Kiangites were expelled from the Liberationist Party altogether.
In NMR 2325, the Revolutionary Committee of the Liberationist Party of Namor (RCLPN) was founded as the professed legitimate heir of late leader Yunglang Antelope. The RCLPN registered to run in the NMR 2325 legislative election, but was forced to change its name to the Namorese Revolutionary Liberationist Movement to avoid confusions with the Liberationist Party. The Liberationist Party declared itself to be unaffiliated with the NRLM and barred its members from being involved in the NRLM.
During the NMR 2340s, the NRLM experienced a brief increase in membership as some disillusioned members of the Liberationist Party defected from the party and joined the NRLM. In response to the outflow of members, the Liberationists changed its policy and allowed NRLM members to enter the party and run for party leadership. The NRLM subsequently allowed its members to "rejoin" the party before the realization of the three-point platform. In doing so, it hoped to change the Liberationist Party from within so that the party may someday implement the platform.
The NRLM severed ties with the Liberationists following the 24th Party Congress in NMR 2363 in which the party adopted an "anti-right strategy" and encouraged members to vote any candidate, Liberationist or otherwise, so long as the candidate is not a New Democrat. The NRLM accused the party of "capitulating to the Democratic Socialists" and encouraged members to cast a blank vote rather than voting for Kaitlyn Khan or Txo Antelope. Initially, the Liberationists did not respond to the NRLM's act, but after the election in which Txo Antelope underperformed with only around 10% of the vote, it expelled the NRLM.
Although the Liberationists rolled back the "anti-right strategy" in the 26th Congress of NMR 2373, leader Antelope Shohai expressed no interest in allowing the NRLM back in the party. The NRLM has nominated its own presidential candidate both in NMR 2373 and in NMR 2378. In both elections, it failed to receive over 1% of the popular vote.
Ideology
The NRLM's core ideology is contained in the Three-Point Platform:
- Exonerate President-General Kiang Ssxu and repudiate the reactionary coup initiated by Gelai Antelope in NMR 2315
- Vindicate the Green Fever and acknowledge its role in eliminating reactionary elements
- Repeal the constitution of NMR 2320 and restore the constitution of NMR 2290
