Maoist Communist Party of China

The MCPC was established in 26 December 2008, the birthday of Mao Zedong. On the internet and through leaflets in big cities like Shanghai, the Party distributed a "Letter to the People of the Nation" on 26 December 2008 and January 2009. In the letter, the Party calls the ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP) a "revisionist ruling group", and that the "reform and opening up" policies implemented by the CCP represent a "complete restoration of capitalist line". The article accused the "revisionist CCP" of being a "reactionary organization" that "led wolves into the house and sold out territory, territorial waters, mines, resources, banks, factories, roads, bridges, and national dignity, turning the CCP into a vassal of US imperialism.” The article also criticized Deng Xiaoping of being a "unrepentant capitalist roader", and claimed the MCPC uses Mao Zedong Thought as its guide to action. It called on Chinese people to overthrow the "fake Communist Party" and also turn against the "reactionary elites" who signed the dissident Charter 08.{{Cite news |date=31 January 2009 |title=毛派另立共产党?反政府也反宪章 |trans-title=Did Maoists set up a new Communist Party?

The MCPC is strongly against economic reforms pursued by the CCP which have, according to the party, "restored capitalist social conditions". As such, it seeks to overthrow the "traitorous revisionist ruling bloc within the Chinese Communist Party" by initiating a "second socialist revolution" to re-establish the dictatorship of the proletariat. The ultimate objective of MCPC is to achieve communism.{{cite news |title= |script-title=zh:中国出了个中国毛泽东主义共产党 |url=https://www.rfa.org/mandarin/yataibaodao/mao-01302009234757.html |work=Radio Free Asia |language=zh-cn |access-date=21 November 2018 |archive-date=24 July 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190724123505/https://www.rfa.org/mandarin/yataibaodao/mao-01302009234757.html |url-status=live }}
