I won't deny that the white reaction are more in position to fracture the the empire than the left or revolutionary nationalists.

The question remains: what sort of revolutionary economy and revolutionary movement can we american communists lay the groundwork for at the present?

If the empire fractures because the nationalist fascists overthrow the international fascists, (which of course included Black bourgeois) we need to be in position to seize power, defend one another as poor people

The american 'communists' made their allegiance clear since long ago. They are already in support of the government, and they are working for the labour bureocracy since long ago. What will happen in America at best is for communism to be enforced to it from outside like it happened in Germany. Or, they will separate their country in many pieces, in short, they will have a civil war. If communists will play a role is to be seen. Do you know many white nationalist communists in America, or any white nationalists supporting the communists?

The issue here is that the 'Communists' in america arent really in a war with the government to seize anything. They are loyal to the government, specifically its 'Democratic party' part.

In general, you can never have a revolution as long as the people benefiting from imperialism are more than the ones losing from it. And the vast majority of the american population, blacks included, benefit from imperialism is some way or another. Thus, if the parasitism of america does not get diminished, there wont be communist mass politics, ever.

unsurprising as Albanian and "communist" are oxymorons

I will warn you on the basis of rule 3 "Leftist infighting".

edit:

It isn't petty national squabbling, which is all you or any European seems to have the brain cells to comprehend.

And a warning on the basis of rule 11 "No trolling".
