The MCPC was established in 2008 as a reaction to the economic reforms initiated by the ruling Chinese Communist Party in the 1980s under Deng Xiaoping. It is strongly against these reforms 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.[2][3]

Maoist activist Ma Houzhi was arrested in 2009 for organising an MCPC meeting in Chongqing. He was sentenced to ten years in prison and released in 2019.[4]
