We Must Fight!

category international | anti-capitalism | opinion/analysis author Friday March 31, 2006 19:46author by Socialist Report this post to the editors

Do you want revolution or don't you?

All societies are divided into classes that are "oppressed" and those who oppress them. Capitalism is no different, even though its revolutions may have instituted democratic political structures designed to enfranchise the "oppressed." For the very idea of democracy in a society where private property exists, according to the Manifesto, is an illusion: "The executive of the modern state is but a committee for managing the common affairs of the whole bourgeoisie." In other words, democratic elections are a sham. Civil war is the political answer to humanity's problems: "Workers of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but your chains." The solution to all fundamental social problemsto war, to poverty, to economic inequality lies in a conflict that will rip society apart and create a new revolutionary world from its ruins. This is the enduring message of the Manifesto, and why its believers have left such a legacy of human freedom in their wake as they set about to create a progressive future.

Comrade Castro and Kim Jong IL today are the remaining burning flames of the revolution which refuse to flicker and die. While they remain the dream of Marx will not die. Cuba and North Korea are societies in transition to pure communism - how long this transition may take is an open ended question.
The setbacks in Europe, Russia, China and worldwide were due to the premature and artificial attempts of wrongheaded leaders who misunderstood the dialectic progression of revolutionary Marxism. The continued survival of Castro and Kim demonstrate that their experiments however are working - they have eliminated the class enemies of the bourgeoise.

However their revolutions remain under threat from the bourgeoise capitalists especially in the US who in their desperate death rattle make war as their economies flounder under the weight of their unsustainable systems and alienation of their workers. Why?
Because we in the West are not pulling our revolutionary weight!
Where are the Red Army Faction gone? Disbanded!
Where are the Red Brigades? Disbanded!
Action Direct?!
ETA?!
IRA?!

Instead we have the pathetic ALF!
Animal Liberation Front?
It is people not animals who need liberation!
As billions of PEOPLE survive on less than a dollar a day you are trying liberate animals INSTEAD??????

Instead we have spoilt college kids with rich parents to bail them out and pay for their fat cat lawyers indulging in recreational vandalism in the name of marxism!!

we dont need a few borken windows and spray can slogans?

WE NEED CLASS WAR!

If you need money for the struggle? ROB BANKS!

If you want to defeat the bourgeoise? KILL THEM!

You want to control the means of production? TAKE IT BACK!
