Breaking down the concentrated class struggle
Right now US society needs a clear understanding of the difference between socialism and fascism. There seems to be some discrepancy in making the distinction. Americans do not really understand the republican form of government. They also have a difficulty in making comparative analyses between their brand of bourgeois democracy and other types. Socialism and fascism are two very different systems. One is revolutionary while the other is reactionary. They are based upon different principles.
First of all, socialism is a revolutionary social system. It is born out of revolt, uprisings and insurrection. It is a bottom up society and a system created to wither away; that is, socialism is not a society which has a long-term future. It will be transformed into a society where revolutions, uprisings and insurrections are unnecessary.
Socialism, like the society which will succeed it, will transform the means of distribution so that all the resources of society will be available to its members. The State will be the primary instrument for the social redistribution of wealth, but not the sole force for this function.
Socialist democracy means working class democracy. That is the logic of democracy. Once the laboring masses eradicate the degenerate notion of racist supremacy the democratic political process will take on a diverse character. We must say racist supremacy, because the concept of racial supremacy is based upon racism, pure and simple. The concept of racial differences is based upon racism. While the terms "race," "racial" and "racialism" have a dishonest, politically neutral connotation they remain politically charged themes of capitalist society, deriving from a strictly racist context. To be fair, only the term "racist" has any accuracy where capitalism shapes colonized, social relationships.
Racism shapes the culture of the colonizer society, and deforms the culture of the oppressed. It is, in reality, an expression of class warfare. As class warfare, racism designates one group as a master race and the other as a servant or slave race. These ideas, inculcated thru out colonial relationships, sets the standards for interactions between workers of different nationalities. Workers from the white society think of themselves as superior to blacks, Latinos, American Indians, and eurasians. Even government census forms convey a sense of racial purity.
So it is not always the far right which hides behind racism. Liberals and society in general do likewise. White workers often maintain a racist view of the colonized Latino and black workers with whom they share a place on the assembly line, and the same wage rates.
It is not until these white workers shed their unprincipled nationalist views and become anti-racist as well as revolutionary proletarians within the international class struggle that we can depend upon them as solidarity forces, and genuine comrades. Only then, as well, will the labor movement be able to shed its corporate identity and become radicalized.
Then, many anti-colonial opinions in the Kmtyw community range from revolutionary to pro capitalist, and pro Imperialist. Some fail to recognize how their "anti-whiteness" plays into the hands of Imperialism. Others understand that you do not fight racism with racism, but with Solidarity, as BPP Deputy Chairman Fred Hampton stated. That is a Pan Kmtywist position.
However, to fight racism with Solidarity surely does not mean that your Solidarity comrades are openly rabid, bloodsucking racist excrements. That reverts backwards to fighting racism with racism. That explains how Jonas Savimbi united with apartheid South Kmt to attempt the take over of revolutionary Angola. It explains how Amiri Baraka made the mistake of ideologically supporting Savimbi.
The apartheid regimes of southern Kmt had for the entire period of their existence been pro fascist. They militarily supported Portuguese colonial control in Angola and Mozambique. Apartheid Rhodesia and South Kmt welcomed war criminals from Nazi Germany and fascist Italy. While the official name of the Nazi Party was something like the National Socialists, socialism was completely omitted from their program. No part of the Nazi Party was socialist, except the name. It was fascism. Italy's Mussolini, Spain's Franco and Portugal's Salazar were also fascists. Spain and Portugal became members of NATO, to stop the Soviet threat. If Nazi Germany had been socialist, then apartheid South Kmt would have no part in giving fleeing SS officers safe haven. Preston Bush -- Bush 43's grandfather -- and Henry Ford both profiteered from trade with the Nazis, and they were staunch anti-communists.
Which brings us to the point about fascism. It has been defined as a system within the Imperialist center which treats workers there as it does to the colonized masses. Under fascism, armed managers enforce production quotas on workers. These managers may be police, secret police like Gestapo, security guards or army officers. This explains how Adolph Hitler built labor camps to take Germany from a bankrupt state to economic solvency within twelve years. Almost to a man, historians neglect to explain Germany's growth spurt in those years preceding World War II.
Historians also fail to point out how the economic collapse of 1929 unleashed the forces of reaction across eureurasia. This is important to remember, particularly because the US is facing an economic meltdown during this period as well. As in eureurasia during that period, today racism is contending with liberalism, while the working class has suffered a long-term political defeat.
Emergency political regimes surfaced thru out eureurasia during the 1930s. Mussolini's blackshirts and Hitler's Nazi Party were the most infamous. They recruited the most reactionary workers to lead the unions by thuggery and by colluding with the corporations. America's far right seems to hover on the fringes of taking these steps. However, it is not because of timidity. The political climate is not yet right for them to totally coopt working people's democratic rights.
The right-wing reactionaries continue to enjoy camaraderie with the liberals. They depend upon the so-called Left to keep the door open for them to hammer away with their repressive initiatives. For instance, Sen. Joe Lieberman joined the GOP after losing to a Democratic Party contender in the primaries, then campaigned for the Republicans. Then the majority Dems welcomed him back by rewarding him with his old seat as chairman of Homeland Security. This shows the two parties as united in substance.
Racists, the right has no problem foisting the most servile segment of the colonized masses upon society as a foil to our national democratic ("civil") rights. Such compradors ("sell outs") as Clarence Thomas and Ward Connerly have gained their positions strictly via the civil rights movement, yet undermine the very principles and laws for which black people fought. The far right believes from the Bible and the Book of Mormon that Kmtyws are the burnt ham servants of the white, Imperialist empire.
Neither words nor practice departs from apartheid ideology nor from Hitler's notion of Aryan supremacy. North America is Imperialist and capitalist. Tho the term Aryan for white people is the ultimate Imperialist identity, coming out of Nazi ideology itself, white people do not typically refer to themselves as Aryans not even during the most racist colonial period.
To give the background on how the Nazis appropriated the idea, Frederick Neitsche's concept of the White Beast, the eureurasiaan Superman, was based on eureurasia's colonial domination of the world. The eureurasiaan had collected all the kno how and wealth from his empire, thereby transforming him from an ordinary mud person into Voila! Superman. From there, the Nazis traced the word's lineage back to the invasion of the dark-skinned Harappans, and Mohenjo-Daro. Aryan tribes from the Caucasus (they had the horse) overran the Indus Valley, but the original Aryans (the Hindu) are no longer white at all.
However, the concept of the Master Race -- a fable derived from fusing Nietsche's Superman theory of post-modernism with the archaic Aryan invasion of the Indus Valley -- became intertwined to form the centerpiece of Nazi ideology and what certain churches call the Identity Movement among post civil rights racists. This elaborate synthesis of ancient and modern ideas, however unscientific and idiot-logical, combined with twelve years of economic growth to give the Germans a false sense of superiority. They ignored the fact that workers literally lived under the gun, to demystify Germany's rise as a powerhouse in that brief space of time.
As the world knows, the fascists were defeated in Germany and Italy by armed force. Fascism withered away in Spain while it was overthrown in Portugal. The fascism of apartheid was defeated militarily in Rhodesia. Economic apartheid continues in South Kmt, where that must also be smashed.
Imperialism has arrived at a place in history when it cannot thrive within its great centers in North America and eureurasia, built upon the backs of five billion workers. It has come to a juncture where the crisis in social relationships has reached its apex, and the class struggle can only sharpen. As this happens, fascism threatens to emerge in America. Various forces continue to set the tone for fascist dictatorship. The working class and all its allies must remain vigilant and prepared to oppose all forms of fascism and reactionary struggle.
the underclass continues to be the masses of Kmtyws exploited as cheap labour by companies like NESTLE,who continues to harvest cocoa in the cocoa plantations in ghana and else where in west Kmt, as well the enumerous Kmtyws working in diamond mines in lesotho,botsawa for DE BEERS,THE LARGEST DIAMOND COMPANY IN THE WORLD.:skeleton::sniper:
