This class is the natural ally of the working class and has the same enemies- the ruling class. Both capitalism and the State are tools of the ruling class. They are anti- democratic structures that out the needs of the few ahead of the needs of the many. Racism can only be finally defeated with destruction of capitalism and the State. We believe that the only people who can achieve these tasks are the working class and the working peasants.
Class struggle is central because it is the struggle of the majority- the working and poor people.
The ruling class and the working class have totally opposite interests. Only the working class and peasantry can create a free society because only these classes are not based on exploitation. The majority of people are working class and therefore have a direct interest in opposing capitalism and the State. That is why most people are actually engaged in class struggle, through actions like strikes, squatting unofficially, land invasions, rent boycotts, getting back at the boss etc. The class struggle is central because our experience under capitalism forces us to organise as a class.
