Why We Are Communists

Our current movement, that of the communist section of the left, has been outpaced & stopped by the reformism that is a poison to liberation ideologies. We are presented with a simple question: Why are you a communist?

To that, we must respond accordingly, through the lens of the oppressed. No big worded sesquipedalian word choices to confuse the people. Communists seek the liberation of the working class with no compromise. We are not nationalistic in the sense we express our own national interests over smaller & weak countries. What we want is the importance & majority of industries to be nationalized, of course, with the control of the workers in the form of unions & councils. Unions & councils electing representatives of the workers will give a voice & more power than the capitalists & bosses & state.

There must be no compromise. We see it essential to remove the tyrannical position of power from Wall Street fat cats from the workplace in the form of bosses to owners of vast quantities of private land, soldiers of capital striking down upon people’s protests, to the state by senators, governors, presidents, congressmen, all serving the interests of the rich & capitalist owning class because they are on the payroll. They bow down to the capitalists, those in state positions. Each reform they seek to implement is created in order not to anger the working class enough for a reaction-based cause.

We see now, with the Black Lives Matter movement, that Democrats to a small few of Republicans express their willingness to reform the blood-thirsty soldiers of capital. They seek not to abolish the extreme extrajudicial murder committed by such but to minimize it to an extent of little to no news coverage as to not anger the people. Even the soldiers of capital try to silence the media which pushes these useless reforms, with reporters being shot during protests.

Kamala Harris, a retired general of the soldiers of capital, is infamous for arresting & detaining working-class mothers & other parental figures to jail for little reasonable cause. She was, no, still is a brutal tyrant who is anti-working class. A tyrant against the poor black folk which makes a majority of their already small minority status. Crime is seen as an inherently black folk subject. We see that racial bias has poisoned the minds of Americans. The soldiers of capital are the ones who regularly express their racial biases. Beatings to most controversial the murder of black folk, but not only black folk, indigenous folk, Latino folk, & white folk, all beat due to their inherent desire for blood & the feeling of power.

Alas, the soldiers of capital are not the only ones who express racial bias. Liberal & Conservative media giants regularly indulge in this depravity. Whether it be Tucker Carlson dog-whistling to white supremacists with his scapegoating of foreigners, to CNN refusing to call riots caused by a majority of whites a riot, or spreading sinophobic bigoted lies toward Asian countries. The liberal politician is the quiet imperialist, the conservative politician is the boisterous imperialist.

Racism is useful not to us but to those in power. The 1% most importantly. Those who fund our politicians & control our workplaces. Unlike the white supremacist & alt-right movement that is cancer to our current political climate, we do not blame racial groups.

Why should it matter if a Jew is a rich man, or a black a rich man, or a white a rich man? They are still traitors to the working class. They gained that wealth through exploitation. No matter how innovative a man can be they still rely on working-class people to build their dreams. So what does capitalism give this “innovator”? The right to own people through the use of wages. The worker is below the boss & the capitalist owner. Why must that be? When the worker does more work! It is in their title! What does a boss do? Boss around yet gets paid more! We are not proposing we all be paid the same, that is an anti-communist myth stemming from the lack of knowledge of Marxian Socialism, we propose we all get paid through the labor we produce. It is basic Marxism.

Lincoln said himself:

“Labor is prior to, & independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, & could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, & deserves much the higher consideration.”- Message to the U.S. Congress, 3 December 1861.

Of course, he said afterward that capital has its rights as well, which was to be noted.

Onto the principles of socialists & communists.

The state to be used as an instrument to serve the interests of the working class & the working class only. Workers owning the means of production, that is the physical & nonfinancial input in producing goods. i.e workers owning the factory through unionization, teachers & community through democratic means owning the schools. The right to food, a job, speech, vote, a decent home, quality education, & the right to own their labor socially community & union based wise. A strong government in check constantly to express the interests of the workers & to suppress the capitalist class during the socialist transitional period. Soldiers of capital abolished & replaced by soldiers of labor through workers militias to ensure the right to the freedom of the workers. Freedom to criticize the government when they mess up. Strong accountability to representatives indulged in corrupt activity. Removal of unjust laws targeting the poor. If there is a fine, it is most likely anti-poor. Equal rights to all working-class people. Regardless of race, religion, nationality, & financial status. The well-being of the people being the most important & essential factor in the decision-making of the state. Unity of all working members, white collar, pink collar, blue-collar, orange collar, green collar, scarlet collar, black collar, & the grey collars ensured a rightful rest & leisure for their aging selves.

The liberty that is preached most commonly in patriotic media is nothing more than a lie to give an illusion of a republic of the people. More than half of state & federal laws are carried out through the funding of big business/capitalists through the legal transaction of lobbyists & the electoral college. Those in power control many factors into the thinking process of the people they control. Far worse than Orwell could ever envision, that profit & state mix so well in their similar interests to dictate the masses under capitalist dominance.

In Russia, the second most popular party is the Communist Party of the Russian Federation. Showing that socialism when implemented gives a higher quality of life. The lies we are presented, the western narrative, did not triumph in the nations under socialism. But it sure did here, in the nations under capitalism. The capitalists will not give you socialism & will try their very best to hide it away or present a perverted social fascist definition of socialism. For example Alexandira Cortez’s & Bernie Sanders Democratic “Socialism”.

This goes to why Bernie is popular & has gained much support. He presents a labor movement that has many good reforms the people want. What Bernie & the Democratic Socialists refuse or barely acknowledge is that Democrats & Republicans are two wings of the same imperialist eagle. As said before, the liberal politician is the quiet imperialist & the conservative politician is the boisterous imperialist. What Bernie & AOC are are what the contemporary Marxist movement calls utopian socialists.

In the late 18th century to early 20th-century utopian socialism was a title to give to socialists who believed everyone could huddle into communes & convince the capitalists in power to give it up or gradually give up their tyranny. Utopian socialists could also be called social fascists based on the Third Internationales definition given.

Social fascists, similar to fascists themselves by how they sprang to power in Germany & Italy, are smooth talkers to the public. Under the pretense of socialism or for the average Joe, but each plan is funded by, you guessed it, capitalists.

Marxian socialists & communists reject fascism of any sort. The liberation of the working class, or what we call the people, is the most important goal for us to achieve. We refuse concessions & call upon workers of the nation to be aware of their exploited situation. For now, in the author’s opinion, class consciousness is one of the first things that needs to be common in America. When one has finally gotten the flow of class consciousness, it is very much recommended to read Lenin, Marx, Stalin, William Z. Foster, Mao Tse Tung, Micheal Parenti, & contemporary Marxist authors. As they say, do not judge a book by its cover.

You will see then, the true nature of what communism is & its goals. You will learn that these men & women of history from the past or unfolding are not against your class or seeking to establish dictatorships of one man or of the rich, but seeking to liberate people like you! Workers!

If they are successful in de-propagandizing your mind, it is reasonable next to spread class consciousness to your neighbors, friends, & families. Every person must know the specter haunting America, the specter of socialism.
