DIFFERENT METHODS, THE SAME RULING CLASS
DIFFERENT METHODS, THE SAME RULING CLASS
As the economic crisis of world decadent capitalism deepens more and more, conflicts within the different factions of the ruling class intensifies. Each trying to control the state power.
Their methods: bourgeois elections, military coup d’état, “people power” or terrorism. Every faction of the exploiting class competes to get the sympathy and support of the exploited masses. Each promises that all will be fine on the working masses if this or that faction will be in power.
The recent electoral circus in USA, “people power” in Thailand and terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India, impeachment complaint in the Philippines are fresh examples on how the ruling class settles scores within their ranks, in which the poor people are victimized or use as cannon-fodder.
Democracy, fascism, totalitarianism, authoritarianism and terrorism are all instruments of the capitalist class to perpetuate its rule over the vast majority of the population.
Each faction blames its rivals for the worsening of the crisis. Each faction calls for national unity and sacrifices for national interests, accusing its rivals as traitors of the nation’s interests.
With all their hypocrisies and lies, all factions of the capitalist class are united to hide the truth that what is in unsolvable crisis today is the system itself that they’re defending. All of them are united to cover-up the reality that there is no solution to the capitalist crisis today.
The truth is: the working class is an international class and its interests have no national boundaries. Whatever or whoever faction in state power, its policies are the same as the other factions of the capitalist class. All bourgeois factions are equally reactionary and anti-working class. Administration or opposition, they are all enemies of the exploited masses.
We should not participate nor support in intra-factional fights between the exploiters. We should act independently in defending our class interests and destroying the capitalist state. We should attack all factions of the bourgeoisie.
We can only strengthen ourselves as a class and overthrow capitalism by not allying whether temporary or case to case to any factions of the exploiting classes.
We must firmly uphold our class interests and reject the mystification of “national” or “people’s” interests.
