But because the main form of struggle is armed struggle and because of the large peasantry and small working class, it is difficult or impossible to master all forms of struggle. Look at Zimbabwe. After years in the bush fighting a guerrilla war, ZANU had to switch to parliamentary and diplomatic work, a sphere with which they had little experience. Further, because of these two reasons, it will be relatively harder after seizing state power to consolidate the revolution although it was relatively easier to get started because the target was clear. The bourgeoisie rules in this country indirectly, by default. As long as no direct political challenge is mounted to their rule, they stay in power. And as long as there is no direct challenge, they tolerate and do not fear economic struggles and struggles for partial gains. The big strike waves of 1953-54 and 1969-70, although bitter, militant struggles which hurt the bourgeoisie economically, did not by any means endanger their rule. Actually the scope of the revolution, its tasks and methods are much broader than this. Seizing state power is only the first step. It is not the end of the revolution, not by a long way. The leadership of the working class, the Communist Workers Party, cannot define the tasks of the revolution in terms of the transitional demands, because these demands are only used to bring the masses in a position to follow and support the Party in seizing power. First, the historical limitations. As stated before, we grew out of the spontaneous movements of the sixties and seventies. Our early members consisted of these advanced elements who were striving for Marxism to answer the burning questions of their day. And because of the need to form a core of professional revolutionaries our work necessarily was focused on winning the existing pool of Marxists to our line. Therefore, at that time we were not well situated in the working class.

To reduce communism to these demands, to equate our communist program for the dictatorship of the proletariat with the partial, transitional demands is to degrade communism. For the Party to equate the two in a revolutionary situation would mean that it could very well lose orientation and be unable to move on to solve the much more complicated problems of continuing the revolution under workers’ rule. The official guidance from Biden’s camp was to keep calm and carry on. The election was over; Democrats would not dignify Trump’s attempt to contrive a debate. They took for granted, or anyway said they did, that the results would be certified and formalized by the usual constitutional means. So if the proletariat has such wonderful capabilities to organize, why does the bourgeoisie not fear these partial struggles? The answer is that they have some very subtle, sophisticated (and for this reason, all the more brutal) means at their disposal to stop the proletariat. Some of the important weapons in their arsenal are the labor aristocracy in the trade unions, misleaders other partial movements and the ma media–particularly radio and TV. And to do this now, to say, “Socialist revolution means death to killer cops,” would really throw us off course. We do use inflammable material for propaganda and agitation. Police murder or any immediate issue can be the starting point for communist agitation and propaganda. But to reduce our propaganda and agitation to “Socialist revolution means death to killer cops” limits our work and in the case of this slogan will turn us into a terroristic sect. Especially now–when we are building up the Party’s forces and the majority of workers and oppressed are open but disoriented–to define communism in terms of killer cops, or gas shortages, or high food prices, or whatever, means depriving the vanguard of the sweep it needs to build itself up. But in between these destabilized periods, the working class is half asleep and the capitalist class effects its brutal dictatorship unchallenged.

40. People that talk during the movie.

This message rippled out beyond the demonstration. This message succeeded in getting out to the whole country. During the week of the Convention and the week prior to it, the capitalists’ main worry was the CWP. The police department tried to box us in and even said they would give us a choice spot to demonstrate. The news media all betrayed their concern with questions like, “What is the CWP up to?” The Party’s task was to bring out to the American people that we are the only effective opposition to the monopoly capitalist class. The Party’s prestige and the masses’ openness to us has increased many times over as a result of our Serve Notice campaign. Engage in Socialist Agitation to Build A Communist Workers Movement

Seeking to overthrow the government is what political

At the same time we must lead pacesetting fights, like the Kokomo action and the Democratic Convention campaign–struggles which establish the Party at the forefront of the working class and which establish its moral authority. I do not mean to be taken figuratively. The president of the United States lost an election and really did try with all his might to keep the winner from replacing him. He did his level best to overthrow our system of government, and tens of millions of Americans marched behind him. But a coup d’état in America had seemed so unlikely a thing, and it was so buffoonishly attempted, that the political establishment had trouble taking it seriously. That was a big mistake. So why did they do it? Why did Kemp and Raffensperger and Van Langevelde accept Biden’s victory—while nearly two-thirds of the U.S. House Republican caucus voted to overthrow the election? Why did Arizona’s Republican governor, Doug Ducey, sign the “certificate of ascertainment” of Biden’s win in his state—while more than a dozen Arizona lawmakers joined legal efforts to throw away results in other states? * Why did state legislators in Pennsylvania not attempt to appoint Trump electors—while signing a letter asking Congress to reject the Biden electors?Operation Paper entailed CIA plans used by CIA military advisors on the ground in Burma to assist Kuomintang incursions into Western China over several years, under the command of General Li Mi, with Kuomintang leadership hoping to eventually retake China, despite opposition from the US State Department. [95] However, each attempted invasion was repelled by the Chinese army. The Kuomintang took control of large swaths of Burma, while the government of Burma complained repeatedly of the military invasion to the United Nations. [96]

This is all a reflection of the American working class waking up from a three decade-long sleep. To be sure, the disorientation is great; but this is an inevitable occurrence when they are just stirring and questioning literally everything. There is no one issue right now to crystallize the masses’ resistance. Everything is the issue. People’s whole lives under capitalism is the issue.I wasted a full face of makeup for this! 49.
