Hello this isnt an ideolgy but a collection of thoughts and beleifs i hold
Why we oppose anarchism
Among the socialist movement, there is a section who proclaims themselves to be ‘anti authoritarian’ demanding the immediate end to the state. Marxists also wish an end to the state so one may ask why would the marxist oppose the anarchist. It is simple. The state is an instrument of class rule. Thus when class is abolished (and by extension class rule) the state will fall with it. However, unlike the anarchist, the marxist acknowledges class and private property cannot be abolished in an instant. Only the revisionist governments have ever hastened to the immediate abolition of private property (their misunderstanding of marxism withstanding) and of course they were unable to accomplish their task as the bureaucracy allowed for state property to become private. There will be a period during and after the revolution is successful, when private property and the bourgeois are still intact. Now when we go to this we ask what is the state. It is an instrument of class rule to opress the other classes. It is only logical then, that the proletariat must, as marx put it, give the state a revolutionary and transitory form, as they arise to the position of ruling class. The destruction of the bourgeois state and the creation of a temporary workers state is one of the most important aims of the workers movement. If, as Marx put it, the workers were to ‘lay down their arms and abolish the state’ this would lead to chaos and the bourgieouse would have no trouble making a quick work of them. Thus it is necessary that for a peroid of time, the workers must use the state before casting it into the museum of the old society.
The question of the nation and socialism
Within the socialist movement, there are two positions on the nation. The first dismiss national liberation entirely believing it is bourgeoise, and the international socialist movement can lift these oppressed nations to the step of no nation in one fell swoop. The other, believes that national liberation is a proletarian thing, and we must support it in all cases even in the most small nations. In reality, marxists recognise that national liberation is indeed bourgeoise. However that does not mean marxists should oppose it. The socialist international movement can only take place among independent bourgeoise nations.
‘An international movement of the proletariat is possible only among independent nations. The little bit of republican internationalism between 1830 and 1848, was grouped around France which was destined to free Europe. Hence it increased French chauvinism in such a way as to cause the world-liberating mission of France and with it France’s native right to be in the lead to get in our way every day even now. (The Blanquists present a caricature of this view, but it is still very strong also among Malon and company.) Also in the International the Frenchmen considered this point of view as fairly obvious. Only historical events could teach them – and several others also – and still must teach them daily that international cooperation is possible only among equals.
So long as Poland is partitioned and subjugated, therefore, neither a strong socialist party can develop in the country itself, nor can there arise real international intercourse between the proletarian parties in Germany, etc, with other than émigré Poles.’
The entire international movement is based of cooperation between these nations. However that does not mean marxists support national liberation without any reservations. It is a bourgiouse phenomenon and we have no place for nationalist sentiments with the international socialist movement even of those historically oppressed nations. Not to mention marxists do not have much sympathy for the The ml blindly supports national liberation despite these things. In conclusion the marxist will support national liberation, but not blindly and not because it thinks its proletarian, but because its nescary for the international movement.
Reform or Revolution
From the birth of the socialist movement there has always been a diseased and rooting section of it that has somehow taken prominence.This is the idea that capitalist socieity can be reformed. That capitalism can peacefully move towards socialism and that socialism is its extension its natural successor. Originally it was a utopian movement, however, where it is most dangerous is where it takes a ‘Marxist’ form. Distorting the words of marx and engels to destroy all hopes of socialism. However there is one obstacle the reformist will find on this road, and that is the question of the state. Thankfully, marx and engels realised their errors about the state and concluded that the workers must smash the bourgeoise state and create a revolutionary and transitionary workers state in its place. Engels was often claimed by the reformist. ‘He mellowed in his later years!’ they cry, ‘He was a proponent of peaceful road to socialism!’ This is of course nonsense. The text these philistines are refering to (introduction to class struggles inf dance) was heavily altered not once but twice. Engels originally wrote a text favouring reformist tactics to revolution. However because of pressure from his colleagues overxegeration g the worry of an anti socialist law, engels gave in. Writing to kautsky he said, ‘My text has suffered to some extent from the apprehensive objections, inspired by the Subversion Bill, of our friends in Berlin – objections of which, in the circumstances, I could not but take account.’. Things that were removed were phrases like, ‘Does that mean that in the future street fighting will no longer play any role? Certainly not. It only means that the conditions since 1848 have become far more unfavourable for civilian fighters and far more favourable for the military. In future, street fighting can, therefore, be victorious only if this disadvantageous situation is compensated by other factors. Accordingly, it will occur more seldom at the beginning of a great revolution than at its later stages, and will have to be undertaken with greater forces.’ and ‘ To keep this growth going without interruption until it gets beyond the control of the prevailing governmental system of itself, not to fritter away this daily increasing shock force in vanguard skirmishes, but to keep it intact until the decisive day, that is our main task.’ However this was not enough for the revisionist. They took the already altered text and took part of it to further bastardised engels. When engels learned of this he was outraged, writing to kautsky, ‘ I was amazed to see today in the Vorwärts [30 March] an except from my ‘Introduction’ that had been printed without my prior knowledge and tricked out in such a way as to present me as a peace-loving proponent of legality come what may. Which is all the more reason why I should like it to appear in its entirely in the Neue Zeit in order that this disgraceful impression may be erased. I shall leave [William] Liebknecht [the editor] in no doubt as to what I think about it and the same applies to those, irrespective of who they may be, gave him the opportunity of perverting my views and, what’s more, without so much as a word to me about it.’. The reformist cannot explain their position from the works of marx and engels, so all that they are left to do is alter it twist it corrupt it. Another technique they resorted to doing is creating ridiculous interpretations of the state, such as it must be ‘de classed’ and turned into a ‘peoples state’. The reformist is nothing but a traitor and a snake when brought up to marxist theory. Reformism must be rejected and cast out less marxism be altered to serve captialism as it was during much of the 20th century, where beaucrats within proletarian revolutions, and bourgeiose revolutionaries claimed marxism. This must not be accepted
