Nearly home! What a crazy journey. The British rail service is absolutely nuts.

Joti with her usual brilliance here dismissing the liberal minded ideas of what fascism is.

Marxism is more relevant today than ever. The forces of capitalist development have never been more dominant, or more parasitic. It's vital that we grasp the understanding passed down to us and we bring it to the masses of workers. It is our best weapon against the ruling class.

"In the capitalist world, Marx's doctrine arouses the greatest enmity and hatred of all bourgeois science, which considers marxism something like a "pernicious sect." One cannot expect a different attitude, because there cannot be a science. impartial" in a society built on class struggle. In one way or another, all bourgeois science defends wage slavery, and marxism declared a merciless war on that slavery. "To expect impartial science in a society founded on slavery is as stupidly naive as expecting impartiality from the owners of the means of production that the wages of workers should be increased to the detriment of the profits of capitalists."

V.I. Lenin - Three sources and three constituent parts of Marxism.

As Marxist-Leninists we must be prepared to patiently explain to workers who have fallen for the lies of the bourgeoisie how they are being lied to. We must not condemn them or demonise them for getting taken in by the relentless lies of the capitalist propaganda machine but neither must we pander to those lies.
Whereas we must be patient with workers we must be remorseless in exposing the paid propagandists of the bourgeoisie as the cynical, paid liars that they are.

We offer workers the truth about their condition and an understanding that there is a way out for them but that involves hard work in terms of becoming educated and organised. That means we do not pander to false ideas, no matter how much certain workers might hold such ideas to be sacred. We are fully prepared for the reality that, at this stage, only a few advanced workers will be drawn to us but that is merely a reflection of the long period of defeat we are coming out of now. There is no short cut here, no "weird trick" and no way forward except through dedicated and patient work.

Class gets its significance from the process of surplus extraction. The relationship between worker and owner is essentially an exploitative one, involving the constant transfer of wealth from those who labour (but do not own) to those who own (but do not labour). This is how some people get richer and richer without working, or with doing only a fraction of the work that enriches them, while others toil hard for an entire lifetime only to end up with little or nothing.

The US, along with its European satraps, fought an economic war against Russia and lost, letting Europe take the pain. Now the US has begun an economic war against China this time alone, and their loss will be greater than their worst fears. The former hegemon will be humiliated into submission.
