FROM THE STEEL CAGES OF THE FASCIST TEXAS PRISON SYSTEM, a crime against humanity, I submit my solidarity statement to INTERNATIONAL DAY OF SOLIDARITY WITH LONG-TERM ANARCHIST PRISONERS, as an honorous and principled annual event to support many of us, whether we consider ourselves “anarchists, revolutionary socialists, communists,” or by any other anti-racist, anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, anti-fascist name, the critical point is to come to full circle, no matter our “theoretical differences” over questions such as organizing a vanguard revolutionary party to lead our struggles, on “democratic centralism”, on class struggle, and the ultimate withering away of a needed revolutionary state, to ensure that once dismantled, the ruling class does not reorganize to engage in counter revolution to regain their power, lessons learned from the original Paris Commune, and many other recorded historical events in history, since the creation of the first International Working Men’s Association, and the splits that emerged in the “anarchist movement”.
But “titles” do not a revolutionary make, nor a revolution make, for not only interpreting the world, but setting out to change it, under extreme repression by the forces of fascism fearful of what a truly free, and educated class can achieve, once it frees itself of the psychological chains of mental oppression, and re-learns its historical role as “gravediggers of the old capitalist class rule system,” in organizing to create a new society, and a new world minus the capitalist system of oppression, injustices and class relations, in freeing working class labor from the shackles of capitalist accumulation, to serve the rich and their caste system, called “free enterprise” by another name. It is our own “practice” of facing these realities that make us, understanding that, as Italian anarchist Errico Malatesta once said class struggle being the most powerful weapon in the working class movement against capitalism and imperialism.
Texas, has, again, become the head of the snake of the modern industrial state, as it did in colonial times, in its settler colonialism, white supremacy and slave trade catalyst and kingpin of Jim Crow Dixieland Fascism, with the rise of the new right-wing fascist movement led by the principal architects of the ultra-Right, white Christian evangelical and anti-critical race theory movement, as we see unfolding today before our very own eyes, such as the January 6th riot led by chief fascist Donald Trump, who inspires to regain control of the oval office and the White House in November 2024, despite being a “convicted felon”. Given these tumultuous times it becomes unprincipled and immature for us to divide the “leftist movement” over theoretical differences, when what is to be done, we all know, which means to organize our oppressed communities, create our own autonomous liberated zones, create our own solidarity economy to teach the poor, the oppressed, to produce our own food, and basic necessities, and create industries, all in the collective ownership of the working class for the working class itself, where all profits are owned by and are administered equally on behalf of the workers, and their families, who produce society’s wealth.
Our struggles are common, and we must see the urgency of our class struggles, not merely, year after year, organize these events, and exchange rhetoric and blow hot air, while conditions worsen for the poor, and the nuclear superpowers such as Russia, China and the United States exchange their nuclear saber rattlings of use of nuclear weapons to protect or conquer more territories as we see going on in Ukraine, Syria, Iran, Iraq and the boiling pot running hot in Taiwan, and in the occupied territories of Palestine, and Israeli zionism, and U.S. Imperialism committing monstrous war crimes, crimes against humanity, committing genocide against innocent civilians; men, women, children, that must be brought to justice in properly convened international human rights tribunals under Nuremberg and Tokyo principles of international laws and the laws of nations, to prosecute these war criminals and the manufacture of the weapons of mass destruction manufactured in the munitions plant in Amarillo, Texas and throughout the U.S. Military Industrial Complex facilities.
Our struggles are not only a matter of freeing working class labor from the chains of capital, but a matter of survival of planet earth as the oil tycoons of the fossil fuel industries release more carbon emissions, spurring climate change crisis around the world, only to satisfy their insatiable greed and lust for more wealth, money, the conquering of underdeveloped nations and domination and control of world markets and international finance capital. A World War III is inevitable between these power hungry psychopaths that rule over us, unless we organize and depose them of their illegally acquired political power, disarm them of their arsenal of weapons of mass destruction, AND BEGIN A REVOLUTION OF NEW VALUES, A NEW REVOLUTIONARY CULTURE, A NEW REVOLUTIONARY ETHOS OF COMMUNITY CARE, LOVE, UNITY, SOLIDARY AND INDEPENDENCE AND FREEDOM FROM CAPITALISM AND IMPERIALISM BEFORE THESE IMPERIALIST BARBARIANS DESTROY PLANET EARTH AND END THIS CIVILIZATION AS WE KNOW IT…
