Fear of oppression common in the U.S.

DIRK | 24.06.2002 19:21

To question the wars of the U.S. means to be beat down, black listed and dismissed from your job or removed from school and having your property seized and being imprisoned you should know big brother is watching and acting on what they see

but this is the time to step up our opposition against these dictators that have taken over our country. With tens of millions of Americans caught up in the massive prison industrial complex the citizens of the U.S. know what it is like to live in fear of their government that’s out of their control we must turn our fear into anger and our anger into action for positive change. The implications of what is going down on the ground in the U.S. has major global impact so people of the world must unite and help Americans fight against the fascism that is growing in the U.S. Considering that the insane rulers of this dictatorship have control of tens of thousands of nuclear weapons and plan on using them soon to depopulate the regions of the world on their target list for seizure they plan to kill all who stand in the way of their bloody plans of this evil empire

where are the centers for action?

The "powers that are" fight the ACLU - American Civil Liberties Union to ineffectiveness on most very important cases. They are one of our strongest protectors who just won a US Supreme court case for Retarded persons to NOT be "killed" by the government.

You're right! Thomas Jefferson's spirit must organize from the grass roots and "take our country back to its rightfull owners, "We the People!"

How many of us are there? Where are the central locations for information to flow to and out of?

Post an email address to come together. I'll be back dirk.

Unscientific and nothing new

24.06.2002 23:21

The US government, as with every other capitalist government, is oppressive to the extent of totalitarianism; there's nothing new there. The events of September the 11th provided the US, British, French and many other ruling classes' governments with the pretext for increasing the power and range of their state aparatus and their capacity for the oppression of the working class and minorities as well as all other potentially damaging dissent. However, although it is effective to refer to this as fascist, it is very unscientific. Fascism is a force –composed of thugs and extra-parliamentary elements– called upon by the ruling classes of capitalist nations as a last resort to crush increasingly powerful working class, proletarian forces where they constitute a sizeable and organised, conscious threat to the state power of the bourgeoisie. Fascism is nothing but the ultimate expression of capitalism, throwing aside deceptive illusions of 'democracy' and other methods, which is created in conditions whereby the working class threatens the bourgeoisie. Many of the economic conditions which facilitate the success of fascist organisations exist in the US, namely increased unemployment and extremely economic conditions for many workers– but these are as a result of capitalism in a fully legal form using September the 11th as the pretext for increased oppression, repressive measures and "national unity" through the "war on terrorism", both internally and abroad through imperialist activity. There are many fascist groups in the US, not least the Ku Klux Klan, but these do not hold state power since their creators and masters already do so.

Proletarian revolution and international socialism are necessary to fight capitalism, then fascism will become a serious problem as the bourgeoisie increasingly fears the organised, revolutionary workers, and then it will be the organised revolutionary workers under the banner of international socialist revolution who will crush fascism along with capitalism. Of course, workers must organise to crush the elements of fascism which do exist now, but this must be part of the struggle for workers' revolution, not merely the destruction of fascism for the sake of the destruction of fascism.
