Honouring Chavez: Let’s make a Real horizontal Revolution!

resize_imageHugo Chavez has shown that resistance to US control is possible and popular.
But his regime was centralised and corrupt, and already the Capitalist vuiltures are
gathering to foment chaos and try to grab back power.
Now is the time for all local organisations to rise up and create leader-less democracy from
the base, to honour Hugo’s memory, despite his faults,  and make the revolution real and strong.

On the death of Chavez | El Libertario

Neither mourning nor celebrating: time for social struggles to become autonomous! When an illness becomes serious, when medical attention becomes a vehicle for myopic, politically motivated decisions and when a patient becomes drunk with power, it can only end this way. The strongman has died, and in so doing, he has initiated a substantial shift in the Venezuelan political landscape.

What used to be the regime’s greatest strength has suddenly turned into its defining weakness: it was all Chávez, and, without him, the only solution is to fabricate an absolute commitment to his memory and his plans for succession. The government’s true fragility can now be seen, a government which tried to demonstrate its “popular, socialist” character via a grotesque personality cult, a practice that has now been reduced to the empty invocation of spirits.

The deceased himself is to blame for this outcome as the secrecy around his illness was propelled by the same motivations as the extreme centralisation of power around him, while the lack of ideological coherence amongst his followers has left them scrapping for crumbs. The high-level “rojo-rojito” [chavista red] bureaucrats and the upper echelons of the military are best placed to benefit, as they negotiate impunity for their various misdemeanours and corruptions.YO SOY CHAVEZ

For the right-wing and social democratic opposition, the new situation finds them unable to overcome their losses of the presidential elections of October 7 and the regionals of December 16, offering a “yuppy populism” which promises voters that they will maintain and fine-tune the clientelist tools of governmental power which were so useful to Chavez.

This accommodation assumes the belief that a fortuitous metastasis has brought them within reach of the power that their greed, mistakes, laziness and incompetence had kept them away from, power they will wield with similar stupidity and greed as the Chavista bolibourgeoisie.10soychaj-998

The backdrop to this load of petty opportunism – from both the Gran Polo Patriótico [the Chavista coalition] and the Mesa de Unidad Democrática [the opposition coalition] – is Venezuela, a country that faces its own problems: out of control inflation, rising unemployment and precarious jobs, the devaluation of the currency, shocking personal insecurity, crises in electricity and water provision, education and health systems in decline, a housing shortage, obsolete – or incomplete – public works, a demagogic approach which pays attention to only the most extreme scarcities experienced by the most desperate people… a whole host of other problems which are equally disastrous.

These issues are not the central concern of the two gangs in competition for Miraflores [the President palace/seat] and the oil booty. Our collective response must be to not relent to their blackmail: support at the ballot box in exchange for ‘solutions’ that either never materialise or are ludicrouslcancery inadequate.

Now is the time to overpower the rotten powers that be and build – from below – a real democracy of equality, social justice and freedom. We must unleash the generalised anger caused by our suffering, and convert it into autonomous social struggles, self-managed and extensive. We must spell out for the politicians in power that we don’t need them, neither as intermediaries nor as gracious givers of what we ourselves can construct – united and from the base – without any need for “clean hands” or “red berets”.

In Britain there are no human beings?

angryIn Britain there are no human beings or citizens, no..
..there are only live money beings.

The population allows this to happen. They allow the state to tax them very hard and no real protest happens. They seem to like it, or they are just under the spell of a very organized propaganda. After all it is for the common good.

Let’s all in Britain scream in one united voice that we want a very expensive private educational system perpetuating social walls. Here is another idea: why not, instead of letting older generations freeze in the winter, the banker boy just shoots them all. It would be more dignified. He could even privatize this and get some tax out of it.

Britain is heading towards an intellectual black hole.

In Britain there is no social critique or artist that inflames the masses.

13 ‘Bucaneers’ radical fans arrested: Daily Demos

2ad2fa2666fba23f75a3956b802b08b1_LFreedom Bukaneros

the Buckaneers are the fans of Ray Vallecano F.C. traditionally progressive and active in the Free Alfon Campaign and the escalating resistance to the financial Coup d’Etat in Spain

Eleven Bukaneros mates and two of the Rock rayista ADRV have been arrested by the repressive state apparatus in their homes and even their places of work, between the evening of the 25th and the morning of the 26th in the resisting neighborhood of Vallekas.

It seems that they are accused of belonging to a “criminal gang”, coercion, threats … We know what they are guilty of: being young, being working class, and growing up in a neighborhood with a tradition of exemplary struggle. They are guilty of suffering the impact of this structural crisis of capitalism, which is being used to wipe out all social and labor rights for the powerful to maintain their privileges.

 They are only guilty of resisting.

7GCo6Fh55EwNo wonder that these arrests happen right after the mobilization of 23-F against cuts and privatization, during which the state security forces arrested 45 people, most of them very young. As shown by the smear campaign orchestrated by criminalization and media misinformation against Bukaneros collective, the one great enemy of the state and the system is the revolutionary left. The ruling classes can tolerate the reform measures, but bear real tough on left.

Cristina Cifuentes Mintió Por Twitter: El Rayo Vallecano Niega Haber Denunciado A Los ‘Bukaneros’ ( The club management has confirmed the State lied when claiming the arrests were requested by them)

As the case of comrade Alfonso, who fell on state repression in Madrid, rare here but well known elsewhere, as in the Basque Country, the young detainees are scapegoats by which the State (increasingly used to the framings) wants to send an ominous message to all those who resist.bukaneros

To the discredit of his circus of democratic institutions and formerly “untouchables” like the monarchy, and the increasingly rotten ruling class, the state responds with repressive escalation aimed to eliminate any dissenting voices who want to create a better world and aware that this is only possible by destroying the capitalist socioeconomic system.

The working class pays the consequences of the crisis, but it is not to blame for this. The culprits are the powerful, the system that exploiters and oppressers of the State.

Repression is booming, but so is solidarity. Despite this, solidarity always drawn as a line between those who are allowed to be poisoned by propaganda of the capitalist system and those that, differences aside, fighting side by side in the same roadblock.

We demands the immediate release without charge of all the arrested comrades.

Their only crime: RESISTING.

So resist with them.

THE STRUGGLE OF THE WORKING CLASS

 

Bukaneros Libertad

Once compañeros de Bukaneros y dos de la Peña Rayista ADRV han sido detenidos por los aparatos represivos del Estado en sus domicilios e incluso sus centros de trabajo, entre la tarde del día 25 y la mañana del día 26

Otra vuelve a cernirse la represión del sistema sobre quienes luchan en el barrio de Vallekas.

Once compañeros de Bukaneros y dos de la Peña Rayista ADRV han sido detenidos por los aparatos represivos del Estado en sus domicilios e incluso sus centros de trabajo, entre la tarde del día 25 y la mañana del día 26. Parece ser que se les acusa de pertenecer a una “banda criminal”, coacciones, amenazas… Nosotrxs sabemos de qué son culpables: de ser jóvenes, de ser clase trabajadora, y de haberse criado en un barrio con una tradición de lucha ejemplar. Son culpables de sufrir el impacto de esta crisis estructural del capitalismo, que está siendo utilizada para arrasar con todos los derechos sociales y laborales para que los poderosos mantengan sus privilegios.

Y son culpables de resistir.

No es de extrañar que estas detenciones sucedan a la movilización del 23-F contra los recortes y las privatizaciones, durante la cual las fuerzas de seguridad del Estado detuvieron a 45 personas, la mayoría de ellas muy jóvenes. Como ha demostrado la campaña de difamación y criminalización orquestada por los medios de desinformación contra el colectivo Bukaneros, el único gran enemigo del Estado y del sistema es la izquierda revolucionaria. Las clases dominantes pueden tolerar las medidas reformistas, pero cargarán con dureza contra la verdadera izquierda.bukaneros reivindicacion politica nov 2012

Como el caso del compañero Alfon, sobre el que cayó una represión estatal rara en Madrid pero bien conocida en otros lugares como Euskal Herria, los jóvenes detenidos son chivos expiatorios mediante los que el Estado (cada vez más acostumbrado a los montajes) quiere enviar un siniestro mensaje a todas las personas que resisten.

Ante el descrédito de su circo democrático, de instituciones antes “intocables” como la monarquía, y la creciente descomposición de la clase dominante, el Estado responde con una escalada de violencia represiva que tiene por objetivo acabar con toda voz disidente que quiera crear un mundo mejor y sea consciente de que ésto sólo es posible mediante la destrucción del sistema socioeconómico capitalista.

La clase trabajadora paga la consecuencias de la crisis, pero no es la culpable de ésta. Los culpables son los poderosos, el sistema que nos explota y el Estado que nos oprime.

La represión está en auge, pero también lo está la solidaridad. Pese a esto, la solidaridad dibujará como siempre una línea entre quienes se permiten estar envenenadxs por la propaganda del sistema capitalista y aquellas personas que, diferencias aparte, luchan codo con codo en la misma barricada.

Red Roja exige la libertad inmediata y sin cargos de todos los compañeros detenidos.

Su único crimen: RESISTIR.

Por eso, resistiremos junto a ellos.

VIVA LA LUCHA DE LA CLASE OBRERA

Heck, men have been to blame since feminists first took to the streets in the 1970s. SUCCESS! We have taken over the world and turned men into slaves! Muhahahaha! Continue reading “foxnews: women aren`t women anymore”
