From Maoist_Road:
We find this short but clear statement by the editors of
“Rot Front” (Austria ) and
“Klassenstandpunkt” (Germany )
regarding Brexit very important and post it here as we believe it should be
discussed widely.
The vote in Great Britain
is cast and has resulted in a slim victory of the pro-“Brexit” camp, even
though the numerous economic and political links will mean that it will
not a complete exit but merely a modification of the political ones. For the
imperialists of the EU, and especially Germany
and France ,
it means that an important rival has been pushed back. In the medium term this
will benefit German imperialism the most, which will lead to a sharpening of
the contradiction between German imperialism and the peoples of Europe and the world.
The result
of the referendum prove that the means of parliamentary cretinism cannot
provide a single step for the liberation of our class. All the self-proclaimed
“revolutionaries” and “communists” that called for a vote against remaining in the
EU have now used up all their ammunition, since the result that is the one the
called for. Now they stand there having to meekly admit that their
participation in the vote did not move the British proletariat one step forward
but merely aids a certain section of the British bourgeoisie and some of
Britain’s rivals in the EU. Instead of developing the independent forces of the
people on the basis of active boycott they took part in the spectacle of the
bourgeoisie. Now their cluelessness regarding the way forward shows the lack of
perspective of revisionism and parliamentary cretinism. Because of this the
firm, internationalist statement of the Communist Party of Italy
(Maoist), which makes clear that the popular masses will not free themselves through
the means of the ballot box and parliamentary cretinism, is an important
contribution regarding this event. The referendum in Britain clearly shows that the
bourgeoisie can less and less rule as it has done. This is the general
situation, not only in Great
Britain , which is why in future the
bourgeoisie will increasingly resort to referendums and other tricks. The
communist forces have the great duty to use this situation and, firmly based on
the masses, fight to deepen this political crisis of the bourgeoisie. To be
able to walk this path standing tall it is necessary to break with
parliamentary cretinism and wage a ruthless struggle against revisionism. Even
though during the course of the vote revisionism raised its head across
the EU, it was the red forces of the communist movement that made important
steps in this struggle.
Death to Imperialism!
Long live the proletarian world revolution!
Long live the proletarian world revolution!
