"Finally
now, listen to this. As we see in the world, Maoism is marching unstoppably to
lead the new wave of world proletarian revolution. Listen well and understand!
Those who have ears, use them. Those who have understanding - and we all have
it - use it! Enough of this nonsense. Enough of these obscurities! Let us
understand that! What is unfolding in the world? What do we need? We need
Maoism to be embodied, and it is being embodied, and by generating Communist
Parties it shall drive and lead this new great wave of the world proletarian
revolution that is coming." –Speech of Chairman Gonzalo, Sep. 1992
Proletarians of all countries, unite!
From DEM
VOLKE DIENEN:
We,
the signing Marxist-Leninist-Maoist Parties and Organizations, reaffirm
ourselves, in this solemn celebration of the 26th year of the historical and
transcendental speech of Chairman Gonzalo, in its full validity and especially
in defending the life of this Titan of Thought and Action, the Great Leader of
the Communist Party of Peru and the Peruvian Revolution; who has defined Maoism
as the new, third and superior stage of Marxism and who established, that to be
a Marxist today is to be a Marxist-Leninist-Maoist, principally Maoist. We
understand that the defense of Chairman Gonzalo implies to struggle in the most
consequent way to impose Maoism as the sole command and guide of the New Great
Wave of the Proletarian World Revolution, which is already developing. We
understand that this struggle is part of the task to reunite the communists of
the world, which implies to put the principles of Marxism, the class interests
of the international proletariat, the struggle for liberation of the oppressed
peoples and nations, and in the end, the struggle for Communism, in the first
place.
The
campaign for the celebration of the 200th anniversary of the birth of the great
Karl Marx – that was preceded by the celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the
Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution and the 100th Anniversary of the October
Revolution - has marked a leap in the struggle to unite the communists in the
world. It is a campaign, principally propelled by the Marxist-Leninist-Maoist
Parties and Organizations of Latin America, which is demonstrating a higher
ideological, political and organizational unity of a significant part of the
International Communist Movement (ICM) and in its development, new forces are
joining. Since the campaign for the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the
birth of Chairman Mao Tsetung (毛泽东),
there was no similar campaign in the ICM. For no one to be confused: the
campaigns to support the People’s Wars have obviously not been of the same
character, as this is a campaign of Parties and Organizations with an explicit
communist character – this fact calls for serious reflection, because it is an
expression of how the struggle for unity is developed on practice, putting
Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, principally Maoism, the struggle against revisionism
and serving the world revolution as a starting point, in summary, how the
slogan Unite under Maoism! Manifests.
It
is also important to highlight, for everyone who is willing to see, that an
important impulse in the ICM was given in the last years. In many countries
where the communist forces were on a very underdeveloped stage, Parties and
Organizations that uphold Marxism-Leninism-Maoism reemerged and who struggle to
reconstitute their Communist Parties that were destroyed by revisionism. The
majority of these forces took clear position for the definition of Maoism made
by Chairman Gonzalo. This makes some people, aloof from any Marxist criteria,
label them as “Gonzaloists” and impute the left to be “sectarian and dogmatic”.
Apart from the obvious – that opportunism and revisionism have always branded
Marxists this way – it reveals that they have not understood that we are in the
period of struggle to impose Maoism as the sole command and guide of the
Proletarian World Revolution and that when assuming Maoism as the third stage
of development of the ideology of the international proletariat, many parties
and organizations, in essence, have only seen it as changing one formulation,
that to speak of Maoism was a “more modern” form to speak about Mao Tsetung Thought.
So
the problem in the ICM is not principally rooted in that Maoism is not formally
acknowledged, but how some understand it, and this is why it is important to
start with who defined Maoism as the new, third and superior stage of our
ideology; because it is only by starting from what was scientifically
established by Chairman Gonzalo that we can understand Maoism as one unit, as
one harmonic system. If one does not take the work of Chairman Gonzalo as a
starting point, one falls into eclecticism, counterposing quotes but not understanding
the ideas. If we understand this, we can understand the reason why there are
not few Parties and Organizations that, while taking longer time, have become
stuck and have not made leaps in their processes, while those who put the most
effort into learning from Chairman Gonzalo are, in general, advancing
principally in qualitative terms, but also in quantitative terms. We advice
those who rush to give labels to open their eyes to the material truth instead
of getting carried away by their imaginations.
If
we see the real state of the struggle for the reunification of the communists
in the world we can see that in many aspects we are much better off than we
were during the best moments of the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement
(RIM), because although the RIM was correctly characterized by Chairman Gonzalo
as a “step forward”, he also pointed out - with his proper precision – that “as
long as it follows a just and correct ideological-political line” the RIM will
be a step forward, and it was, and it served to unite the communists on the
basis of the red line and this could be no other than the line of Chairman
Gonzalo. That is to say, the principal in the evaluation of the RIM is to state
that it served the Proletarian World Revolution – and particularly the struggle
to reunite the communists, while it served the struggle to impose Maoism as its
sole command and guide - that is to say, the struggle which was led by Chairman
Gonzalo - and that it ceased to play a positive role when the revisionists of
the “RCP” from United States - taking advantage of the problematic situation of
the left due to the bend in the People’s War in Peru – turned to totally
hegemonize it. We must never forget that the unity is to serve the revolution
and it only serves it, if the interest of the proletariat is imposed. The unity
of the communists today in the world can only be achieved on the basis of
Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, principally Maoism, or else it is not a unity of
communists but a kind of “front” with revisionism and opportunism.
RIM
was liquidated by revisionism’s handling of the two-line struggle. The maneuver
of Avakian was, to state - as a starting point of his “criticism” of the second
Right Opportunist Line, revisionist and capitulationist, in Peru – that supposedly
“the author would not matter, only the line”, which precisely led to centering
the debate on who “the author” was. Or did this miserable not know that the
communists of the world would rise when their Great Leadership was questioned?
This is how the two-line struggle was derailed. The Problem for the left in the
ICM was the hard and complex situation in which the PCP entered after the
arrest of Chairman Gonzalo.
Despite
everything, the PCP continued fulfilling its role as the Red Fraction in the ICM
and the People’s War continued to be beacon and guide of PWR. Because the life
of the party can never be detained and the People’s War was not stopped for
even a moment. However, situations like the lack of the Great Leader caused
problems in the left. The right could then state their positions (the attacks
on the dictatorship of the proletariat, the “justification of peace
negotiations as tactics”, the negation of semifeudality and evolution of
bureaucratic capitalism, the negation of the three characteristics of
imperialism, etc.) and all this remained in second place because the attention
was centered on “debating” the maneuvers of the psychological warfare of
imperialism and the sinister actions of traitors. Around the turning of the
century, the struggle was sharpened. Then the left went into trouble and a
great part fell into Avakian’s trap, the initiative fell into the hands of the
right and they could lead the two-line struggle into exploding and thus
revisionism liquidated the RIM.
No
one can blame the Marxists for revisionism’s crimes, but this self-critical
evaluation of the left is indeed necessary, its leadership lacked the necessary
maturity and foresight to prevent the intrigues of revisionism, a problem that
was extremely worsened by infiltration and usurpation of whole apparatuses by
secret services and police of the reaction.
Prachanda
has even formally renegated Marxism-Leninism-Maoism while uniting with the
revisionists of UML, proving once again that he never was a Maoist, that he was
never the “great leader” that those who wanted to negate what was put forward
by Chairman Gonzalo and the PCP claimed so much, unmasking himself before the
world as the most miserable upstart, trafficker and intriguer that has been
seen in the last few decades in the ICM. This miserable can not be qualified as
a traitor anymore because he has shown that in his whole life he was never a
communist, but the only thing he was interested in was his personal power and
this is why they have no choice but to call executioners of Nepalese
revolution, such as the rats of UML, “comrades”.
Years
have already passed since the gallant Avakian catapulted himself out of the
ranks of the ICM. His “new synthesis” is a rupture with Marxism, is an
absolute demarcation with the ideology of the international proletariat, is an
open and shameless negation of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism. Avakian, just like
Alexander, proclaimed himself god, the difference is that the latter did so to
maintain his empire and to control his new forces, while the former did it to
maintain his small degenerated court and to be able to continue vegetating in
the mud.
Although
the revisionist positions of both - principally the one of Avakian, for being
the head of the right - are still repercussing and the struggle against them
can not be declared finished, due to the fact that both fled from the internal
struggle in the ICM they can not be taken as the center of the two-line
struggle. To state that the center of the struggle is to criticize those two
miserables is to put forward the conciliation with revisionism and is to leave
the empty field to the right.
The
principal problem is not with those who have gone away, the renegades, but the
ones that are part of the ICM. Yes, their poisonous line must be dismantled and
crushed, but that must be done particularly to further unite on the base of
Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, principally Maoism, with the contributions of
universal validity of Chairman Gonzalo and this implies to debate the central
points and particularly to achieve a generalized understanding of Maoism as a
unit.
There
are those that until now insist on spreading the counterrevolutionary hoax
(that Chairman Gonzalo is the head of the opportunist, revisionist and
capitulationist right opportunist line,).They argue with what was stated by
traitors (“he told me” or “he embraced me” and other gossip), with what is
controlled by imperialism and the psychological warfare of the reaction
(“courts” and “filtered” videos). Anything that comes from whoever wants to throw
mud at Chairman Gonzalo supposedly has to be taken very seriously, has to be
“analyzed” and has to break our heads to enter into a discussion “whether or
not it is him”. They are wrong, because they do not understand that “the
debate” has already been closed, the communists have already taken a position
and the matter is settled: It was demonstrated that Chairman Gonzalo has not
denied the Party Unity Base of the PCP for a moment. He is the Great Leader of
the Party and the revolution, the greatest living Marxist-Leninist-Maoist on
the face of earth, keeping on struggling to transform the concentration camp of
Callao Navy Base into the most Shining Trench of Combat of the People’s
War. What corresponds is to defend his life with People’s War. 26 years have
already passed in which Chairman Gonzalo could not directly communicate with
the Party or the ICM; 26 years of absolute isolation, this is what it
concretely is. That imperialism, the reaction and revisionism will continue to
plot intrigues is clear, the contrary would be that they have changed their
nature (a thesis of the disciples of the sacred Avakian, which is impossible),
but we must not allow that these intrigues stop the advance of the communists.
To
be clear: We communists reaffirm ourselves in the principle of criticism and
self-criticism and the seriousness of a Party that, as Lenin taught us, is
measured by its capability to assume self-criticism. This is why we do not
close the door to anyone, except to those who stained their hands with the
blood of the masses. Hence, if those who committed grave mistakes and errors
really want to correct themselves they are very welcome; for this they have to
demonstrate their condition as communists and close ranks with the left,
understand that to be a Great Leader you have to move more than your “close and
dear ones”, that a proletarian Great Leader is not a ridiculous big shot but
someone who knows how to lead the transformation of the world.
On
this occasion of celebrating a new anniversary of the Speech of Chairman
Gonzalo, we particularly want to greet the comrades from the Communist Party of
Peru who are advancing through firm steps in the general reorganization of the
Party, that is already approaching the days of its culmination; a process that
is made in the midst of the People’s War, proven one again with the recent
forceful actions of the People’s Liberation Army that maintains the People’s
Committees and Base Areas. We communists of the world acknowledge the
extraordinary role of the PCP and no one can doubt that the culmination of the
reorganization of this Party will mean a significant impulse for the
Proletarian World Revolution and will be a decisive piece in the struggle for
the reunification of the ICM.
We
must understand that what Chairman Gonzalo said on September 24, 1992, is being
fulfilled: Maoism is being embodied by the peoples of the world, is generating
Marxist-Leninist-Maoist Communist Parties, is starting to lead the New Great
Wave of the Proletarian World Revolution. What is up to us is to struggle for
it to be further embodied, that the ongoing People’s Wars advance, that the
People’s War is as soon as possible initiated in each country where there are
Communist Parties, that the struggle for the reconstitution of the Parties in those
countries were none of them exist gets propelled further, so that they become
Parties to initiate the People’s War. Understanding Maoism as a unit, we will
march with ever more clarity and firmness towards the reunification of the
communists on world level, smashing imperialism, the reaction and revisionism,
learning from Chairman Gonzalo.
Long live Chairman Gonzalo!
Unite under Maoism!
People’s War will inevitably win!
Unite under Maoism!
People’s War will inevitably win!
