6 Principles Of Working Class Struggle
6 Principles Of Working Class Struggle

STRATEGIZE! CLASS, WORKER RIGHTS AND JOBS
United States – The Empire holds by far the most prisoners than any other country on earth, in both absolute numbers and per capita. Abby Martin explores the dark reality of America’s prisons: their conditions, who is warehoused in them, and the roots of mass incarceration.
Featuring interviews with Eddie Conway, former political prisoner unjustly incarcerated for 44 years, and Eugene Puryear, author of “Shackled and Chained, Mass Incarceration in Capitalist America.”
1) Class antagonism. There is no reconciliation possible between the
workers and the capitalists (company/owners/bosses/management). Workers
are not “exchanging labor for a fair wage” but are being robbed by their
class enemy. Exploitation is inherent in the relationship. Even if we win
concessions, we must never be satisfied.
2) Collectivity. There is no way to win this struggle as individuals.
Working class unity is crucial.
3) Combativeness. There is no way to win by cooperating with the enemy,
being subsumed by them, or avoiding confrontation with them, but it must
be through struggle–whatever level of struggle corresponds to the capacity
we have at a given time.
4) Internal democracy. Once we have established an organization with a
basic orientation, it must function internally with democratic practices.
Each member should be encouraged to participate fully and openly state
their views. We don’t want bureaucratic structures or foot soldiers, but
for every individual to increase their capacity for the strength of the
collective.
5) Class autonomy. We must make sure that our struggles are in our class
interests, and not inadvertently serve the interests of other classes. The
working class must lead, self-manage and control its own struggle, and not
be led by capitalist proxies (establishment unions that collaborate with
management, NGOs, politicians, legalistic means). Even if we use those
entities in specific situations as we build our capacity, like bringing in
unions or lawyers, they must be under the control of autonomous workers
organizations.
6) Internationalism. The capitalists are an international class, and so
are workers. We have more in common with one another as workers across
borders than we do with the capitalists in our home countries. National
borders were arbitrarily set up by capitalists in the first place—they
cross them at will, while limiting our freedom to do so. We need to build
solidarity with workers globally to strengthen our common struggle.
“Workers of the world: Unite!” is not just a slogan, but is a guide to
action.

Anyone is welcome to use their voice here at FREEDOM OR ANARCHY,Campaign of Conscience.THERE IS NO JUSTICE IN AMERICA FOR THOSE WITH OUT MONEY if you seek real change and the truth the first best way is to use the power of the human voice and unite the world in a common cause our own survival I believe that to meet the challenges of our times, human beings will have to develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. Each of us must learn to work not just for oneself, ones own family or ones nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace,“Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world...would do this, it would change the earth.” Love and Peace to you all stand free and your ground feed another if you can let us the free call it LAWFUL REBELLION standing for what is right
