Rotting capitalism reaches its barbaric, bloody stage of mass terror

Rotting capitalism reaches its barbaric, bloody stage of mass terror

Capitalism has experienced its conquering and bloody imperialist stage. Now it is the imperialist stage of economic decay and mass terror.

Murderous for the people, destructive to public health, pandemic, and on the way to global, economic, real estate, industrial, financial, banking, inflationary and warlike collapse, it is the stage of fascist barbarism of mass destruction, massacre and widespread terror.

The media themselves are forced to acknowledge that the world is turning into a horror and that those who are not immersed in it themselves are horrified... These are not games, these are not scary movies, these are the news of repressions, dictatorships, wars and civil wars across the entire planet.

No worries : that’s actually the goal, as we’ll show ! It’s about terrorizing people, and not just those in war zones... It’s not just about justifying the terrors of each side by those of the opposing side, but also about persuading all peoples that their very lives are threatened.

Thus, the French people, who are not directly concerned by the Middle East conflict, are nevertheless largely convinced that they are !

Already 10,000 dead in Israel/Palestine ! They are added to thousands more deaths from numerous conflicts around the world ! And countless barbaric acts ! Destruction of hospitals and schools, deliberate bombing of working-class neighborhoods ! Acts of unprecedented violence when we were already panicked by previous conflicts ! We saw unarmed populations machine-gunned, burned with flamethrowers in Ukraine, and so on with the fascist horrors on both sides.

What do Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan, Libya, Tunisia, Ukraine, and the Middle East show the world about the future that decaying capitalism offers it ? It is horror, it is the worst violence, it is the torture of peoples, it is methods and means more atrocious than the imagination dares to depict !

The world is rediscovering the “white terror,” the counter-revolutionary massacre carried out by fascist powers…

Entire regions of the planet are bathed in blood, entire peoples are displaced, frightened, decimated, herded into camps, raped, massacred...

The rest of the world witnesses these scenes of horror, generally justifies one of the warring sides, supports it, arms it, even pushes it to war, while it, just like its adversary, practices the massacre of civilians, thousands of unarmed, innocent people caught in the crossfire. Everything is done to make people believe that the only choice is to support one of the sides, or to simply call for peace (or even just a humanitarian ceasefire), in a plaintive manner, without questioning the power of those who use it to plunge the planet into blood and death.

When rulers are reduced to direct violence alone, it is because the capitalist dynamic is dead.

The pandemic wave, too, had its counter-revolutionary effect, halting the revolutionary mobilization of working people that was gradually spreading across all continents. Far from fighting it and defending public health, capitalist rulers did everything they could to make it gain momentum. Some rulers even glorified it, like the British and American leaders. Others spread the criminal thesis that the best way to fight the pandemic was to let it develop (the so-called herd immunity theory).

The convergence of all these catastrophes is no coincidence : pandemic, economic and social collapse, rise of dictatorships and repression...

During the pandemic and economic collapse, violence against women and children is on the rise.

Excess mortality in the world is not only due to Covid but also to the collapse of capitalism which began in 2007 !!!

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article5995

The new global economic downturn, after that of 2007-2008, was not triggered in 2020 by the coronavirus, but in 2019 by the fact that the state of artificial survival since 2008 had also reached its limits.

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article5880

The deterioration of public health, including in rich countries, is a symptom of the historic and inexorable collapse of capitalism.

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article7355

The Covid weapon is being used directly against the virus of social revolution.
Increasingly, in a capitalist world collapsing in whole sections, health, political, social, and economic problems appear clearly inseparable and are becoming critical. Revolts involving all these intertwined aspects are unfolding before our eyes.

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article6136

The capitalist world, on the brink of economic and financial collapse, with massive central bank interventions no longer able to camouflage the stage of putrefaction of the global system, prefers to push people to tear each other apart and perish in pandemics, rather than risk seeing the working people overthrow the capitalists through social revolution.

At this moment, people are pitted against each other : Jews and Palestinians, Shiites and Sunnis, Indians, Vietnamese, Japanese and Chinese, Ukrainians and Russians, North and South Koreans, Azeris and Armenians, migrants and nationals from everywhere... It is no coincidence that all these conflicts are born or reborn at the same time, because it is also at the same time that the global economic system has reached its limits, can no longer pretend that its functioning can last interminably, that the interventions of central banks can no longer contain the fractures of the sinking Titanic...

The extremely violent clashes, bloodbaths, and massacres are not only taking place in the two wars in Ukraine and Palestine, but also in Syria, Sudan, Yemen, Kosovo, Lebanon, Libya, Nigeria, Armenia, the Central African Republic, Sri Lanka, Mali, Iraq, Zimbabwe, Tigray, Burkina Faso, and so on. Elsewhere, other wars are brewing. In Africa, the departure of the former French colonial power is leading to new wars. The Pacific Ocean is also ready for confrontation ; weapons are already loaded. The USA/Japan/Australia/South Korea camp is facing China there. War simply needs to be declared. It is only waiting for the signal from the propertied classes, who will give the green light as soon as they know that the financial system will inevitably collapse. Because capitalism is determined not to give way even if it is historically dead, definitively outdated, incapable of functioning anymore.

Bloodshed, terror, and massacre are the counter-fires that the capitalist classes oppose to the threats of waves of social revolution. We too often forget that war has only followed revolutions. We saw this in Syria, where the people acted as did the people of Egypt and Tunisia, who brought down their dictators through their massive mobilization, temporarily rendering the armies powerless to repress them. The possessing classes of the entire world rushed to transform the Syrian revolution into a war between two armies. It was the same in Libya and Yemen. There again, the social revolution was threatening, and the possessing classes of the world transformed the revolution into a vast charnel house. Far from fighting terrorism and dictatorships, as they claimed, they supported, financed, and armed them.

In Ukraine, too, it all began with a social revolution and then turned into a bloodbath. In Israel, too, power was contested by the Israelis themselves, and the Palestinians, too, contested their leaders. The bloodbath exists to reconcile peoples with their ruling classes. By force. Through the threat of imminent death. Through horror. Through mass graves. Through fear of the opposing camp. Through the dictatorship of war that prohibits any protest. Any country at war becomes a dictatorship.

The revolutions in Syria, Libya, Yemen and Sudan have already seen this wave of mass killings contrast with the wave of social and political revolutions.

Western imperialist wars waged in these countries have always been cloaked in virtuous pretexts : to civilize, humanize, pacify, and liberate people from dictatorships and terrorism. But none of the countries where the great powers claimed to liberate their peoples have known anything other than war and bloodshed. None have been rebuilt. None have emerged from mass terror.

What do the ruling classes do when their system is at its end and threatened by a revolutionary class ? A huge bloodbath, a preemptive bloody counterrevolution ! This isn’t the first time they’ve demonstrated this. Two world wars and numerous colonial wars have already made all peoples pay the price in blood to prove it. And what’s coming is a hundred times worse...

In preparation for preventive counter-revolution in the event of economic collapse, the world bourgeoisie is training for armed struggle against the urban proletariat.

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article3927

The bourgeoisie would like to transform the rising social anger in Europe into hatred between nationals and immigrants, and into racial hatred against Muslims accused of terrorism and Islamic radicalism, which would save it from paying for the blows it strikes against all workers (destruction of social rights, public services, jobs, wages, pensions, education and health), blows which could lead workers together to turn against the State and the ruling classes. This policy aims to bridge the gap between the workers themselves by also presenting the police state as the defender of one fraction of workers against another.

War operations are multiplying around the world and all reflect the war between the two blocs, the USA on one side, and China/Russia on the other.

The end of capitalism as a single global system is notably marked by its division into two blocs, both in terms of weapons and economics. And the Russia/China bloc is far from isolated, contrary to Western propaganda.

The imperialist Russia/China bloc, which opposes the American bloc, is not insignificant.

https://matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article7031

The so-called "deglobalization," in fact the demolition of the global system, leads to two increasingly separate blocs.

But it is capitalist collapse that is leading the world to war in an inevitable and ultra-violent manner.

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article7421

The coming world war is inevitably linked to the fall of the capitalist system.

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article7348

As economic collapse becomes inexorable, preparations for world war accelerate and intensify...

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article7246

We are constantly told that capitalism has no alternative, that workers cannot hope for a better world than this one and that, without capitalism, we could not live. The organizations that claim to be on the side of the workers are for the most part of the same opinion, even if their titles display the words "socialism" and "communism" or even "Trotskyism" and "anarchism"... The death of capitalism seems to them a false slogan and not a reality that we will have to take into account if we do not want the old system of exploitation to bury us with it...

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article6960

The solution is not pacifism, friendship between peoples, disarmament, beautiful thoughts, generosity, unity !

The solution is not more left-wing, less belligerent governments, more willing to reform the system and other nonsense...

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article7421

The solution is to disarm the killers by taking away their power !

The solution is the revolution that leads the working people to power, that destroys the capitalist states, including the most powerful, the great imperialisms :

Workers, the only way to defend ourselves : take power !

It is up to the working class to take the lead of all the exploited and oppressed.

In the face of the current collapse of capitalism, the class politics of the proletariat leads it to take the leadership of the working people.

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article5907

The only answer to the global economic, social, health, political and military crisis of the capitalist system is this : workers’ government !

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article6004

We must not support one imperialism under the pretext of fighting another ! Down with the war of all imperialisms ! Down with imperialism and capitalism !

https://www.matierevolution.org/spip.php?article7820#forum41501

We must not say "Down with war" without saying "destruction of capitalist states, causes of war" and we must not say "Down with capitalism" and "Revolution" without saying "Power of workers’ councils" !

The first task against capitalist barbarism is to build the assemblies, councils, and committees of the working people !

Capitalism is dead ! Its fundamental functioning has been interrupted ! All that remains is the capitalist state to be overthrown ! Only social revolution can rid us of it ! Long live the Federation of Revolutionary Communes of the Working People and Workers’ Committees !

https://www.matierevolution.fr/spip.php?article5881

The choice is clear : either the world proletariat puts an end to capitalism, or capitalism puts an end to civilized humanity !
