Mexico:

Bring Communist Ideas to Masses in Class Struggle

Text Size:  ABC  ABC

MEXICO—Building the worldwide party of the working class, ICWP, is indispensable and fundamental for our emancipation. ICWP members don’t seek to become officials under capitalist governments.  Instead we fight to eliminate the last form of the enslavement of humanity and to build a communist society.
In the last six months we have immersed ourselves in the workers’ struggles.  The teachers, in their struggle against “Education Reform” have been in the vanguard of these mobilizations.  We try to take their thinking towards the elimination of the system of wage slavery.
We have explained to them, by being with them and distributing Red Flag and our manifesto Mobilize the Masses for Communism, that this is the only way in which our class will be emancipated from the capitalists.  We have asked some teachers to read with us some of the articles in our newspaper.
We have also distributed 1,000 copies of our pamphlet against racism. This can help us to have deeper discussions with our base about racism in Mexico and worldwide.
Our forces are limited and we are swimming against the current of pro-capitalist politics. However, we trust that in the end the working class will make communist ideas their own.  They will turn their backs on those who seek to maintain wage labor.
The youth have also taken to the streets against the corruption of the politicians, shouting “Peña Out!”
We have spread the idea that the leaders of these movements are wrong not to pursue the complete elimination of capitalism.  Some believe that the evil is “neo-liberalism” and advocate state regulation and national sovereignty. They align with the Chinese imperialists.
As in many countries, some follow the line that restored capitalist rule in the Soviet Union and in China.  They divert workers’ struggles into the arms of new exploiters of the workers’ labor power. They are brave.  The regime has killed several of their members. However, they still do not believe that it is possible to end the use of the workers’ labor power by the capitalists (wage labor).
Each group that achieves some considerable political influence puts forward the idea of competing for power.  However, their goal is not to “smash” bourgeois power but instead to participate in it.
Some criticize the “parties to the pact for Mexico” only in order to join in some way the bourgeois party in fashion (MoReNa). Others advocate the “self-determination” of ethnic groups, without taking into consideration the wage and market relations among them. They criticize the devastation of nature and the destruction from a pro-capitalist point of view.
To end the wage system, the working class needs, in the first place, to constitute itself as a Party. The current struggles all over the world are an opportunity to bring communist ideas to the masses and build the Party.  Otherwise we will not liberate ourselves from the capitalist-imperialist carnage.
We invite you to join our effort to build the International Communist Workers’ Party (ICWP).  Read and spread Red Flag!
