A is for Alienation
Why are you so fed up?
B is for Bolshevism
Bolshevism is the model of democracy and unity that won the world’s first socialist revolution
C is for Capital
Capital, invested in human labour power and machinery, proved to be the most effective means yet for one class to exploit another.
D is for Democracy and Dictatorship
Marxists make a distinction between forms of government and the class nature of the state. We always ask, “which class interests are served by the state?”
E is for Exploitation
Marx proved that exploitation is caused not just by the sharp practices of some bad capitalists, but is part and parcel of the profit system itself.
F is for Fascism
In all its forms there is only one answer to fascism. Mass working class action, at the earliest opportunity, to physically and morally smash the fascist organisations.
G is for God
Only the overthrow of the profit system can create the conditions for the withering away of humanity’s psychological need for religious belief
M is for Materialism
Philosophical materialism demonstrates why socialism is the necessary outcome of the capitalist crisis.
O is for Oppression
Oppression is a fundamental, necessary part of capitalism, and can only be destroyed along with it.
R is for Reformism and Revolution
Reformism begins by redefining the socialist goal – and ends by rejecting it altogether
S is for Socialism: the transition to Communism
The struggle for the socialist goal is not an optional extra but the glue that binds daily struggles together
