Anti-Fascism. Anti-Colonialism. Anti-Imperialism.
Every Socialist must oppose Fascism, Colonialism and Imperialism. Whether we Socialist Communists or Socialist Non-Communist. Whether we are Marxist or Anarchist. We must all oppose Fascism, Colonialism and Imperialism. Any argument against this is counter-revolutionary.
Fascism is a form of far-right, chauvinism which in more transitional is defined as ultranationalism. Fascism is forcible suppression of opposition, and strong regimentation of society and of the economy which came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe. The first fascist movements emerged in Italy during World War I, before spreading to other European countries. Opposed to liberalism, Marxism, and Anarchism, fascism is placed on the far-right within the traditional left–right spectrum.
Colonialism is the policy of a state seeking to extend or retain its authority over other people or territories, generally with the aim of economic dominance. The colonizing country seeks to benefit from the colonized country or land mass. In the process, colonizers impose their religion, economics, and medicinal practices on the natives. Colonialism is the relationship of domination of indigenous by foreign invaders where the latter rule in pursuit of their interests.
Imperialism is the highest stage of Capitalism. As Lenin told us over 100 years ago, imperialism is not a foreign policy of one or another country, but a particular stage in the history of the capitalist mode of production. The idea that imperialism is a world system is often treated as a fact so obvious that it requires no further comment. Unfortunately, the misuse of the concept of imperialism in much current communist debate is strong evidence to the contrary.
These structures keep Capitalism alive, if we as Socialists ever let any of these three superstructures remain, this will literally destroy the planet. Fascism maintains class collaboration and kills culture, ironically what people accuse Communists of, is what Fascists actually do. We need to oppose Colonialism because Imperialism depends on it. Empowering the indigenous is essential in pushing Eco-socialism, there is so much we can learn from them. Imperialism is the primary contradiction, to ignore the glaring issue of Imperialism is to become pro-Capitalism, Capitalism will kill us all.
