AGAINST WAR, FASCISM, NATIONALISM AND RACISM

SOLIDARITY WITH REFUGEES AND IMMIGRANTS

We are in the middle of a huge humanitarian and an unprecedented social crisis, as the spread of the global pandemic is revealing in the most emphatic way the state and capitalism’s criminal nature. On one hand, the social majority is facing new and yet harsher terms of exploitation and repression. On the other hand, the state is defending its power and the accumulation of wealth in the hands of the bosses, by expanding the state of emergency and depriving society from the necessary resources to deal with this disaster. In this condition, thousands of immigrants and refugees are piled up in concentration camps under horrible living conditions, without any available means of protecting themselves against the pandemic. The state of exception imposed on them leads to their extermination and consists a state and capitalist crime.

War and fascism are the only “response” the system can give to its own deep and total crisis, to its own contradictions that result from its basic principle – the oppression and exploitation of one human being by another.

At a global level, the political and economic bosses are attempting an unconditional attack against the people of the capitalist periphery through war, military operations, subversion of regimes and enforcement of new ones, aiming to control whole areas, sources of wealth, even whole populations. This is a condition in which millions of people are condemned to poverty, sickness and forced immigration as a prerequisite for ensuring the over-accumulation of wealth in the hands of global financial elites and for the rearrangement of geopolitical balance of power in the context of international competitions between global, regional and local powers.

The thousands of dead refugees and immigrants at land and sea borders, all those locked up in modern concentration camps under abject conditions, those imprisoned in a racist state of exception, are the effects of the murderous anti-immigration “deterrence” policies and the building of Fortress-Europe.

The “walls” that are raised are not only useful for keeping the outcasts, the “surplus populations”, out of Europe by all means, but also to promote the fascistization of western societies, to establish a condition of fear, control and hate, aiming at the acceptance of their exploitation by the bosses.

Against the bankrupt world of the state and capital, against the war declared by the dominants on the repressed of this world, as anarchists, we struggle with class and internationalist solidarity as our weapon, promoting the organization of the counterattack of the exploited for the destruction of this decayed world. Locals, immigrants and refugees, all together, let’s fight from below against poverty, impoverishment, repression, subjugation, let’s strengthen and defend all fields of social and class resistance targeted by repression and organize new ones. Against fascism, intolerance, war, repression and exploitation, the cause of global Social Revolution, of building a new society of solidarity, equality and freedom on the ruins of the world of authority…is always alive!
