For the railway tragedy in Greece.

For anyone who is coolminded, not cynical.
The first conclusions.
1. There are contemporary technical safety valves for the traffic of trains that are already applied in many countries in the damned abominable imperialist European Union, which are not applied to the Greek railway network, although they have - if I'm not mistaken - already been approved and probably already bought (?) here in Greece by the competent private company, which the competent ministry must control.
2. The workers' union has already warned about the lack of security stressing the importance of the lack of staff. This factor may not be enough to explain the whole problem but the union is telling an essential truth.
3. It is very possible that a significant part of the responsibility belongs to one or two people, responsible for the regulation of traffic, but this does not absolve the state, the government and the private company. In the final analysis, the state, the private company, the minister, etc., were and remain responsible as the co-responsible superior authority for this, that is, for the unimaginable apathy and immorality in carrying out a task of supervision critical to the safety of citizens.
4. Privatization as a general solution for all diseases and all nonsense has been over for years worldwide. Especially in Greece, however, and in countries where lumpen capitalism prevails, privatization is not only a non-solution to other problems, but can mean more lumpenization.
Neither state nor private sovereignty over the public economic good are solutions, or even panaceas, when what is called for is social conscience, democratic control and the assumption of responsibilities.
There are no magic solutions.
There are principles and values that are supposed to exist in practice, but do not exist in practice, and also there are principles and values that are not considered worthy of discussion but should be considered and implemented, such as the principle of institutionally enshrined Worker's discourse.
The workers have an opinion, a Reason, an experience, and they usually tell the truth about their work, but there is no social institution that gives this Reason a crucial and decisive status.

Για όποιον είναι ψύχραιμος, όχι κυνικός. Τα πρώτα συμπεράσματα.
1. Υπάρχουν συγχρόνου τεχνικής δικλείδες ασφαλείας για την κυκλοφορία των τραίνων που ήδη εφαρμόζονται σε πολλές χώρες στην καταραμένη αποτρόπαιη ιμπεριαλιστική Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση, οι όποιες δεν εφαρμόζονται στο ελληνικό σιδηροδρομικό δίκτυο, αν και έχουν -αν δεν κάνω λάθος- ήδη εγκριθεί και μάλλον ήδη αγοραστεί(;) εδώ στην Ελλάδα από την αρμόδια ιδιωτική εταιρεία, την οποία το αρμόδιο υπουργείο οφείλει να ελέγχει.
2. Το συνδικάτο των εργατών έχει ήδη προειδοποιήσει για την έλλειψη ασφάλειας τονίζοντας την σημασία τής έλλειψης προσωπικού. Μπορεί να μην φτάνει να εξηγήσει αυτός ο παράγοντας όλο το πρόβλημα αλλά το συνδικάτο λέει μια ουσιαστική αλήθεια.
3. Είναι πολύ πιθανό σημαντικό μέρος τής ευθύνης να ανήκει σε ένα ή δύο άτομα, αρμόδια για την ρύθμιση τής κυκλοφορίας, αλλά αυτό δεν αθωώνει το κράτος, την κυβέρνηση και την ιδιωτική εταιρεία. Σε τελική ανάλυση και για αυτό, δηλαδή για την αδιανόητη απάθεια και ανηθικότητα στην επιτέλεση ενός κρίσιμου για την ασφάλεια των πολιτών έργου εποπτείας, το κράτος, η ιδιωτική εταιρεία, ο υπουργός κ.λπ ήταν και παραμένουν υπεύθυνοι ως συνυπεύθυνη προϊστάμενη αρχή.
4. Η ιδιωτικοποίηση ως γενική λύση για πάσα νόσο και πάσα μαλακία μας τελείωσε, εδώ και χρόνια παγκοσμίως. Ειδικά στην Ελλάδα όμως και σε χώρες που επικρατεί ένας λούμπεν καπιταλισμός η ιδιωτικοποίηση όχι μόνον είναι μη λύση άλλων προβλημάτων αλλά μπορεί να σημαίνει περισσότερη λουμπενοποίηση. Ούτε η κρατική ούτε η ιδιωτική κυριαρχία στο δημόσιο οικονομικό αγαθό αποτελούν λύσεις, ή έστω πανάκειες, όταν το ζητούμενο είναι η κοινωνική συνείδηση, ο δημοκρατικός έλεγχος και η ανάληψη ευθυνών. Δεν υπάρχουν μαγικές λύσεις. Υπάρχουν αρχές και αξίες που υποτίθεται υφίστανται στην πράξη, αλλά δεν υφίστανται στην πράξη, και επίσης υπάρχουν αρχές και αξίες που δεν θεωρούνται άξιες λόγου αλλά θα έπρεπε να θεωρούνται και να υλοποιούνται, όπως η αρχή τού θεσμικά κατοχυρωμένου εργατικού Λόγου. Οι εργάτες έχουν άποψη, Λόγο, εμπειρία, και συνήθως λένε την αλήθεια για τη δουλειά τους, αλλά δεν υπάρχει κοινωνικός θεσμός που να δίνει σε αυτόν τον Λόγο υπόσταση καίρια και αποφασιστική.

The criminal negligence of an employee or supervisor in a production process that takes place under conditions of organizational dissolution, anachronism, and predatory privatization does exist as criminal negligence, but it is not allowed to become the pretext and false argument of all those who caused this with their policies the grid of unacceptable objective conditions.
I want to see now how it will react and how quickly the famous independent judiciary will react, and I also want to see how deep it will cast its judicial net.
If we again see acquittal by cover-up of predatory private companies, then we will ask the gentlemen of the liberal space:
Who and what gives rise to the populists in this country, but also everywhere?
The public sector trade unionists?
The Civil servants?
The workers?
Are you going to start the propaganda attack game again against all but the predatory private capitalist sector?

Η όποια εγκληματική αμέλεια ενός εργαζομένου ή επόπτη σε μια παραγωγική διαδικασία που συντελείται υπό συνθήκες οργανωτικής διάλυσης, αναχρονισμού, και ληστρικής ιδιωτικοποίησης, υπάρχει μεν ως εγκληματική αμέλεια, αλλά δεν επιτρέπεται να γίνεται η πρόφαση και το ψευδοεπιχείρημα όλων αυτών που με τις πολιτικές τους προκάλεσαν αυτό το πλέγμα των απαράδεκτων αντικειμενικών συνθηκών.
Θέλω να δω τώρα πως θα αντιδράσει και πόσο γρήγορα θα αντιδράσει η περίφημη ανεξάρτητη δικαιοσύνη, και θέλω να δω επίσης πόσο βαθιά θα ρίξει το δικαστικό της δίχτυ.
Αν δούμε πάλι αθώωση δια συγκάλυψης των λησταρχικών ιδιωτικών επιχειρήσεων, τότε θα ρωτήσουμε τούς κυρίους τού φιλελεύθερου χώρου:
Ποιος και τι γεννάει τους λαϊκιστές σε αυτή τη χώρα, αλλά και παντού;
Οι συνδικαλιστές τού δημοσίου;
Οι δημόσιοι υπάλληλοι;
Οι εργάτες;
Θα αρχίσετε πάλι το παιχνίδι τής προπαγανδιστικής επίθεσης εναντίον όλων πλην των αρπακτικών τού ιδιωτικού καπιταλιστικού τομέα;

We are not quick to judge, but tell me, how is it that ordinary workers are always right when they talk about the subject of their work?
Is that a coincidence too?
No.
Workers, even through their bureaucratic trade unionists, always tell the truth, warn, demand solutions that don't only concern their wages.
It is a lie what those who accuse workers and trade unionists of only being interested in money and positions are saying.
This is a distorted depiction of reality.
Ask the workers, the workers in a production process, finally, to find out what is going on there.
All this propaganda malice against workers, employees, especially the wider public sector, has blinded the society, and besides its other negative results is dangerous for the safety of the citizens.

Δεν κρίνουμε βιαστικά, αλλά πείτε μου, πως γίνεται και οι απλοί εργαζόμενοι έχουν πάντα δίκιο όταν μιλάνε για το αντικείμενο τής εργασίας τους;
Είναι σύμπτωση κι αυτό;
Όχι.
Οι εργαζόμενοι, ακόμα και μέσω των γραφειοκρατών συνδικαλιστών τους, λένε πάντα την αλήθεια, προειδοποιούν, απαιτούν λύσεις που δεν αφορούν μόνον το μισθό τους. Είναι ψέμα αυτό που λένε όσοι κατηγορούν τους εργαζόμενους και τους συνδικαλιστές ότι ενδιαφέρονται μόνο για τα λεφτά και τις θέσεις.
Πρόκειται για μια στρεβλή απεικόνιση τής πραγματικότητας.
Ρωτήστε τους εργαζομένους, τούς εργάτες σε μια παραγωγική διαδικασία, επιτέλους, για να μάθετε τι γίνεται εκεί.
Όλη αυτή η προπαγανδιστική κακοήθεια εναντίον των εργαζόμενων, εργατών, υπαλλήλων, ειδικά του ευρύτερου δημοσίου τομέα, έχει τυφλώσει τη κοινωνία, και πέραν των άλλων αρνητικών αποτελεσμάτων της είναι επικίνδυνη για την ασφάλεια των πολιτών.

For the railway tragedy in Greece.
I remember my German teacher, Joseph, a Bavarian philologist who knew ancient Greek perfectly (definitely better than me), modern Greek, Latin, and the Italian language.
When Joseph was living in Germany, he was a railway employee.
The railway and its degree of organization remains an indicator of the real development of the productive forces of a country.
When I was talking with Joseph about what a railway means, he explained to me in detail how difficult a job it is, how important is the organization, the detail, the complexity of the work of the railway networks, etc.
The highly educated and ultra-conservative (Bavarian he is!) German friend and teacher of mine loved his work, being a serious person, he loved Greece, both ancient and new, moreover he proved this, he left them all back to Germany and immigrated to Greece, but when the subject of the discussion it was the Greek railway, he told me emphatically that this is a "criminal organization".

Experimental texts about line.

Experimental texts about line (1). The "right-wing" version of the socialist transition. [Following in the experimental text (2), the "leftmost" version of the socialist transition].

Now, especially in this day and age, and from now on, there is something about the radical socialist libertarian movement, which has always been true, but in the past there were violations of it that had no immediate political consequences for the movement.
Now it has these effects.
What is this?
Democratic strategy is not only necessary for the proper replication and substantial success of any anti-capitalist effort, but is an immediate necessity for the very existence of radical socialism within the existing capitalist world.
That is, the anti-democratic, whether bureaucratic or sectarian (they seem more innocent, but they are not) ideological and practical logics, destroy this radical movement (for the ultimate prevaile of a classless society), by preventing it from even existing within of capitalism in mass and therefore essentially militant terms.
It is for me a huge, gigantic mistake what the whole of the radical intelligentsia is doing everywhere, that is, trying to go itself to some ideal direct-democratic or libertarian past, as a moment, a sperm, etc., because in this way it reproduces exactly those elements that were creating -through ellipticity them- this very impasse.
The reduction to this indeed containing positive elements but democratically elliptical ideological political practical past is unfortunately not done in a truly critical and self-critical way, which is evident by the aggressiveness of the way in which any attempt to critically reconstruct the leftist or anarchist past is made. More or less all this new effort is made in the warped light or half-light of the insubstantial incrimination of the class enemy, who is discovered to be harboring in the bowels of a class or anti-state consciousness which supposedly has failed to keep its virginal purity intact. .
This thing is not a democratic libertarian critique of an old self that also contained authoritarian anti-democratic elements, this thing is an anti-democratic critique of an old anti-democratic ''self'', that is, a critique that deftly eliminates some authoritarian elements of that ''self'' while simultaneously reinforcing some other, equally authoritarian ones .
A democratic path to a classless society does not mean a class compromise with sections of the bourgeoisie, but it means that:
1. This society cannot exist without the active free and voluntary agreement of the vast majority of the population of a country and the entire world people.
2. The democratic movement of working people which sets such a great goal cooperates fervently and openly but without class compromise with whatever section of the imperialist or non-imperialist ruling class or bourgeois liberal democratic elite stands for the democratic principle of majority rule with absolute respect of the minority and individual and minority rights.
3. All this cannot be ensured without general and free elections for the election of elected representatives.
The democratic exit from capitalism, without necessarily (on the contrary) meaning a peaceful exit, sounds like a utopia to the ears of today's leftists and anarchists.
Don't be fooled, some, even the neo-leftists who are sometimes enthroned in bourgeois government positions, listen to this request, this perspective, with the same suspicion, like a utopia, actually grumbling about some "negative correlations of forces", otherwise "I would show you ", they say, with a shining eye.
People cannot understand that a mass, therefore real exit from capitalism that does not mean another non-capitalist (or state-capitalist) statist monster, means one thing and one thing only:
A democratic road to socialism.
----
 
Experimental texts about line (2). The "leftmost" version of the socialist transition].

What I consider to be the only alternative "further left" strategy for achieving a classless society to the strategy of a radical democratic socialism (not to be confused, despite their "affinities", with the new left-wing social democratic democratic socialism) is the strategy of a Marxistically-fertilized anarcho-communism.
Here my heart likes it more, it burns, but I have to put the two alternatives in a equallity.
Let's see.
Who knows the great revolutionary strategist but full of passions and ultra-left contradictions Guy Debord?
It is worth reading his work, despite its various lunatic aspects, to see this strategy which also has lunatic but solid neo-Hegelian underpinnings, and marks the most vividly Marxist-inspired (self-evidently anti-Leninist) anarcho-communism of our time.
Let us stick to one of his proposals described in one of his brilliant phrases: "non-state dictatorship of the proletariat".
At another point, Guy Debord, with the cunning of a strategic ideological genius, had predicted, for he was certainly it tormented him, and probably worried, the reappearance of the concept-value and idea of democracy as a refuge for all the Stalinist and Trotskyist ruins when they will arrived to the historical wall that would crush their Bonapartist and dead-end adventurism.
It would be worth reading in his writings with what vitriolic irony he hurls this especially ideological prophecy, he was a real infernal revolutionary dragon spewing flames from his mouth.
I'm not flattering him, I'm a humble devil's advocate who wants to cause disruption to all vanguards, including the ''Situationistic'' anarcho-communist vanguard that he himself founded as a key appendage of revolutionary hell.
All power in the workers' councils and only in them, abolition of all territorial-ethnic and other divisions, absolute abolition of social hierarchies, re-appropriation of experienced creative time, abolition of wage labor but also of labor for free creative action, but, but, and here is the gist of his position: non-state dictatorship of the proletariat, exercising an immediate revolutionary destruction of any institution of mediation of the living forces by any representative or "political" institution including workers' "democracy".
Guy Debord is not a "democratist" by any means, and accepts the existence of a moment of absolute power of the working class (dictatorship of the proletariat) as long as it means the immediate, without delay, predominance of a non-state workers' communism and the abolition of any state or central-regional authoritarian institution of sovereignty.
This, yes, could be something that would not be related to some "democratic transition to socialism/communism" or the existence of a "workers' democracy", but I will do injustice to Guy Debord and the complex philosophical, artistic, revolutionary work of if I don't let you read it for yourself.

Bonapartism is like an onion-mirror..

Bonapartism is like an onion-mirror with many skins (or peels), which all left-wing Bonapartists see when it is the their "next" Bonapartism to replace the previous other, but do not see themselves as the previous Bonapartism.
Only the later leftist-marxist Bonapartists saw  some ''leftist-marxist selves'' as Bonapartists.
Leninist Bonapartism showed the Mensheviks their own bourgeois liberal second-internationalist Bonapartism, Stalinist Bonapartism showed the Trotskyist Bonapartists who were the real Leninists the adventurist Bonapartism of Leninism by replacing it with their own Stalinist Bonapartism, and the Maoists who were the real post-Stalinist Bonapartists they showed to the real continue of Stalinist Bonapartism who were the Khrushchev-Brezhnevists (Stalin after he gained a lot of weight and he's got a big fat belly) the their Stalinist Bonapartism.
In the end, a Yeltsin and a Gorbachev come and close the shop, because the onion of "Marxist" Bonapartism also has an end, capitalism itself without "socialist" names and a mafia-like private sector now formed..by bonapartistic way.
Sometimes this game with the mirror onion seems to me to exist from the first Marxist moment, from the moment of the big explosion called Marx, who, looking at Louis Bonaparte in the mirror of his historical dialectic, peeling the mirror onion of bourgeois revolutions as if he saw himself as continuing in a series of Bonapartist unfoldings of the "Marxist self."
--
For reasons of meticulous clarity, I note at the end that apart from Lenin who spoke with a similar example about Thermidor that the Mensheviks would bring (analogously something like a Bonapartist version of the revolution, which however referred to the conservative deviation brought about by the "Thermidorian" regime after the execution of Robespierre) about Bonapartism in relation to a socialist revolution literally only Trotsky spoke, while the Stalinists spoke about something similar about Trotskyism and their relations between each other with other related terms, such as left or right revisionism (the Maoists)..and other labyrinths.
The most classical terminology of the phenomenon (with two different, as we have seen, but similar historical-analogical versions are of Marx himself, Lenin and Trotsky).
--
Are you saying that Bakunin was right after all?
Probably, but he and ''his'' movement had other problems, of a different nature, which also have a similar quality to the Bonapartist phenomenon.

Δεκέμβριος, μη-επετειακό..

Τιμώ την εξέγερση τού Δεκέμβρη, γιατί δεν την τιμώ επετειακά, και έχω την φιλοσοφική έπαρση να λέω ότι μόνον έτσι τιμάται αυτή η εξέγερση, όταν δεν την τιμάς επετειακά.
Όποιος δεν αγγίχθηκε από αυτή την εξέγερση δεν έχει καταλάβει τίποτα από αυτό που έγινε τότε και από αυτό που θεμελιώθηκε τότε ως το πραγματικό μέλλον αυτής τής χώρας ως μιας ελευθεριακής και τολμώ να πω πραγματικά δημοκρατικής χώρας.
Δεν ήμουν τότε ενεργό στοιχείο τής εξέγερσης ούτε όμως απλός θεατής της.
Θυμάμαι όμως την μέθη, έλλογη μέθη, τον πραγματικό ρυθμό μιας εξέγερσης και τον φόβο και τον τρόμο «συναδέλφων» στη δουλειά μου που έπειτα αποδείχτηκαν σάπιοι, όχι ότι δεν φαίνονταν, διεφθαρμένοι, χαφιέδες και οικονομικά εγκληματικά στοιχεία. 
Θυμάμαι πόσο φοβόντουσαν, θυμάμαι πόσο μισούσαν, και θυμάμαι πόσο αλαλάζαμε εμείς, όσοι ζούσαν ακόμα, περνώντας αμήχανα σαν θεατές και μη θεατές από τα «πεδία των μαχών», ποιών μαχών δηλαδή, οι αστυνομικοί και οι ρουφιάνοι είχαν κρυφτεί σαν ποντίκια.
Αυτά, και τίποτα άλλο, μεγαλόστομο και μεγαλοπιασμένο..

Personal (perhaps heterodox) conclusions from the youth uprising in December 2008 in Athens.

Personal (perhaps heterodox) conclusions from the youth uprising in December 2008 in Athens.
1. 
In December I learned not to celebrate anniversaries. 
Our lives are founded every moment.
2. 
The rebellious youth of this country decisively turned their steering wheel towards the rejection of statism of the nation state and statism in general.
3. The well-meaning libertarian values that flourished in the West in the last centuries, and spread to a boundless globalism, were established in the youth of this country, in its most active part.
4. 
Anarchism has acquired eternal roots in this country, so even if it is tormented by sectarianism, especially here, it will be an integral part of any future insurrectionary or revolutionary process. 
Anarchism in this country after 2008 became bureaucratized, it became a fashion, it fell into the bureaucratic spider web of the radical left, but nevertheless it has been established as a structural element of its culture, so in the future it will come back in other, more vibrants forms, it will be bureaucratized again but again it will come back.
5. 
I am not an anarchist but I have to recognize the reality in which I live. 
My confrontation with anarchism will continue "infinitely" but nevertheless I consider it as a current, a crazy but living current.

Μη-επετειακό για τον Δεκέμβρη.

The last major riot in Greece took place in December 2008 when a police officer murdered a teenager, Alexandros Grigoropoulos.
This uprising have been politically-and-ideologically exploited by the extreme left and sectarian anarchism, but that's okay, the main thing is that Athens stopped being under the control of power for 2 weeks, and that's the foundation for the future of this country, whatever that they say-and-believe against the youth the leftist/anarchist bureaucrat-exploiters and the centrist/rightist/far-right terrorists-exploiters .

Αυτός ο πόλεμος μάς αλλάζει όλους.

Παρόλο που η Δύση δεν ξεκίνησε αυτό τον πόλεμο, ένα μεγάλο μέρος τής παγκόσμιας κοινής γνώμης παραμένει πεπεισμένο ότι η ουσιαστική αιτία τής εκκίνησης αυτού τού πολέμου ήταν η Δύση.
Ένα άλλο ιδεολογικοποιημένο μέρος της παγκόσμιας κοινής γνώμης (περισσότερο μάλλον αριστερού ιδεολογικού-αξιακού προσανατολισμού) πιστεύει μεν ότι και η Ρωσία και οι άλλες ανατολικές ιμπεριαλιστικές δυνάμεις ήταν υπεύθυνες επί το ίσο για αυτό τον πόλεμο, αλλά για να το αποδείξει αυτό που λέει χρησιμοποιεί τα ψευδή επιχειρήματα τής ρωσικής πλευράς, άρα είναι στη πραγματικότητα μέρος αυτού του ευρύτερου αντιδυτικισμού που έχει πλέον σπάσει σαν ιδεολογικό απόστημα και μολύνει μεν τον κόσμο ακόμα, αλλά αρχίζει πλέον να παύει να έχει την μολυντική δύναμη που είχε προτού γίνει αυτός ο πόλεμος.
Αυτός ο πόλεμος μάς αλλάζει όλους.
Εγώ ανακάλυψα άλλη μια φορά πόσο μακρυά είμαι πλέον από την ελληνική αριστερά, η ελληνική αριστερά αποδείχθηκε για μένα μια από τις πιο σκοτεινές σεκταριστικές αριστερές δυνάμεις στον πλανήτη, όχι μόνον ως μια νεοσταλινική αριστερά, αλλά ακόμα δεν έχω καταλάβει τι γίνεται αλλού στον κόσμο, όσον αφορά την αριστερή συνείδηση παγκοσμίως.
Κάποια θετικά σημάδια δεν αναιρούν τα ανησυχητικά σημάδια, και το αντίστροφο. Ίσως τα αρνητικότερα φαινόμενα εμφανίζονται τελικά πάλι στον "παγκόσμιο νότο", όχι μόνο στην Λατινική Αμερική, όπου ξέραμε τη δύναμή του αντιδυτικισμού και τού σταλινισμού, αλλά ακόμα λ.χ στο Ιράν όπου η αριστερά φαίνονταν να είναι εκ των πραγμάτων πιο ικανή να διαβλέπει τον κίνδυνο τού αντιδραστικού αντιδυτικισμού ως καμμένη από χυλό που φυσάει και το γιαούρτι.
Δεν είναι έτσι όμως.
Ακόμα και οι Χεκματιστές που δέχονται τα πυρά όλων των υπόλοιπων αριστερών και κομμουνιστών ως πολύ φιλο-δυτικού προσανατολισμού, εκδήλωσαν άθλιες απόψεις και αφηγήματα που σε μεγάλο βαθμό προσέγγισαν τα τυπικά σεκταριστικά ουδετερόφιλα ή ακόμα και νεοσταλινικά ημι-ουδετερόφιλα αντιδυτικά αφηγήματα τύπου ΚΚΕ στην Ελλάδα κ.λπ.
Μεγάλη απογοήτευση για μένα, το τέλος των τελευταίων ελπίδων ότι κάπου στον κόσμο μια μαζική αριστερά δεν θα έχει μολυνθεί από τον καρκίνο αυτό που είδαμε να κάνει μετάσταση σε όλη την αριστερά παντού, όταν η Ρωσία εισέβαλε στην Ουκρανία.
Το σοκ από την αριστερή αποβλάκωση όμως, στην οποία συμπεριλαμβάνονται νομίζω και διαφορετικές μεταξύ τους ακραίες αντικαπιταλιστικές μαρξιστικές ομαδούλες στα όρια τού αναρχικού χώρου, δεν έφτασε σε ένταση το σοκ που νιώσαμε όταν διαβάσαμε την τοποθέτηση των Ζαπατίστας τις πρώτες μέρες τού πολέμου. Δεν έχω αναφερθεί σε αυτό, άλλη φορά θα αναφερθώ.
Δεν ήμαστε καινούργιοι στις απογοητεύσεις, ούτε κρύβουμε ότι σε βάθος χρόνου, με βάση και κάποιες στιγμές καμπές, είχαμε μετατοπιστεί ήδη (πληθυντικός γελοιότητας) πιο κεντρώα, οι σύντροφοι θα το έλεγαν δεξιά στροφή ή σοσιαλδημοκρατική στροφή, αν ήταν λίγο ευγενικοί, διότι οι περισσότεροι είναι αυταρχικοί μέχρι το μεδούλι και προτιμούν πιο χυδαίους ταξικισμούς.
Τώρα όμως έφτασε η κρίσιμη ώρα.
Παραιτούμαι φίλοι, έτσι απλά.

That the Russian fascism it says about Ukraine (that it is an instrument of the West that threatens Russia, since it does not accept its assimilation into the Great Russian nation, etc.) the same says Turkish fascism, through Erdogan and other Turkish fascists about my country Greece.
The rapist misogynist homophobic murderer always reverses reality.
The first ''historical teachers'' in this reversal of reality are the Turkish, Russian, Italian and German fascist rapists.
--
I don't find anyone who does not succumb to some "whataboutism", the anti-Westerners now, the Westernists before.
Then the westernists will do it, then the anti-westerners, and so on.
This is a form of what Hegel called "bad infinity."
You have all disappointed me.

I said and I mean it that I closed my accounts with the lies and dishonesty, so from here I tell you what I think is right for all of us, I mean those who have a special interest in Iran and Kurdistan, like me the foreigner, your uninvited friend.
I no longer consider myself a leftist although I firmly believe in a classless democratic society where the producers will reap all their labor products and manage the production process themselves.
I don't believe that the left and Marxism can help achieve this goal anymore.
I believe that in today's conditions, which have a long historical time horizon, the emerging non-Western capitalism-imperialism is worse than the old sinful and bloody Western capitalism-imperialism.
I am not suggesting that the Iranian and Kurdish communists hand over the keys of their country and movement to the Western rulers, I am asking them to understand that the Eastern rulers, who are the ones directly oppressing them, are now worse, they are fascists in every sense depth and breadth of the word.
The not only tactical, perhaps indirect, strategic alliance (within strict limits) with the Western world, which is not only Western capitals states, etc., is under these conditions a one-way street for movements like that of Iran-Kurdistan.
No illusions, with strict limits, with a gun in hand.
--
 
I don't idealize the West, and especially Europe.
That's why I'm sure for example that at least half of Italians are fascist Mussolini nostalgics.
On the outside they are good and kind people but inside them they hide what PP Pasolini showed so penetratingly, dark fascists who fantasizing an absolute misogynist homophobic anti-worker state.

 من به دنیا آمدم تا به تو کمک کنم گناه کنی
 
 
Ιωάννης Τζανάκος

If you friends are materialists, I am Nebuchadnezzar!!

 
The anti-fascist struggle, the real antifa, means -probably not just temporary- alliance with parts of Capital and Imperialism. 
This was amply proved in World War 2.
Also, in the 2nd world war it turned out to something else, which the holy leftist/anarchist, anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist consciousness not accept (many holy sanctities gathered here and I must perform some exorcism probably).
What did it turn out to be?
It turned out that many of these capitalist bourgeois forces (not all) that actually fought against fascism had strong clearly colonialist imperialist proto-fascist tendencies both as ideological and political factors (there were, however, bourgeois liberal-democrats who did not have such tendencies).
This is the harsh, bitter, unimaginable truth, for the holy unsullied virgin leftist/anarchist historical consciousness.
What did the logical and pragmatic leftists and anarchists do in practice, when faced with the dilemma, with Churchill or with Hitler?
They did not respond with neutrality, no.
They said "with Churchill!" but also "with Stalin" (by mistake anti-fascist, he wanted to distribute Europe with Hitler, but Hitler as a true psychopathic narcissist could not bear to accept such a realistic totalitarian proposal, and attacked the Soviet Union).
But here there was a problem with the holy consciousness of the people who still believe that they are the representatives of the God-Allah of history on earth (the poor Yahweh bears no responsibility for this abnormal minimum-or-maximum gnosticism).
Pragmatism is good to "get the job done", but us as pure virgins with immaculate holy consciences? they said, the leftist demigods of history..
How will we restore our dualistic theology, where the good "living labor" is the one completely heterogeneous pole and the bad "Capital, Imperialism etc" the other???? (evil has many forms while good always has one, hahaha).
Here we had polyamorous orgy sex with Churchill, how are we now going to revive our dualistic conflict with these monsters?? (like e.g. Churchill, but actually Capital).
Many responses were given by the leftist/anarchist priesthood:
First, well-known, "capitalism is to blame, we just made tactical alliances"..
Second, more vicious, far-left and bitter, "we made tactical alliances, but maybe we made them badly, we had to continue the hardest class struggle without any compromise with parts of Capital".
Imagine such a continuation on the front line of war with the Nazis! these people are idiots, like those today who ask Ukrainian workers not to fight Putin's mass-rapist murderous fascists, because "deep down" they are also.. "class brothers".
Another wing of the left describes all this in even narrower terms of tactics:  
''We simply take arms from any imperialism that is convenient for us at the time that another, openly fascist, imperialism attacks us, at the time that it attacks us, and besides, all this is not a historical alliance, we are not in a structured alliance, it is not that we, also, participating in an imperialist war...''
But comrades, it is also this, although it is not only this (we have analyzed it, but it is obvious, e.g. also the second world war was imperialist but the one imperialism that participated was worse, and we chose the other one that was less worse ).
Why do leftists/anarchists lie all the time??
For their holy holy pure virgin dualistic consciousness can do nothing but say something, for which the sinful body cannot follow, the body must sin to live, this is the holy Lie!
If you friends are materialists, I am Nebuchadnezzar!!
