International Proletariat 46

If slavery is maintained by force then it can and must be ended by force, force not necessarily based on arms/ammunition (that is applicable only in exceptional cases) in which we, the workers, the wage slaves can not match the masters whose arsenals are capable of annihilating the earth many times. Workers, with nothing but their skin to sell in the market society and not every one of us gets a buyer, can gather force rather can become force by organizing themselves on the basis of common interest. It is here the missing link between class-in-itself and class-for-itself -- class consciousness --  becomes critical. This needs ability to comprehend the  nature of the major contradiction -- the economic contradiction -- as the basis and cause of all the other contradiction and articulate. This needs unlearning the values and perspectives that we have acquired through our socialization and training without conscious will or effort and have internalized them as the final truth, because the ruling class ideas are the ruling ideas also, as Marx has said.  The ideological apparatuses of the corporate-state or more coercive than the coercive apparatuses that instill false consciousnesses like war nationalism/racism/communalism and overplay their internal minor or artificial contradictions to blunt the edge of the major contradiction. The lumpen bourgeois section of workers must unlearn their acquired get disillusioned and realize their identity as a wage worker and join the ranks with their less fortunate or unfortunate (unemployed) and help in creating a new Workers International, as the oppression of the corporate capitalism is global and hence resistance too must be global. For that workers of the world or majority of them must unlearn the acquired moralities and emancipate themselves from the illusion of being part of ruling class and workers from the illusion of imaginary communities including the nation. For example an American, even  if surviving on unemployment allowance, would proudly claim that "we" have killed so many Iraqis s or Afghans....... with out realizing that like them  the poor soldiers who kill the poor Afghans ..  or even Bush or Obama have nothing against or danger from those hapless victims. They kill Afghans or Iraqis  to maintain the shackles wage slavery in America. The workers of the world need to unlearn these acquired values and organize themselves at local and global levels to emancipate the world from wage slavery. .
