The title of this article may seem rather strange, as all previous Communist Parties have represented one country. It may be objected that the Soviet Union represented a number of Independent Soviet Socialist Republics, each of which was free to separate at any time. It is also entirely possible that each Independent Republic had its own separate Communist Party, at least in the early years, starting in 1917. That is not clear. It is clear that ‘’times change’’, and in fact, there is a huge difference between Russia of 1917, at the time of the Revolution, and our current situation.
That in no way changes the fact that our current Second American Revolution, which is just now breaking out into full and open rebellion, will closely resemble the Great Russian October Soviet Socialist Revolution. It just means that there are notable differences, which must not be ignored.
Incidentally, for the purposes of this article, I refer to the country of the United States as ‘’America’’, and the citizens of that country as ‘’Americans’’, out of respect for the people of that country, as that is the nomenclature which they use. It is not entirely accurate, but as they are in the forefront of the International Communist Movement, it is appropriate to make certain rather inconsequential concessions.
Further, as I suggested in a previous article, the current American Revolution has already spread across international borders, and not just into Canada. The British King Charles, has already stripped his brother, Andrew, of all titles of nobility, in an effort to distance the ‘’Throne’’, from the Epstein Scandal, as well as the rest of the American Revolution.
As well, there are unconfirmed reports that certain high ranking members of the Israeli government may be involved in that same Epstein Scandal. Without doubt, the American Revolution has already spread across international borders. We must respond in kind. That response must involve the creation of an International Communist Party, Dictatorship of the Proletariat. Such a Party can coordinate the activities of the working classes, the proletariat, of various countries.
This is to say that the proletariat of numerous countries, and not just those in North America and Western Europe, are now much more advanced, more cultured, than were their Russian counterparts of 1917. This calls for a different response, on our part. It is up to us to provide them with the respect they deserve. In this way, the World Socialist Republic, which was predicted by Lenin, may soon become a reality.
As concerns the name of the Party, it is important to bear in mind that no name is completely accurate, and further, over time, the name of the Party has changed, as the political situation has changed. The initial name of the Party, created largely by Lenin, in 1898, was the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party. At that time, this name was correct, as Marxists fight for democracy as well as socialism.
Yet the Party became deeply divided, as one faction was of the opinion that, ‘’Social Democracy must change from a party of the social revolution into a democratic party of social reform’’, as Lenin stated in his great work, What Is To Be Done?
Of course, Lenin strongly opposed this revisionist faction. Yet all attempts to reconcile the two factions came to naught. For that reason, the Party split, in 1903, into a majority, or Bolshevik, led by Lenin, and a minority, or Menshevik. Hence the name the Bolshevik Party.
For several years, the name ‘’Bolshevik Party’’ served its purpose, that of distinguishing themselves from the revisionists of the Menshevik Party.
Yet shortly after the successful Russian October Revolution, in March of 1918, Lenin decided to once again change the name of the Party, of course with the approval of the Central Committee. That new name was the ‘’Russian Communist Party, (Bolsheviks).
As Lenin explained, ‘’Our Party must make the most decisive, sharp, clear and and unambiguous statement that is possible, to the effect that it has broken off connections with that old official socialism, for which purpose a change in the name of the Party will be the most effective means.’’
Now it is once again time to draw a clear distinction between ourselves, those who are true Scientific Socialists, Communists, from the numerous social chauvinists, utopian socialists, and anarchists, most of whom claim to be Marxists. Yet the Dictatorship of the Proletariat is the ‘’touchstone of a true Communist’’, according to Lenin. All revisionist socialists, social chauvinists one and all, as well as all utopian socialists, are united in their opposition to the Dictatorship of the Proletariat.
As well, Engels considered the Dictatorship of the Proletariat to be so important, he used that capitalization in the introduction he wrote, in 1891, to the work by Marx, titled, ‘’The Civil War In France’’.
As well, the term ‘’Communist’’ is based upon previous revolutionary experience. It was the workers of Paris, who revolted in 1871, established the first proletarian state, and referred to this as the ‘’Paris Commune’’. They referred to themselves as ‘’Communards’’. It was in their honour that Lenin chose the name ‘’Communist’’.
True, Lenin placed the name ‘’Bolsheviks’’ in brackets, after the title ‘’Russian Communist Party’’. Yet the reason for this was that the word Bolshevik, majority, was of little significance. It could just as easily have been Menshevik, minority. Such cannot be said of the term ‘’Dictatorship of the Proletariat’’, or DP, which is of the utmost importance, and must not be placed in brackets.
Just as all political parties need a political platform, so too the I.C.P.,D.P. is no exception. For that reason, may I suggest that the numerous articles I have written, over the last few years, become that political platform. All of those articles are based upon the Scientific Socialist, Revolutionary theories of Marx and Lenin.
I suspect that the act of creating such a Party, is beyond the ability of even the most advanced workers. Yet I am sure that it is well within the ability of middle class intellectuals. Fortunately, the current revolutionary movement has provided us with an abundance of such people. As Marx and Engels stated, in the Communist Manifesto:
‘’Finally, in times when the class struggle nears the decisive hour, the process of dissolution going on within the ruling class, in fact within the whole range of old society, assumes such a violent, glaring character, that a small section of the ruling class cuts itself adrift, and joins the revolutionary class, the class that holds the future in its hands. Just as, therefore, at an earlier period, a section of the nobility went over to the bourgeoisie, so now a portion of the bourgeoisie goes over to the proletariat, and in particular, a portion of the bourgeois ideologists, who have raised themselves to the level of comprehending theoretically the historical movement as a whole.’’
It is the -former- bourgeois ideologists, those who have been able to ‘’raise themselves to the level of comprehending theoretically the historical movement as a whole’’, who are capable of creating a true International Communist Party, Dictatorship of the Proletariat. I leave this in their competent hands.
Of course, I am quite anxious to help out in any way possible. Feel free to reach out by phone or email. But make every effort to be discrete. Rest assured, the ‘’powers that be’’ take a very dim view of all matters they even suspect to be Communist. And the creation of such a Party is the very definition of Communist! Courage! Now is the time to be resolute! The ‘’decisive hour’’ is at hand! Now is not the time to waver! Now is the time to ‘’join the revolutionary class’’! The ‘’class that holds the future in its hands’’! You will not be disappointed! Under the Dictatorship of the Proletariat, your skills and training will be in demand. In turn, you will be most handsomely rewarded.
