Resolution of the “Red March”
Moscow, November 7, 2012
In a country where 95 years ago the people accomplished the Great October Revolution, which marked the beginning of construction of the first socialist, truly fair state, freed from centuries of oppression and gave unprecedented rights and freedoms, the current power of capital tends to impose on society a sense of permanence to this inhumane system.
In this system, people have to be forever divided into “masters of life” and submissive “slaves.” A tiny part of the population of Russia will accumulate enormous wealth and sink in the world of luxury. The vast majority will be forced to live in poverty, ignorance, drunkenness and a spiritual wilderness.
The ideological justification for the ruling elite’s plan is religious obscurantism and an endless search for external and internal enemies. There are more and more restrictions, tougher penalties for information dissemination and retrieval, and the simple expression of citizenship.
The political regime in Russia is moving toward a tightening dictatorship! Every day brings new reports of searches, interrogations and repression of civic activists. Dozens of our comrades are already languishing in the dungeons on absurd charges.
All this is happening in a country of great thinkers and scientists. Today, we are back to fight for the ideals of the October Revolution. For the right to work and leisure, the right to education and health care, the right to free choice of profession, freedom of conscience and freedom of speech, equality of sexes, and elimination of discrimination based on nationality. Again, as in the days of serfdom and absolute monarchy, the left raises the sacred banner of struggle of all oppressed for freedom and equality. Once again, we are threatened by police brutality and prison. But we are confident that the darkness will not rule forever.
Russia will be free and socialist!
We say:
- The ideas of the October Revolution did not suffocate!
- Russia without the bourgeoisie!
- Authority of the millions, not the millionaires!
- Down with the police state!
- Freedom to political prisoners!
- There will be a new October!Translation by redguard
