There Can Be No Compromise.


 
         As the old year starts to fade and the new year beckons, it is a time for anarchists to reflect on the struggles of the past, our successes and how to improve on them, our failures and how to reverse them. It is also time to analyse the weakness and the strengths of our adversary, the economic system under which we live. Weakness there are plenty, its only strength is our apathy. We are all aware that the state is ramping up repression, as more and more people become not just disenchanted with the government, but disgusted by its callous support for the corporate world at the expense of the people. Deteriorating conditions among our people is encouraging more and more individuals to get involved in this battle for justice and equality. Our vision of justice and equality must see through all borders, we can never recognise those arbitrary lines drawn on the planet's surface by power mongers. Also we must not forget those comrades who have paid dearly in this struggle for a better world, some paid by being imprisoned, others paid with their life.
      These are very dangerous times, capitalist power blocks are vying to increase their dominance in certain areas, and are defending their bases in others, with the extremely high risk of existing wars escalating in to a globe catastrophe. A reshuffling of the power mongers territory is usually done by shedding the blood of millions of our people. 
      So let’s come together in the knowledge that the capitalist system is in turmoil, with chaos the main ingredient, and the various states are struggling as the illusion of their legitimacy evaporates like fog in the sun. It is an ideal time to increase our actions, but only after, with a critical eye, we reflect on where we are, and where we want to go, and how to get our communities more involved.
       Dangerous times, but times loaded with opportunities, their chaos and turmoil is our garden of opportunity, we have nothing to lose, and a world to gain, but that takes critical analysis, organisation, solidarity, community involvement and determination. It is their world, or it is our world, there can be no compromise.

    Which Side Are You On - Dropkick Murphys

    Our father was a union man some day I'll be one too.
    The bosses fired daddy what's our family gonna do?
    Come all you good workers good news to you
    I'll tell of how the good old union has come in here to dwell.
    Which side are you on?
    Which side are you on?
    My daddy was miner and I'm a miner's son
    And I'll stick with the union 'til every battles done.
    They say in Harlan County there are no neutrals there
    You'll either be a union man or a thug for J.H. Blair
    Oh workers can you stand it?
    Oh tell me how you can will you be a lousy scab or will you be a man?
    Don't scab for the bosses don't listen to their lies
    Us poor folks haven't got a chance unless we organize.
