Perform is an old story in Amerika. There have been depressions and socio-economic political cries throughout the period that marked the formation o the present upper class ruining circle and their controlling elites. But the parties of the left were too committed to reformism to exploit their revolutionary potential.

One of the most definite characteristics of facism is its international quality.

We will not succeed until we fully accept the fact that the enemy is aware, determined, disguised, totalitarian, and mercilessly counterrevolutionary. To fight effectively, we must be aware of the fact that the enemy has consolidated through reformist machination the greatest community of self interest that has ever existed.

It is not defeatist to aw knowledge that we have lost a battle. How else can we ‘regroup’ and evening think of carrying on the fight. At the center of revolution is realism.

The significance of the 'new facist arrangement' lies in the fact that this business-as-usual is accompanies by concessions to the degenerate segment of the working class, with the aim of creating a buffer zone between the ruling class and the still potentially revolutionary segments of the lower class.

Thinking about how the ruling class gives us concessions/reforms to stymie the oppressed class.

The major obstacle to a united left in this country is white racism. There are three categories of white racists: the overt, self satisfied racist...the self-interdicting racist...and the unconscious racist

...We must renounce the idea that all participants must be of one mind, and should work at the problem from a single party line or with a single method. Each partisan, outside the vanguard elements, should work at radicalizing in the area of their natural environment, the places where they pursue their normal lives when not attending the rallies and demonstration.

...Revolution is aggressive. The manipulators of the system cannot or will not meet our legitimate demands. Eventually this will move us all into a violent encounter with the system. These are the terminal years of capitalism, and as we move into more and more basic challenges to its rule, history clearly forewarns us that when the prestige of power fails a violent episode precedes its transformation.

Throughout its history, the US has used its prisons to suppress any organized efforts to challenge its legitimacy

Prisons were not institutionalized on such a massive scale by the people. Most people realize that crime is simply the result of a grossly disproportionate distribution of wealth and privilege, a reflection of the present state of property relations. There are no wealthy men on death row, and so few in the general prison population that we can discount them altogether.
