Marxism, imperialism and the justification of inequality
The events of December 2013 – February 2014 in Ukraine are not just another coup in yet another state. It is the return of true fascism. It is a precedent, the first time in over 70 years when a fascist regime receives support of the so-called “world community”. Other European countries face the threat of fascistization as well. At the same time, Ukraine accuses Russia of being a fascist state and Western media compare Putin to Hitler.
So what is fascism? There can be no “basic” and “layman’s answer” to this. Had there been one, labeling each other as ‘fascist’ just wouldn’t have existed and we would recognize the enemy of mankind from afar. Humanity throughout its history was moving towards fundamental equality of humankind, and away from fundamental inequality and the rule of the chosen few. In the 19th century the chosen few, feeling threatened like never before, have decided to put an end to this by justifying and cementing fundamental inequality of humankind once and for all. This is what we will talk about in this series of articles.
