Principles: Revolution as a Process

Revolutionaries do not cause revolution anymore than a midwife causes a woman to become pregnant with child in her womb.  Internally the conception, embryonic development, and labor pangs which characterize a baby's birth and a society's transition happen long before people assist in child/society birth.  The word revolution is used loosely by most.  Reform is not revolution, tokenism is not full access, giving crumbs to Black colleges and giving hundreds of billions of dollars to Harvard is not equality, quantitative change is not qualitative change, finishing first grade is not finishing high school, finishing a college degree is not finishing a ph.d.  There is a difference between an ocean and a lake, a planet and a sun, a scientist and a preacher/imam, a talker and a doer, a destroyer and a builder, a professor and a student, a winner an a loser---those who build civilizations and one who daydreams about fairy-tale saviors building sand castle in the sky.  There is a qualitative difference in all of these.  Whites win because they do what it takes to win;  Africans lose because they have not fit themselves to win---they do not do the things necessary for victory.  The first step is to soberly understand what must be done and do it.

The White and Black left/radicals/militants often fantasize about an American revolutionary history that never was.  They make it appear that there has been class unity across racial lines.  When?  The predatory/parasitic white race, greco-roman/christian culture, slave/capitalist class, male gender has been in charge since the first  boatloads of invading/genocidal whites docked ship and began to steal land, exterminate native populations, and kidnap/capture/work to death millions of innocent Black people.  They still are in charge as they brag about their slavemaker's democracy.  Who is in charge of almost all Black mass movements/leaders/organizations---who funds them, gives them their marching ideas, sets the line, tells them what they can say and what they cannot say? Who is in charge of Black communists/anarchists/radicals? White communists, anarchists, and radicals.  Who are in charge of the Black socialists? White socialists/liberals.   Who is in charge of the Black nationalists? White/Arab/Black petty capitalists, kings, and chiefs.  Who is in charge of the Black liberals? White liberals.  Who is in charge of the Black conservatives? White conservatives/nazis. Who is in charge of Blacks running around under the banner of Christianity, Islam, and Judaism? Whites, arabs, and semite jews whose races made up/propagated/printed the books, and set up the religions they continue to administer globally using chicken-little Blacks as middlemen/women pushers.  

The first criteria of a free thinker is free thought---not being led around by the white/arab great great-grand children of the murderous enslavers who mass enslaved, brutalized, butchered and intimately destroyed hundreds of millions of your race in a genocidal siege unmatched in this solar system.  Laziness of mind, fear to stand on one's own feet, and being dependent on populations which have intimately harmed us in the past has never helped anyone.  We should call things what they are.  What American democracy, when slavery was the practice?  What American revolution?  Yet another lie agreed upon.  What white support for Black movements?  When these sorry white liberals give as much money to fund a Black university as they give to fund Harvard (a white university) then you can say they are equal in their support.  But when Harvard University has a larger endowment than all the Black universities in the world combined, it is clear that the whites only donate crumbs/left-overs to Blacks out of guilt and pity. 

Stop wasting time with them.  Until Black revolutionaries finance/fund, plan, organize, mobilize and lead their own independent mass movements, Africans will not be able to independently stand on their own and rebuild their civilizations.  

There has never been a societal revolution in the United States.  What is called the American Revolutionary War of 1776 was merely an imperialist white national liberation movement (while the so called revolutionaries continued to exterminate the native peoples, steal their land, and enslave millions of Black people to work it).  What was called the Revolutionary Civil War 1861 was merely an agricultural capitalist/slave economy fighting with a manufacturing capitalist industrial economy for political hegemony/power over the national capitalist economy/land.  What was called the Civil Rights Revolution was a simple reform movement moving whites up the labor graduation latter to semi-automated/automated production and the benefits that went with that and Black graduation from manual agriculture to the lowest level of mechanical production that the whites were being promoted from.  For profit sake, Blacks were integrated into the work force, then the social institutions necessary for them to spend the money/wages back with the whites---this was desegregation which actually destroyed most independent Black businesses. 

For all the ink wasted making things appear to be something other than they are whites are still the only ruling race, capitalists are still the only ruling class, greco-roman/christian is the only ruling culture, men are the only ruling gender, Blacks are on the bottom of every significant quality of life indicator in the United States, and the ultra white nationalist Nazis are preparing to wipe out any non-white population still in the United States when its economic system enters into collapse stages.  There has been no revolution. 

In past European slave, and feudal societies, class war between whites ended in the seizure of political power by a class of whites (feudalists, capitalists, socialists), bringing it into correspondence with the new form of private property, the means of production (technology), the economy, the superstructure, and the society's ideology.  In short, what has been called revolution by most Black and white radicals is actually reform; no state power has changed hands from the white, capitalist, greco-roman/christian, male ruling class.   Without a change in state power, there is no indication that a new class has taken power.  A slave maker's constitution is still a slavemaker's constitution.  Black people kept out of the scientific/engineering/technology fields are still the most dependent populations in the world.  At a certain stage of development, the material productive forces of society come into conflict with the existing relations of production, and then begins an era of social revolution. The changes in the economic foundation lead sooner or later to the transformation of the whole immense superstructure.  What does this mean?  Today, the way a society produces what it needs comes into conflict with the way it distributes what workers once produced but is now produced with robots.   The Scientific and Technological Revolution, today will force a societal revolution. 

The society's workers can no longer earn a living working and therefore are forced to attempt to overthrown the class that is starving them to death.  As the technology transforms the economy which sends the social system into collapse which leads to political crisis polarization then leads to lines being drawn in the sand.  Development is struggle; struggle from opposites in unity that polarize to opposites in antagonism that fight it out in a life and death struggle for survival.  Polarization is a division of the population into opposing factions, a sorting and sifting of where people really stand.

Factions divide along race, class, sex, generation, cultural, and psychological lines during economic crisis. The economy collapses, political parties take sides, social conditions worsen, factions turn against one another, a process of destruction of the old order takes place, a new order embryonically emerges after a period of intense destruction and regression.  Without destruction there is no polarization, no polarization no struggle, no struggle no transformation, nothing being reborn nothing dying, nothing old and dying nothing new and being born.   Much of this process is obvious if one is paying attention:

1.  Robotized assembly produces most of what is worn, driven, eaten, lived in, viewed and heard. Its first victims were the unskilled and semi-skilled workers. For Blacks were concentrated there.   The consequent creation of the ghetto the Black, permanently destitute, rotting inner core was creature of the race, class, and culture policy of the white government and rulers.

2.  Increasing billionaires and absolute poverty, increase in production accompanied by an increase of unemployment and joblessness.  Each qualitatively new means of production creates a new class. Previously, each new class has been the owners or operators of the new equipment. This new class, created by robotics, is not simply driven out of industry; it is driven out of capitalist society into homelessness, hunger, utter destitution, and then prison.  

3.  The result is evident in millions of homeless, the tens of millions of jobless, the miles of burned out neighborhoods, the slaughter of our youth, drug dealing, prison proliferation, looting of the public treasury, the decline of education, massive school closures, massive layoffs of teachers, privatization by whites of public jobs blacks once had and the elimination of social services such as welfare, AFDC, food stamps, bridge cards, WIC, Pell grant forcing Blacks and other to the streets without jobs, education, health care, housing, or social assistance.

4.  In proportion to the use of robotics, the new system becomes more productive and more unable to distribute that production. Wageless production cannot be distributed with money. Production without wages inevitably results in distribution without money. This economic demand sweeps aside any political system that cannot conform to it.

5. There were three moments in African history in the Western Hemisphere which evolved the social underpinnings for Blacks to free themselves from white domination. The 1770's to 1790's, the Mid-1800's and early 1900's. At each time during the Revolutionary War, Civil War, and World War I and II the African mass was not prepared by an independent Black leadership, and whites therefore led, won, and benefited. Industrialization put an end to slavery and serfdom throughout the world. Poorly prepared Africans and their leaders merely tailed the process of mechanical labor replacing manual labor for a Civil War and the end of slavery, then semi-automated replacing mechanized machine production in the 1940's for the Civil Rights Movement.

6. The mass movement of Africans around the means of production---whether it was inclusive or exclusive, repulsing or attracting, expanding or contracting---ended up with black on bottom and white on top.

Once sides are taken, there is a rupture, a break, a sorting, as a freeing, making transformation possible. This process takes years to foment.  It does not happen overnight.  When it does come to head, the pace of the process picks up so much that 30 days and a year may have gone by with no eruption then comes the day that makes for 30 years. Political polarization expresses economic polarization which causes social crisis. That crisis takes the form of racial, cultural, class, and gender antagonisms festering into open rebellion. 

There is a war of words in print, internet, audio, video, verbal/written form, etc.  This is the war without arms.  Then there is the organized war with arms in which the best prepared, most determined, best armed, most strategically positioned, and those having the most positive factors on their side ultimately win.  The serious among us study, train, organize, mobilize, ride the crest, guide and direct, bid time, educate themselves and those close to them and participate in the reform struggle in class, race, sex, generation, cultures, psychology in such a way as to prepare for the inevitable revolutionary battle for change.  All else is pipe dream and time wasting which has never helped in population in the world be successful accept at being dumb driven cattle.

Changes in technology fundamentally changed the economy which changed relations between classes, sexes, races, generations, culture, and psychology. Computer Automated machine production on farms, in finances, firms, fashions, and phones made it possible to move a factory into a low wage area anywhere in the world and yet have as complete control as if it were next door. Computerized robots replace human labor rather than enhance it, fueling globalization, more labor and less demand drove down the living standards of all workers.

Economic polarization of wealth and poverty increased, the spontaneous motion toward political independence. increases. Democratic and Republican parties are two sides of the same coin, taking each other's place and protecting one another. But faithfully serving the capitalist who created them in the first place. As people become aware of their economic and social position, their thinking reflects their actual conditions. They cannot become aware of their condition until they stop thinking like the people who rule them. They have to be what they are and think of themselves as they really are.

After race, culture, and gender polarizations/antagonisms, they then organize as classes to seize state power and reorganize the society in their own interest and image.  The passing of state power from one class to another is the first, the principal, the basic sign of a revolution. 

Types of Past Government Transitions

At the different stages in the transition from one formation to another there have existed historically transitional types of states.
