The left-wing organization burns out, arrogant of whose business to represent and how to communicate it to them. The elective part of society is ideologically cared for by the broad right, and it has been since simple school. You can read about it. in the fresh text by Tomasz Żukowski.
In theory, to halt effects of epigenetic traumaIt takes 3 generations. 3 generations must so be taken before Poles entering the election age without fear of the economical collapse of the 1980s Polish People's Republic and aggressive propaganda of the Catholic-free marketplace transition time. Until this change happens, the primary left has no 1 to chase.
Good, due to the fact that this way of action is far from the essence of left-wing. It's a mode of action imposed by conservative forces forming neoliberal postmodernity. So the clue or alternatively the signpost stands like an ox at the very beginning of the socialist movement. The Left, if it wants to prosecute its ideas and declarations, is not looking for voters, it is creating them and emancipating them as a social class. It is simply a monstrous, epic enterprise that happens erstwhile all fewer decades, but it happens.
There's no working class anymore.
The election of the left is proletariat. I can't believe you gotta remind me. Not necessarily workers, workers, women or elgiebets. There have been times erstwhile slaves or peasants were serfed. Yes, it could be any of these groups, it could be programmers, if we deprive them of their voting rights, their housing and their computers. The proletariat is an inalienable pillar of economics, but has no influence on shaping this economics of rights.
It happens that the last known and remembered in Poland were workers. But there are also proletariats, specified as black American residents or indigenous South American people.
The designation of workers as a proletariat is derived from the social situation in which they were found in European countries in the second half of the 19th century. In short, all day long, they had been doing devastatingly hard work for which they received hungry salaries or did not receive them at all. They processed natural materials and produced goods on which mill owners made fortunes, and wealthy townspeople wanted them, bought them, and enjoyed possession. full working families worked, including children. The workers lived in filthy neighborhoods that were de facto ghettos.
There were no institutions in which they could request better working conditions, and if they tried to protest, they were beaten or killed by police and military. They had no right to vote or only theoretically, due to the fact that the forces of a wealthy part of society effectively blocked this law. They were expected to be free people who could choose a place to work and live, but the social context prevented it. They differed from slaves due to the fact that they could not be traded, but frequently fell into a kind of captivity erstwhile they were active in various types of loans, paid for decades.
So who's the proletariat today? Workers as a social class are no longer present and this is the consequence of the civilizational success of socialist thought and practice. The scale of this success is unspeakable and even unconscious by today's societies. On Polish ground he tells about it book A Dreamy Revolution Andrzej Leder. On a global scale, socialism has been compromised by the inept, murderous or corrupt governments they have exercised, citing it, various dictators. In addition, the capitalist consequence active vast and sophisticated means to bury the memory of the ubiquitous, despite dramatic disasters, achievements. It's the most powerful description. Howard Zinn in the book United States People's History.
Proletarians at Borders
Let us repeat: there is no working class anymore, and this is simply a success. Of course, this was not done in a doctrinal way. Even if we do not know how to cheat ourselves, the free marketplace economy model dominates the planet and its mechanisms dictate the conditions under which the workers' children dissolved in the characteristics of the mediate class and the erstwhile bourgeoisie.
More. any of them became alleged entrepreneurs. Embedded by the systemic transformation capitalism with a social class with a strong identity and resources to implement it. The awareness of Polish entrepreneurs was pumped with powerful money, global mechanisms for the transfer of cognition and self-employment culture were involved, They were blessed with the authority of Karol Wojtyla. It is inactive not possible to mock this fact ritually and ignore the scale. Although the façade, disheartening and daunting is the culture of entrepreneurs, it is already a vital part of this society and will make in its own way, whether leftist likes it or not.
How about employees? The labour Party? It was already happening. There's no specified thing as a cultural worker identity and it's a waste of time to nuance it. The promotion of unionism has nothing to do with syndicatedism, or emancipation, to change the structure of power.
Who is in a situation that best corresponds to the situation of workers from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries? With being a subclass without the ability to influence the destiny of the country in which he lives and which he is an indispensable part? Whose culture co-creates many taxes to which citizens are born, generates immense money flows all day without exception and provides an untapped variety of services? Immigrants.
Those documented by different visas and permits and another residence cards. Those in the exile procedure and those who fell out of it. They are now trying to vanish somewhere in the crowd, hoping they will not encounter border guards until a legislative miracle occurs.
Immigrants are very motivated. They are guided by aspirations, dreams and the basic request for safety and acceptance for themselves and their families. Poland has utilized this in a clever and cruel way for years. In 2023, nearly 2 million work permits were issued for foreigners. A temporary residence and work licence can be obtained even six months before examining an application for global protection or asylum.
Long before a decision is made about the destiny of a individual who, in 1 way or another, has been in our country, he is deceived to feel that everything is on the right track. They rapidly find legal work, rent apartments, learn fast topography of cities and communication mechanisms. They get into relationships, plan, rest. Their earnings and expenditure are taxed and are fueled by the budget and the economy of Poland and the European Union.
After a fewer months, they get a negative decision to submit a request and a dream to the Office for Foreigners, and all the individual capital developed is lost. They were utilized by citizens of the Polish state, who wanted to become more than anything. They may effort to find a occupation black and live in constant fear of stopping and deporting or study to a border defender unit, be placed in a facility and wait for deportation.
For a year, I assisted a boy who crossed the border from Belarus. Even after he was forced to leave, I was phoned by temporary agency employees who were registered with me, asking if I had "access" to more "people like him". The request for legal workers is enormous, but as a consequence of the restrictive immigration policy of our country – impossible to meet.
If not a bloody revolution, then what?
Because of specified apparent injustice and the rigor in the offices, those who manage to prolong visas and permits are incapable to escape the context of being non-citizens. They are not free, even though they enjoy the state's co-created prosperity. Their everyday life is legal absurd. It causes them, their loved ones and their friends to suffer. They can be treated legally like others. So they live like others, pursuing the right-wing fantasy of fear.
The right female needs so much to feed her voters with fear of strangers that she creates them, pushing immigrants into a pre-criminal cultural and administrative "subordination". This is happening in most European countries, and this only leads to a social disaster and bloody conflict, preceded by years of unrest, riots and regular force in suburbs.
Separated from family, incapable to visit wives, husbands, grandmothers, grandparents, children, uncles and cousins. Inability to leave or having to leave for renewal. advanced costs of language learning, racism of pensioners, difficulties in accessing bank services, deficiency of community, deficiency of temples, deficiency of ability to realise cultural capital beyond the glass ceiling of the function of an immigrant as a lowest level service worker. These pains of people settling in Poland will not only not vanish over time, but will be transferred as a trauma to their children and grandchildren, who will theoretically be full citizens. In them they will only produce anger.
Those who have a voice can give it to those who have no voice.
Not to build socialism, inclusiveness and democracy with their hands. These are means, not targets.
From the position of the activist, the social class is built to channel an insufferable sense of social injustice and an insufferable anxiety caused by compassion for the humiliated.
It's a long-term job, even decades. That's what past teaches us. Its activists and heroic activists undertake. On the way, we must face ridicule, harassment and then legislative and direct force of nationalists and capitalists. There is nothing to win – but the satisfaction of being on the right side.
Fortunately, past besides teaches us how to do this: 1 should make a call, translate it into respective languages, print leaflets, posters and go with them to the marketplaces, bazaars, trade complexes, underground transitions, reception centers, station and relief foundations. We should invitation leaders and community leaders to the summit. They will be able to operate through communicators and social networking sites to form a movement until it is grown adequate to be able to request the full rights of the Polish and European citizens.
In the past, firmness has been achieved in revolutionary violence. However, this force is to be blamed, not for the organizers of the movement, but for those who pay the batters, police and troops against it. Those who come to power, sowing fear and inciting the oppressed.
Those and those who organize the movement, more than anyone, want to prevent bloody revolutions. possibly this time it'll work. possibly in specified a function you will find any disappointed in the illusion of pulling out your electorate environment. Hopefully pro-democratic and left-wing.
