The main idea of the fifth international

Oppose imperialism

Advocates of the "Fifth International" believe that imperialism is the common enemy of the whole world, and it is their companies, profits, patents, mass media, laws, governments, police and troops that hinder mankind from building a better new world. Militarily, imperialism always resists and destroys all kinds of just forces by relying on its powerful military weapons. Therefore, while firmly supporting all forces against military imperialism, they are opposed to putting any money into imperialist aggression and military occupation, and to anyone serving their aggression and military occupation. They demand that the United States, Britain and their allies immediately stop bombing and enslaving the Iraqi people and support the Palestinian people in their struggle against national oppression and Israeli racism. Economically, the Fifth Internationalist advocates a solemn declaration of war against the imperialist financial systems that are popular all over the world, such as the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and the World Trade Organization, and opposes the harsh terms, privatization and various "free" trade treaties of these systems. They believe that the only consequence of the capitalist economic system is to further expand the interests of multinational corporations, thus strengthening their submission to multinational corporations.

Oppose Stalinism and advocate anti-dictatorship and anti-autocracy.

Oppose reformism and advocate class struggle and violent revolution.

Advocates of the "Fifth International" resolutely oppose the theories, programs and policies of the Labor Party, the Socialist Party and the Social Democratic Party, and regard them as reformism or opportunism. They believe that capitalism cannot be changed through peaceful parliamentary roads or election methods. To overthrow capitalism, we can only rely on the violent revolution and armed struggle of the masses. They tried their best to expose "reformist attempts under various masks." In their view, in the struggle to establish a new Communist International, not only reformists but also wavering centrists should be criticized. If we share power with the reformist capitalist government and take refuge in political parties that confuse the difference between reform and revolution, we can only blur the hearing and hearing of the working class.

Advocates of the "Fifth International" believe that there is only one way for human beings to be free: class struggle, resistance to various forms of exploitation, including exploitation by workers, peasants and urban poor, as well as racism, ethnic oppression, women's oppression, youth oppression and homosexual oppression. The current task they set is to do everything possible to support the struggle of these people and unite the broad masses of young workers, new industrial workers, unorganized craftsmen, workers and all kinds of people with fighting spirit.

Advocate the establishment of a truly democratic social system

Advocates of the "Fifth International" believe that without democracy, it is impossible to attract the working class of all countries in the world, nor can it achieve true unity, form an international strategy and resist capitalist rule. Therefore, they advocate that all power must be in the hands of a democratic parliament composed of representatives of the working class, who should be directly elected by the people's congress and can be replaced, and the parliament must have the support and guarantee of the armed working class and its allies. They oppose bureaucratic control of trade unions and privileged officials in trade unions. Never allow those officials whose remuneration is much higher than that of labor to dominate their own organizations. Their mass organizations will have a democratic advantage of 100%. All officials are elected and can be removed, recalled or replaced at any time. The income of these officials is equivalent to the average salary of the members of the organization they claim to represent.

They also advocate that all production and distribution should be organized in a democratic form on the basis of sustainable development, and that private ownership should be completely abandoned and no longer dominated by "blind and cruel" market laws. At the same time, it calls for social justice and advocates solving the poverty problem in underdeveloped areas by rationally allocating resources such as raw materials, transportation, communications, technology and markets in a planned way. They stressed the need to highlight the rights of young people, believed that people over the age of 65,438+06 should have the right to vote, and demanded an end to child labor and the implementation of all free and universal education. They believe that young people should dominate their own lives, not serve big enterprises, and should resolutely crack down on conscription and militarism, so as not to let the younger generation become executioners or cannon fodder in the "master" war.

Oppose racism and gender discrimination

Advocates of the "Fifth International" believe that racism not only divides and antagonizes mankind, but also causes deep-rooted global inequality. In order to safeguard the equal rights of all ethnic groups and races, they demanded an end to racial discrimination, exposed all kinds of lies spread by racists in the mass media and incited hostility towards blacks, Asians, Latin Americans, Romans, Jews, Albanians and Turks. They call for the right of asylum and believe that all people can move and migrate freely. In their view, capitalists chase the biggest profits in the world with their money, which has caused great disasters, not to mention all kinds of disasters caused by the money being taken away without authorization, while the victims and victims of those capitals have nowhere to escape because they have no right to move freely. In order to break national boundaries, protect refugees, and help political asylum seekers obtain real asylum rights, for example, when refugees or ethnic minorities are attacked, the advocates of the "Fifth International" advocate coming forward and fighting with their own bodies to completely repel "fascism" or "reactionaries".

On women's issues

They advocate liberating women from explicit or implicit institutional inequality and gender discrimination. From the heavy burden of housework, sexual exploitation, low wages, domestic violence and lack of reproductive autonomy. Then establish a harmonious society that eliminates gender oppression.

On environmental issues

Advocates of "Fifth International" also advocate protecting the ecological environment, resisting man-made bad climate change and global warming, resisting companies and enterprises that refuse to take any measures to solve the problem of greenhouse gas emissions, resisting various policies that put the profits of the huge oil, electronics and automobile industries above the survival interests of species, and so on.
