3 Points on Brexit

June 24, 2016 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us

 

1. Britain’s decision to leave the European Union represents a major shock, a major crisis, to the entire imperialist world order. This could lead to further tears in the whole economic and political fabric and could result in still greater jolts. No one can predict the consequences.
    
2. This is taking place at a time when there is increasingly sharp contention among the rulers of every major imperialist power over how to go forward in the face of huge shifts and changes which are threatening to pull apart their world order. All this is a result of the blind workings of an economic system built on worldwide plunder and oppression and the fallout from the political and military actions the imperialists have taken to preserve that system—including the wars that they have undertaken in Afghanistan and the Middle East in the past 25 years.
    
3. At this time, there is no organized force in most of the world with the needed strength to make something good for the masses out of this. Every other answer being offered is either an illusion or would lead only to worse horrors… or both. The most urgent thing is that people be organized around the ONE way out that is actually the way FORWARD. And that is the new synthesis of communism, and the leadership of Bob Avakian.
