(en) UK, ACG: The Beautiful Idea: Why we need anarchist communism now (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Online Public Meeting Convened by Anarchist Communist Group - Monday,
March 18th 7-9pm ---- We are going through an unprecedented time of
human history, in which even the future of the planet is at stake. This
was not inevitable. It is the result of the systems that have been
brutally imposed by a ruling elite, including colonial expansion and
imperialism, which gave rise to global capitalism. This system as spread
to ever corner of the world, bringing with it exploitation, oppression,
wars and environmental disaster. ---- We believe that only anarchist
communism can save the day. The ruling class is desperate to make us
think that the serious issues we are facing can be resolved within
capitalism, with continual growth and profits for a few. Too many in the
trade unions, reformist parties and environmental believe the same.
Demands for a 'Just Transition' or a 'green economy' are still all
within the logic of capitalism.
Other options are being put forward by Communists of the Leninist
tradition. Though they call for revolution, theirs would be a top-down
one, sacrificing our freedom in the process. Anarchism, without the
communism, is also an inadequate solution. Focusing on individual
freedom and being anti-authority does not address the big changes that
need to take place in our economic and social systems.
Instead we propose anarchist communism. As Malatesta said:
"We too aspire to communism as the most perfect achievement of human
solidarity, but it must be anarchist communism, that is, freely desired
and accepted, and the means by which the freedom of everyone is
guaranteed and can expand; for these reasons we maintain that State
communism, which is authoritarian and imposed, is the most hateful
tyranny that has ever afflicted, tormented and handicapped mankind."
