8) WS(W)F: Who's fighting Who?
The imperialist world is entangled in an unprecedented economic crisis, aptly depicted by themselves as 'synchronized sinking '. Politically, the much-trumpeted bourgeois values of freedom and democracy are steadily getting invalidated leading to the Fascisisation of State and Society. The gulf of inequality between Classes and Nations is fast widening. Unable to project any credible political or ideological alternative, the imperialists are scared at the possibility of communism gaining influence as the alternative. This apprehension of the enemy is true despite the fact that the International Communist Movement is splintered and weak. Hence, the time-tested tactics of promoting social democrats, anarchists, Trotskyites and pseudo-communists is on the play now. The vanguard role of PT in the WSF and the active role of CPI, CPI (M), CPI M-L (Liberation) in India are part of this conspiracy; a conspiracy to gain credibility by portraying a bourgeois formation as a red coalition. Or 'left pluralism' in the now infamous NGO- discourse!
A classic case of waving red flag against the red flag!
