If you are falling for Adams’s crap, you are being played like a video game and used by fascism. And if you are standing back and shaking your head while you do nothing to stop this shit, you’re not neutral—you’re making it worse. You need to get with the revcoms and do something about it.
Eric Adams is a liar. But what is the truth? The truth is that a little over 100,000 desperate people have been driven to seek shelter in a city of nearly 8½ million people. They have come from all over the world, almost always risking their lives.
Why? Because the countries in which they live have been ripped apart by U.S. economic exploitation, by U.S. military invasions and coups, by U.S. political domination, and by environmental destruction mainly directed from “good ole USA.”
EXPLOITATION: WHAT IT IS, HOW TO PUT AN END TO IT by Bob Avakian (produced by The RNL Show)
Oh, so “they” are in your neighborhood? Or you don’t like seeing “them” on the streets?
Listen. People don’t risk their lives on overloaded rafts sailing the Atlantic, or battling poisonous snakes hiking over mountains, or dying in the deserts because they want to sleep on “your” streets and be turned into scapegoats. From Venezuela to Congo, from El Salvador and Guatemala to Afghanistan, from Haiti to Cambodia, America has wreaked havoc on these peoples and these countries.
Don’t believe it? Think we’re exaggerating? Then go to the American Crime series at revcom.us and you’ll get just a taste of the horror of what the U.S. has done to countries and peoples all over the world.
The problem is most definitely NOT “the migrants”—the problem is the SYSTEM, the capitalist-imperialist system. And the “victim” is not “New York” (which is actually a headquarters of that system); the victims are the desperate people driven to New York as a last resort, and the untold others who languish right now in refugee camps and detention centers at borders around the world..
Bob Avakian's Answer to People Who Complain about Immigrants Crossing Borders
WE NEED A WHOLE NEW SYSTEM
We need a NEW SYSTEM, one based on the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America, written by Bob Avakian. This Constitution provides a sweeping vision, a firm foundation and concrete blueprint for bringing into being a society, and ultimately a world, free from all forms of slavery, all exploitation and oppression based on class, race, sex and gender. The new revolutionary power would welcome the initiative and contributions of those who would come here to take part in building up the new revolutionary society.
Right now Adams is going after Biden for doing nothing. He sounds just like the fascists in Texas and Florida who are sending refugees to New York to instigate this kind of shit as part of their program of xenophobia, or hatred of anyone who is not American. Two things this shows: one, none of the rulers have a humane solution to the refugee crisis their system has created. And two, the sharp conflict among the rulers over how to rule this oppressive system actually makes revolution more possible.
But only if YOU get with the revolution—otherwise, things will almost certainly take a leap into even worse horror for the people, especially the oppressed—all the oppressed.
To those of you, especially among the oppressed, who are allowing yourselves to be whipped up by the likes of Adams—or even the fascist thug Curtis Sliwa—what you are doing is shameful. Where is your humanity? Or are you so caught up in groveling to keep whatever little bit this system has allowed you away from other oppressed people that you will do anything to keep it?
To you liberals who remain silent, who do not take on the MOBS that are whipped up to oppose the desperately oppressed people seeking shelter or the mob leaders like Adams and Sliwa—how do you look in the mirror?
To anyone with a shred of humanity—there is a solution: how can you not even check it out??
Bob Avakian—the revolutionary leader, author and architect of a whole new framework for human emancipation, the new communism—has said:
We can no longer afford to allow these imperialists to continue to dominate the world and determine the destiny of humanity. And it is a scientific fact that humanity does not have to live this way—a whole different way to organize society, a whole better world, is possible.
NO HUMAN BEING IS ILLEGAL!
WE DON’T HAVE AN IMMIGRATION PROBLEM, WE HAVE AN IMPERIALISM PROBLEM!
WE NEED AND WE DEMAND: A WHOLE NEW WAY TO LIVE, A FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT SYSTEM!
