Working Class & German Ideology.

'Allo, comrades! It's a strengthened Björn that writes. I've realized after some thinking that the coming four years will be tough, but they will be rewarding if all the people who have been politicised and honestly scared by the Swedish burgeoise victory. They should be, in all honesty. Though they take it slow, their intention is to attack the welfare system and the unions that protect it, like every right wing government. If what the Social Democrats have done has been bad, what the right wing intends to do will be even more so. Increased social divisions, high unemployment, increased racism... well, take your pick. Right wing politics can never solve these problem on it's own. Indeed, the upper classes gain from racism that divides the working class.

I'm actually really happy that so many have shown an interest in organizing themselves, God knows that we need it. Membership and activism is the basis of the left: remember, we're going to fight, and fight hard. Please, if you are worried about the world you are in, organize yourself. It's not terribly hard, nor terribly expensive. "En kan inte göra allt, men alla kan göra något".

Now, then, let's consider a quick clarification on the working classes if you feel that class politics isn't for you: the working class is defined as the people who work for someone, not their income. It does mean that parts of the burgeoise become workers - they form an upper crust of the working class due to their intimate connections with the owners, and often own a great deal of property themselves. But they, too, would in most cases gain from a social revolution of the means of production.

Everyone!

I recommend you to join parties, go to demonstrations, go to meetings. Otherwise you will suffer from it, I promise. You can create a better world. The left is broad and diverse, there is always someone who you can find will be good for you. And remember, you can always walk around and be mad at things yourself but you will never be able to change them on your own. Go to a meeting, join a party!
