Young American Communist Applauds French Unrest

Meet Jen Waller of the International Action Center (IAC). On October 22, she spoke at the Workers World Forum about the increasing French unrest. But she wasn’t concerned — rather, she was applauding it (literally).
As you’ll hear and see, she’s a big fan of unions, the protests of that country’s workers against austerity measures such as raising the retirement age, and the effects of those protests.
First, some quick background. IAC bills itself as and “anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist organization“ that wants to ”build a progressive movement for social justice and change.” Workers World is an overtly communist group that asks “Can’t we radically restructure the economy and put billions into solving basic human needs?”
Here‘s Waller’s description of the French unrest:
So people are really angry in France that they, um, are being asked to work longer in their lives, um, while banks are getting bailed out and while the rich people are, um, getting tax rebates. And um, it’s being linked to the larger issues of, um, neo-liberal corporate policies in the government, um, that make the workers pay and allow the rich to get richer.
Her later details of the number of protests were met by an applause. Trevor Loudon over at NZPatriot asks, “US Communists cheer on French protesters — a warning of things to come in America?”:
And in case you were confused at all about Workers World’s goal, it held a conference this weekend to let you know:

Believe me, there is no hope for them because their sense of self is tied up in their politics. In short, without “the struggle” they have no identities, no worth, and their lives are bereft of meaning. They are a sad lot, constantly complaining about the injustice and poverty in the world while sipping 5 dollar coffee drinks.

Totalitarianism is what you get when you pursue “social justice” and “equality”; because people are different, you HAVE to have a totalitarian state to make them “equal” in material things. True equality and justice consist of equal treatment under an equally applicable law (i.e., laws that apply to eveyone equally). Yes, communism calls for complete ownership by “the workers”, or “the proletariat”, but never in the history of the world has pursuing that goal at a national level resulted in anything other than totalitarianism.

Report Post »I’m not sure it would do much good to send them to China or Cuba because they would probably be kept from the true conditions of things; they would probably be kept in the nicer parts and kept away from the slums and countryside where poverty is endemic and (no doubt) enforced. What strikes me, as a young person myself, is that no one (on the left, that is) ever seems to understand that if the rich can’t get richer, then how can the poor get richer? They can’t, of course. There is no freedom or equality if every law-abiding member of society is not equally free.
