“There is another kind of dictatorship, the dictatorship of the proletarian majority, the dictatorship of the masses, which is directed against the bourgeoisie, against the minority. At the head of this dictatorship stand the masses; here there is no room either for a camarilla or for secret decisions, here everything is done openly, in the streets, at meetings—because it is the dictatorship of the street, of the masses, a dictatorship directed against all oppressors. Marxists support this kind of dictatorship “with both hands"—and that is because such a dictatorship is the magnificent beginning of the great socialist revolution.”

“We have always considered it more important to develop our lives as part of the Party and the Revolution. Life, short or long, we believe should be useful to the most sublime of humanity: the struggle for Communism… and we firmly believe in the construction of the People’s Republic of Peru, a Republic of New Democracy, we believe in the Revolution, in the armed struggle; We raise Chairman Mao’s great slogan to the top: Power is born from the rifle.
This grandiose process of the Revolution in Peru is led by the working class, through its Party, it is the one that gives direction and it is the Party of the working class, the Communist Party of Peru, that has to guide us to our final goal.
We reiterate, a Marxist-Leninist-Maoist, Gonzalo Thought Party, the scientific ideology of the proletariat, being Maoism, that is the fundamental and decisive thing for the World Proletarian Revolution and Gonzalo Thought for the Peruvian Revolution, for being the creative application of Maoism to our reality. We reiterate our philosophy of struggle that only with the rifle can the world be transformed.
Many hearts, along with ours, have already undertaken this heroic deed, which will lead humanity to the final goal, which is Communism.”
As Maoists we understand that People's War is necessary not only to take power, but also, most importantly, to prepare the masses for socialism and holding power. Majumdar's argument here is important with this in mind: in order for the broad peasant masses to be mobilized by a future People's Army, they have to be given confidence in class struggle-a sort of tempering. The masses as soldiers are equipped first with confidence in violence and then with the arms snatched from the enemy. This lesson taught by Majumdar in 1970 played out a decade later in Peru as well.
Let us recall a few facts about Majumdar that t0o often go unaccounted for: he recognized that the world proletarian revolution against imperialism had entereda new and higher stage as early as 19 65, and he highlighted that this meant a few
crucial things. The first of these is that you cannot meaningfully attack imperialism without first attacking revisionism (with the same intensity and fury with which you would the open class enemy). The second is that elections must be boycotted in this era. The third is that armed struggle is the central task of all Maoist politics. He held the boycott of elections as a universal principle:
"In the present era when imperialism is heading towards total collapse, revolutionary struggle in every country has taken the form of armed struggle; Soviet revisionism, unable to retain itsmask of socialism, has been forced to adopt imperialist tactics; world revolution has entered a new higher phase; and socialism is marching irrepressibly forward to victory--in such an era, to take to the parliamentary road means stopping this onward march of world revolution. Today, the revolutionary Marxist-Leninists cannot opt for the parliamentary road. This is true notonly for the colonial and semi colonial countries, but for thecapitalist countries as well." ("Boycott Elections!")

Down with Imperialism, down with the Zionist state of Israel! Long live the Revolution!
Before he was assassinated by Israeli bombs, the Palestinian teacher and poet Refaat Alareer addressed his last tweet to Killer Kamala Harris, writing simply, “The Democratic Party and Biden are responsible for the Gaza genocide perpetrated by Israel.”

“In the course of the Chinese revolution Mao had developed Marxism-Leninism in many important fields. But it was in the crucible of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution that our ideology took a leap and the third great milestone, Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, fully emerged. From the higher plane of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism the revolutionary communists could grasp the teachings of the previous great leaders even more profoundly and indeed even Mao Tsetung's earlier contributions took on deeper significance. Today, without Maoism there can be no Marxism-Leninism. Indeed, to negate Maoism is to negate Marxism-Leninism itself.”
Historical video of the day: Clip from Abu Ali Mustafa’s short film “Scenes of the Occupation from Gaza” (1970), which captured the brutality of the IDF and the valor of the Palestinian resistance during the 70s. As far back as then, efforts were made by Israel to expel Palestinians abroad and into Egypt.
“Revisionism has already lost out, it’s only a matter of time. The problem is already defined, the rubbish has begun to be swept away, burned away; as I said, it’s only a matter of time. The process of their demise began years ago. And if we go back further, to the beginnings, the ball game was lost when they became revisionists, when they abandoned their principles–at that point. What remained to be seen was how the class struggle would develop, and how a Party like ours would be capable of carrying out its role, and how the masses would sustain it, support it and carry it forward, how they would come to see that it is their Party, that it defends their interests. And it is the masses themselves who will settle accounts, giving a just punishment to those who for decades have sold out and who continue to sell out the proletariat’s basic interests, and they will also condemn and sanction those traitors who try to do so or begin to do so.”
The Filipino people are burning with rage at the US-Marcos regime over its all-out fascist oppression throughout the country, especially in
March 21, 2024 | Ang Bayan
Desperate to “finish off” the revolutionary armed resistance of the Filipino people, the US-Marcos regime’s armed tentacles is carrying out a rampant terrorist and fascist rampage throughout the country. Marcos and the AFP are set to make one false declaration after another that provinces have become “insurgency-free,” especially in areas that have long been targets of foreign corporations for mining, plantation and energy projects. At the behest of US imperialism, the AFP is also in a hurry to “end” the armed struggle of the Filipino people so that the US military can fully employ the AFP in its war of provocation against China which is likely to intensify in the coming year.
Marcos and the leadership of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) have recently ordered an all-out war. The declared aim of this war is to dismantle all NPA guerrilla fronts by the end of March, destroy all NPA combat units by the end of June, and destroy all regional Party committees before the end of the year. Thousands of military troops, alongside police combat troops and tens of thousands of paramilitaries armed by the AFP, have been dispatched to ravage the countryside.
Hundreds of villages are being garrisoned by Marcos’ fascist minions. Oppressive soldiers are controlling people’s lives and livelihoods, silencing them and trampling on their rights and freedoms. Checkpoints and food blockades, prohibiting people from working in their fields or swidden farms, armed soldiers occupying barangay centers, going house to house and forcing people to “surrender,” harassing young women or even married women, all-night drinking, beatings and altercations, indiscriminate firing of guns—this is how people perceive the rotten soldiers. Amid drought and disasters, fascist soldiers are like pests who bring nothing but disaster to their communities.
Using powerful weapons such as drones and jetfighters, helicopters and howitzers, Marcos’s terrorist soldiers are bombing mountains and fields, indiscriminately firing night or day, destroying the forests and poisoning waters, shattering the peace and causing deep trauma to the people, especially children, pregnant women and the elderly. These result in unnecessary number of lives lost, contrary to all principles and laws of civilized warfare.
The evil aim of Marcos is to instill fear in the hearts of the people and force them prostrate while allowing their land to be grabbed by big foreign capitalists and their partner comprador bourgeoisie and big landlords. But instead of falling on the ground, the people are more and more roused to stand up and fight, and tread the path of armed revolution.
In the guerrilla fronts across the country, the units of the New People’s Army (NPA) continue to enjoy deep and widespread support from the peasant masses. Military officers of the AFP and the reactionary state are furious that despite their intensified all-out war which has lasted for almost seven years, the peasant masses continue to provide political and material support to the Red fighters. Young farmers, as well as young students, workers, as well as professionals continue to join the people’s army.
The people’s desire to carry forward the armed struggle continues to burn. Amid fascist attacks perpetrated by the armed minions of the US-Marcos regime, and oppressive policies that worsen their plight, it is becoming clearer to the minds and consciousness of the peasant masses that they completely have nothing if they do not have the New People’s Army on their side to defend their lives and rights, and to fight with for their land and livelihood.
In recent years, the NPA has suffered losses and setbacks in various parts of the country due to the errors and weaknesses of conservatism and complacency with its previous accomplishments. Instead of boldly treading the path of continuous expansion and invigoration of the armed struggle, the scope and mass base of guerrilla units were reduced, and units became passive and vulnerable to enemy encirclement. Under the guidance of and inspired by the Party, the NPA is determined to rectify errors and move forward on the path of strengthening and galvanizing the people’s war.
In the spirit of the rectification movement, the NPA must more vigorously wage armed struggle in all parts of the country. Utilizing the broad mass movement in guerrilla warfare, they must use all weapons—guns and rocks, spears and punji traps, shotguns and landmines—and carry out large or small tactical offensives that can be won against weak and isolated parts of the enemy. Strike at the enemy’s fascist troops and all its tentacles by way of rendering justice for the people and inspiring their resistance. Only by waging widespread armed resistance can the NPA consolidate, overcome setbacks and strengthen.
Since its establishment, five and a half decades ago, the NPA has served as the true people’s army in promoting the revolutionary aspirations of the Filipino people for national democracy. On its coming anniversary on March 29, let us celebrate its accomplishments for the past 55 years, pay tribute to all the martyrs and heroes, and reaffirm the determination to advance the protracted people’s war, without fear of sacrifices and hardships, to achieve ultimate victory in the future.

Marxist philosophy is the basis of our conception, it is the core of ideology, of course, that is why we cannot neglect it. Lenin drew the great lesson, when he said: “For a time I thought that philosophy was a question of the specialists of the Party in this problem, but the struggle made me understand that philosophy cannot be left in the hands of the specialists because philosophy is the very basis of the Party.” And you cannot fight against revisionism if you don’t grasp Marxist philosophy, and Marxist philosophy cannot be split into dialectical materialism on one hand and materialism applied to the social world. No comrades, this is a big mistake! Although it was Marx who solved the problem of understanding the social world, he did it by applying dialectical materialism; therefore, it is nothing but the dialectical materialist understanding of society, nothing else, however new it may be. It is a radically new and different creation, so what is new and different is not only the application to the social world. Why do I say this: the bourgeoisie in the eighteenth century through Diderot – that French character – developed mechanistic materialism to its highest level and came to intuit the contradiction, to sense it, but never to understand it. Materialism is very old, comrades, as well as dialectics, are parallel, contemporary in origin, have more than 2550 years in the West, we owe it to the Greeks. But it has been Marx who took the idea as a derivation of matter, fusing dialectics with matter, who gave the great transformation generating the new philosophy, the exhaustive and complete philosophy not in a closed sense, that is why we cannot talk about system, system implies closed circle and knowledge is spiral, everybody remembers what a spiral is, it is not a closed circle and neither the circles that form the spiral are closed, it is not true that, they are not.
Revolution is understood by Maoists today as people’s war. People’s war is the masses’ own war and is led by the communist party, which is the proletariat’s only party. The people’s war must initially destroy the enemy’s power with violence and create a vacuum of power in some areas, and eventually in more and more areas. In this vacuum of power, the proletariat must construct its own power in the form of peoples’ committees, which in the start must be clandestine (secret) and must exercise the proletariat’s state power under development. The new power resolves the problem of the masses by mobilizing the masses themselves and by basing itself on mass organizations that organize the masses, as well as on the armed power of the people’s army that is led directly by the communist party.
That revolution is inevitable is shown by all of history. No classes have voluntarily given up their power. The bourgeoisie in particular has shown that they are willing to do whatever it takes to hold onto their power. They wage wars of extermination, carry out genocides, torture people, persecute and murder, all to protect their power and their profits. This is no different in the imperialist countries, and rather the contrary. Those who wish to see examples of the brutality that the imperialists are willing to unleash on the masses can look at the US and how the Yankee state liquidated Black leaders in the 1960s and 70s. The Norwegian bourgeoisie dropped hundreds of bombs on Libya in 2011—they are willing to take things much further to hold onto their power.
Revolution, i.e. people’s war, is necessary on one side to destroy the enemy’s forces, and on the other side to build up the proletariat’s own power, to seize and defend the political power for the proletariat, and primarily the latter side. This is a universal law that applies for all countries in the world without exception.

Mao’s revolutionary development and life leaves the International Communist Movement and the masses of the world a great story of struggle, rupture and transformation. Mao came from a peasant-class origin but developed a proletarian-class stand through Marxism. He, at an early age, rebelled against the old feudalist customs and ideas kept alive by the old state, rejecting his arranged marriage, abandoning his peasant family’s affluence, rebelling against his bourgeois teachers (this would leave a lasting influence on his theorization on the rule of the Chinese superstructure of society and in particular the role of revolutionary education) , etc. He dove into revolutionary student and peasant organizing, aligning himself with the nationalist Chinese movement led by the Kuomintang under the leadership of Chinese national hero Sun Yat-sen, father of Chang Kai-shek. In 1911, early on as a young soldier for Sun Yat-sen’s army in the capital city of Changsha of his native province of Hunan Mao got his first experience in a revolutionary military, another lasting influence on his political development which undoubtedly contributed to his development as a great revolutionary military strategist. Mao’s continued revolutionary development as a trained soldier-turned student organizer in Changsha and then at the PekingbUniversity of Beijing, forming a progressive study group with future original cofounding members of the Chinese Communist Party. After the founding of the Party, through the Civil War against the nationalists with the Red Army and then waging the anti-imperialist war against Japan with the People’s Liberation Army, then onward to the establishment of the People’s Republic of China on October 1, 1949, and then the launching and closing of the GPCR from 1966 to 1976, Mao shows us nothing short of these historic feats, or as he said in his own words: “nothing is hard in this world if you dare to scale the heights.”
