There have been times for delay and compromise; now is the time to organize for all that humanity needs to survive. This will be very difficult to achieve, but we can.

People’s lives are under attack. Industrial workers, retail, farmers, teachers, tech, artists, government workers…you name it.

Take the Offensive, Organize!

We have to go beyond just defensive strategies, and take the offensive. We have to build for political power; the power to direct and coordinate human and material resources to the tasks of survival and dignity for all people and the planet. Many organizations and individuals are already fighting bravely, but our actions are mostly to defend against these attacks – and even where we’re on offense, our efforts are still scattered. We need unity, and unity is built around the practical needs we all face.

Essence of Fascism

Trump, Musk and their cronies are declaring “we will make your public property, and your personal property, our private property to profit from.” This is the essence of fascism; an aggressive campaign to bring everything under corporate control for oligarch profits, and a corporate dictatorship. Fascism can’t be fought defensively, or from the middle; it has to be attacked, from an opposite pole.

Project 2025 is the open declaration of the fascist program of the capitalist class. The Democratic Party is in disarray. Government by either party consistently fails to protect humanity against corporate crimes, and consistently defends corporate rights to commit crimes against people and planet.

Tasks Ahead, What can be the pole opposing this?

When you think about the tasks facing us if humanity is to survive and thrive, their vastness and complexity, is it possible to imagine that we can accomplish them with the materials and processes of the planet owned by private companies and billionaires?

Capitalism is killing us, and destroying the planet. We need huge change. We will need to make their private property our public property. To do that, we need to create a new kind of political power, and a new kind of political party that represents the needs of humanity and the planet, not corporations and the rich. The foundation for that isn’t candidates or slogans; it’s a comprehensive program stating all of our necessities.

Program of the People of the World

The next step needed is the development and open statement of the full program of the people of the world – the global working class, the 99.5%. Not simply a list of necessities or demands, but an in-depth, programmatic discussion of how the tasks for survival will be organized, resourced, integrated, and carried out, how an economy based on people and planet can replace the failing capitalist, “I’m rich, make me richer” economy, and how the political unity and political power needed for those tasks will be achieved. Our needs will unite us. People are already starting to do this on any scale they can. This paper is an attempt to accelerate that discussion.

What are the practical needs of humanity? They are not incremental, not partial, and not narrow. They can’t be siloed, they’re interdependent and interconnected. They are concrete, specific, strategic, and they are physical, political, economic, environmental, social, emotional and spiritual. They are transformational. They are all essential. These are our demands. They require a new kind of politics.

While a list is not a program, spelling them out comprehensively is a crucial step now that can unleash the motion toward a revolutionary party of our class. Seeing all our needs in one place makes crystal clear that capitalism is incapable of the solution.

Working Class Party

Let any proto-party formation take up that challenge, and say; “This is what we need, this is what we will have; this is what our candidates will stand for, this is what we will do. We’re calling the first of an ongoing series of interdisciplinary conferences to begin strategizing how we will do this; we will identify the issues and forces that block the necessary changes, and how we intend to overcome those blocks. In doing this, we will lay the foundation of a new way of governance.”
