Stalinazism! Latin American CP’s Aim at Coalition with Native Nazis

Although the Stalinists, with the adaptivity they have learned from their “great teacher”, deny their alliance with the native Nazis, the facts prove it. Without the crucial alliance the military counter – revolution could not have occurred in Peru, nor the general strike in defence of the Nazi leaders in Bolivia, nor the victory of Peronism in Argentina, nor the defeat of the APRA in Peru and the “Democratic Alliance” in Venezuela [...].

The independent workers’ movement and Marxist theory must remain firm before the Nazi-Stalinist offensive. The bourgeois revolution in Latin America took place during the war of American independence and was partially realised by Simon Bolivar and San Martin. The economic dependence of South America has a modern character within the framework of contemporary imperialism, and can only be done away with by the American and world Socialist revolution. “National Liberation”, therefore, is a Nazi-Stalinist fraud, empty and without revolutionary content.
