This topic is very unpleasant, because the Soviet Union collapsed 30 years ago, leaving the United States alone, the wave of socialist revolution in the world is at a low point, but after the trough often heralds new hope, the so-called winter has arrived, will spring be far away?
Since the outbreak of the epidemic last year, various contradictions in the capitalist world have suddenly erupted, demonstrations and demonstrations have continued, although the demands are different, but in the final analysis, the essence is the sharp opposition of class contradictions, which have been hidden under other contradictions and divided the forces of the oppressed people, which is also the result of decades of propaganda and education by western capitalized media. Through the deconstruction of the core contradiction of class contradiction in the media controlled by Western capital, the most fundamental contradiction of class contradiction is covered up with the problems of ethnic contradictions, immigrants and local masses, as well as the contradictions between men and women, and even homosexuality, provoking many inexplicable contradictions, and even through the creation of concepts, constructing a system of topics, describing the essence of class contradictions as ethnic contradictions, racial contradictions, contradictions between new and old immigrants, and so on, including terrorism is also defined as the clash of civilizations.
Under such propaganda, the Western world seems to deconstruct class contradictions, but in fact it only replaces the topics of class contradictions with other topics of contradictions created. But as a result, the attention of the people in the Western world is limited to the interests of the small groups around them, and the result is that the level of public awareness is within a very narrow range, and they are not allowed to cross the thunder pool.
Although class contradictions are deconstructed into other types of contradictions through media propaganda, the essence of class contradictions has not changed in any way. The lack of public awareness does not mean that contradictions do not exist.
In recent times, various demonstrations in the Western world have been manifested in acts such as resisting lockdowns and wearing masks, but in essence they are still widening the gap between the rich and the poor. Ordinary people cannot afford the cost of lockdown, and even the demonstrations organized in the name of environmental protection are still fair, that is, the unfairness of bearing the consequences of pollution, resulting in the early intolerance of any possible pollution, and the consequences of boycotting.
In fact, I believe that any movement that involves the demand for fairness should be called a socialist movement. As I said earlier, socialism pursues primarily the issue of social justice. In the historical stage of capitalist dominance, any revolutionary issue involving social equity should be called a socialist revolutionary movement. This is determined by the essential character of the socialist revolutionary movement.
What is the conclusion?
In the present historical stage, since the world is still dominated by the capitalist system, under the historical stage of the capitalist system, any movement for equal freedom and rights should be classified as a socialist revolutionary movement.
In this sense, the whole world is basically in the midst of a period of revolutionary movement. The only thing that is uncertain is whether such movements involve the leadership of Marxist political parties. If there is a Marxist political party, then this is really a socialist revolutionary movement.
To sum up, all kinds of movements in the present world can be summed up as socialist revolutionary movements. The only thing that needs to be discerned is whether there is a Marxist party leader. If it has the attributes of Marxist party leadership, it can be rigorously proved that such freight rates have the attributes of a Marxist revolutionary movement, that is, the world is in the midst of a socialist revolutionary movement under the leadership of the proletariat.
