Yesterday I read an article by some western idiot criticizing the Turkish revolutionary organization Dev Sol for being out of date, because they dare use terms like "imperialist" to describe u.s. actions all over the world, and for using "cold war rhetoric". Well, maybe he's right. Perhaps the way the yanks march all over the place telling people how to run their affairs "or else", is more outright fascist than imperialist. You can die in Guantanamo waiting to see a lawyer, or waiting for anything even resembling a trial, merely on suspicion of being a "terrorist". And as far as class war and cold war rhetoric goes, how could that not be relevant? Living conditions for the majority of the world have gotten much much worse over the last two and a half decades, the electoral system has never been more transparently useless, so the only way out for many is armed struggle. The class system is more pronounced and enforced by the workings of the system than ever. All of this shit has to go. I may not be the most die-hard supporter of this particular revolutionary group, but as far as being relevant, they are far more relevant to today's state of the world than the comfortable amerikkkan moron who sits back and criticizes them for fighting against injustice.
