Acción pública en Francia realizada por el Colectivo "Ethique sur l'étiquette" #soldées

Humanity is living through its most dramatic moment since the industrial revolution of the 18th century, and life on the planet has never been so threatened.

The consumerism implemented by the capitalist mode of production, the accelerated destruction of our common home, Mother Earth, the concentration of wealth in the hands of 1% of the world's families, the advance of imperialism and its war industry, the investment of trillions of dollars to develop their domains and appropriate the natural resources of the peoples of Africa, Asia and Latin America are affecting our lives.

Alongside all this, the control of billions of people by algorithms, pushing them to live and believe in a parallel universe, where fake news becomes "truth", creating fertile ground for fascism. Just look at what has happened in Bolsonaro's Brazil, in today's Argentina, in Ecuador, El Salvador, Hungary and in the advance of the far right in civilized Europe.

In this frightening scenario, the serious leaders of the working class - who represent by far the majority of the world's exploited population - are looking for ways out, because they understand that this is a decisive moment in history.

 On this May 1st, we must lead this reflection and appropriate diverse knowledge, mobilizing men and women in a fight that goes beyond labor rights, the fight is now for Life.

The Good News continues to be our source of inspiration, carrying the Jesus Project forward and linking it to other movements such as: the struggle of indigenous peoples, the struggle for racial and gender equality, the essential struggle to defend the environment, for participatory democracy. The struggle for a universal minimum income and, consequently, for the taxation of the richest. And most of all, the struggles against the genocide of the Palestinian people and against the massacre of other peoples taking place in different parts of the world.

These are challenges facing every WMCW activist involved in the various movements in the places where we live.

These are difficult times, life is in danger, but the future of humanity is in the minds and hands of organized and united workers.
