We, as communists, fight fascism without reserves, and at the same time we fight any form of bourgeoise power. Historically, fascism has been a response to class struggles and to the communist movement. Its roots are to be individuated in the capitalist mode of production and in the bourgeoise power which, in case of need or opportunity, does not hesitate to dismiss its democratic mask to show its real reactionary face.

This is the reason why we believe that alliances with bourgeoise forces in antifascist function are wrong, leading to bitter defeats, if antifascism is meant as just a struggle against this particular form of bourgeoise power and for the defence of bourgeoise democracy; in fact, it is the bourgeoisie itself which constitutes the supporting substrate of all fascist regimes. Instead, we’ve ever been favourable and promoters of initiatives of “united fronts from below”, i.e. the union of all proletarians to defend themselves and contrast the bourgeoise power, the more when it presents itself with unbearable ferocity, but without giving in to compromises with bourgeoise leaderships and their reformist programs.
