Against anti-fascism: Amadeo Bordiga’s last interview
libcom.org
The text of the interview was originally published in Storia Contemporanea no. 3, September 1973. Bordiga also spoke to journalists Sergio Zavoli and Edek Osser for a filmed interview, excerpts of which were included in a documentary on the rise of Fascism. Translated by Giovanni Tiso.

We steadfastly maintained that the real enemy and foremost danger was not Fascism, much less Mussolini the man, but rather the anti-fascism that Fascism – with all of its crimes and infamies – would have created. This anti-fascism would breathe life into that great poisonous monster, a great bloc comprising every form of capitalist exploitation, along with all of its beneficiaries: from the great plutocrats down to the laughable ranks of the half-bourgeois, intellectuals and the laity.

"We need to fight fascism by voting for these two New Jim Crow finance imperialists/prison slavers" read Marx, cancerous radlibs :amber:

    Anti fascism and anti imperialism, especially today, are contradictory positions as far as Marxism is concerned because there is no internationale to hold those two halfs together.

    If an imperial power invades a fascist one then which side do you take?

    Can you agitate for revolutionary defeatism if the alternative is a foreign capitalist over a local capitalist? What's revolutionary about that? Why do you even need Marxism to justify taking a liberal position?
