I think this is a pebble picked-up from a Torbay Beach – and painted by my mother – Diane Wyles! We take to wherever we travel – an take a photograph with it! It is like those travelling pebbles you see everywhere nowadays – but politically subversive! The struggle of the workers is universal and ongoing – regardless of the forces of oppression arrayed against us – and those forces can be substantial! Take solace that the dialectical power of history is on your side despite your individual misery – and that one-day its class buoyancy will remedy the alienating inversion – and turned everything the right way around! Today’s suffering will become tomorrow’s joy and liberation! As Marx said, prepare for betrayal and setback – prepare for ruthless oppression. These things will come to the workers with the greatest of ease. What we must fight for is our own liberation – and this is a battle that will be long and hard! Collective freedom is only achieved through often immense individual suffering. When the Irish Nationalists used to be Marxists – they used to say “Alone – Together!” – as well as “Down with Trotsky!” The fake Solidarity Movement in late 1980s Poland was orchestrated by the Western-backed Trotskyites – who took power away from the Marxist-Leninists – and handed it straight to the capitalists and the fascists! The workers must know who their true enemies – and genuine friends – are!
