Bristol Revolutionary Communist Party

‼️This Saturday, 13th June, we'll be hosting the RCP Bristol Day School on philosophy, starting at 10.30 am at The Louisiana!‼️

In the advanced session we'll be discussing Hegel, the highest peak of all classical philosophy.

Classical philosophy attempts to draw universal and eternal laws that can describe the world. But all philosophers before Hegel (and most after) find themselves trapped in irreconcilable contradictions.

Postmodernists today get so tangled up that they even deny the possibility of understanding anything at all.

But Hegel studied the progression of philosophy, science, and culture in all its manifoldness, how we can know things and we continue to know more.

He found that to grasp anything in the world, you must meticulously break it into its many contradictory parts, understand each of them in their relations and their process, and find their unity, their totality, their essence.

It is this radical method of Hegel that Marx uses to engross himself into a study of class society and capital; starting from our conditions, not our ideas.

As soon as the dialectical method is placed on this physical, tangible, material basis, the only conclusion is that to move humanity forward, it is not enough to just describe the world, but we must strive to change it! 🚩

This weekend, 36 comrades from Bristol and Bath took to the streets despite torrential rain to spread the call for revolution, and the demand to wipe out the Epstein Class!

We decided to have a ‘red mile’ from one side of the Bristol City Centre to the other. We began by discussing the Epstein Class centre page article and a briefing on Ehsan Ali, our imprisoned comrade in Pakistan, and called for his release!

The day was dominated by torrential rain, however our political preparation proved that comrades were inspired to stay out all day selling papers and having conversations. We reminded each other of our bolshevik attitude that we smash through any obstacles we are given and that our comrades in Pakistan are being tortured, harrassed and imprisoned meanwhile we are just a little wet!

One comrade spoke to a student who was in Nepal at the time of the revolution. They discussed the lessons to be learnt from the revolution and this student independently came to the conclusion that the movement lacked revolutionary leadership to carry it to its conclusion.

Another comrade was so excited that they realised when answering questions from the public they were no longer hesitating and that her conversations were going on for so much longer. She recognised all the work she had done in the past few months and could see the results of her dedication to theory in practice.

Two comrades chatted to a 16 year old who said they didn’t care about the rain and was desperate to listen to the ideas. We found that many people already had one of our newspapers in their hand.

Our enthusiasm inspired members of the public:
we aren’t just selling newspapers we’re selling ideas.
We sold over 50 papers and spoke with at least 70 - 100 people, and at least 15 expressed interest in joining the party.

No matter the weather, we know there are young revolutionary workers and students out there who want to change the world. And we're going to find them!
So now we need you to join us. Get yourself a copy of the Communist at one of our stalls, or go to communist.red/subscribe!

‼️Our comrades are being killed‼️

The Pakistani state is arresting our comrades in the Awami Action Committee (AAC) and the Inqalabi Communist Party on trumped up charges of terrorism for planning a peaceful protest against the plunder of Gilgit Baltistan by capitalist forces.

For this sin against the agents of capital, our comrades have been arrested and left for dead, including the old and sick leader, Ehsan Ali.

The Pakistani state has only upped its repressive measures. *Martyring* a comrade and sending paramilitary forces to put down the resulting protests.

The protests and strikes in the region are strong and are exposing the weakness of their ruling class. And they need the solidarity of the international working class!

🚩All eyes of Gilgit Baltistan! We will not let them disappear our comrades! Write a letter to your MP, pass a motion in your union, join our protests outside an embassy.🚩

We will free our comrades‼️

DAY SCHOOL - SATURDAY 13TH JUNE
The world is rapidly changing. All the old truths are being proven false in real time. Capitalism is in a deep crisis, the state is in tatters and society is filled with anger and malaise. A spectre is haunting the world, the spectre of communism.

Revolutions are on the agenda, not just revolutions against governments, but also revolutions in consciousness, thought, science and society as a whole.
To understand a turbulent, changing world, where nothing is permanent, we need a philosophy. It isn't enough to accept the old ways, the old ideas and hypocritical morality of the capitalist class. A revolutionary must have a revolutionary philosophy - that is, a revolutionary way to understand the world. And there is no better philosophy for the task than Dialectical Materialism.
That is what we'll be discussing this Saturday, starting 10.30am at the Louisiana on Wapping Rd BS1 6UA.
We'll have three talks:
An introduction to dialectical materialism, for those new to Marxism and keen to find out more
At the same time, we'll have a session on In defence of Hegel - getting to the roots of Marxist philosophy by studying one of the greatest philosophers of history, who inspired Marx and Engels
And we'll finish with Reason in Revolt - based on the book by Ted Grant and Alan Woods, which applies dialectical materialism to a better understanding of modern science, showing the need not just for a revolution in economics, but in mind also.

The event is free for all to come along, and we welcome all revolutionaries keen to study the way forward, not just to interpret the world, but to change it!

10.30 Doors Open
11.00 Intro to Dialectical Materialism or In Defence of Hegel
13.30 Lunch
14.30 Reason in Revolt
17.00 Finish

(We'll likely also be down the pub after for a social!)

Bristol branch 2 was out in the sun at College Green this Saturday talking to students and workers about wiping out the Epstein class. We are building the revolutionary party capable of holding these depraved billionaires to account and ensuring they can never get away with their crimes again. These criminals are product of the global capitalist system and to wipe out the Epstein class, we need a revolution that puts the needs of people over profit.

To build this party, we need people like you to join us. The time is now to get involved and build a better world for all of humanity.

We'll be out in force this Saturday June 6th across the whole city centre, so don't miss us! Come to the stall, pick up your copy of The Communist, some revolutionary literature and join the RCP!

Comrades from Bristol 4 were out in the summer sun today talking to revolutionary workers and youth about the burning need to wipeout the Epstein class, for a revolution against the billionaires, and to help build the revolutionary party capable of emancipating humanity from the never ending crisis of capitalism. (Spoke to a few crazies too, which always sharpens the reflexes and makes sure the fundamentals are firmly understood 😂.)

Never has there been such a greater task posed by history. We need you 🫵! If you want to join and help build the Party which will lead the international working class in storming heaven then dm to get involved 📝.

DOWN WITH THE RACISTS AND THE WARMONGERS
WIPE OUT THE EPSTEIN CLASS

This weekend, we planted the red flag and matched through Bristol with the banner of revolutionary communism!
We're bringing the revolutionary alternative to the front - not just to build for another A-B march, but to build a revolutionary party, to train up leaders for a new generation of class struggle!

We're only just getting started. We need to urgently grow our forces to over 100 revolutionary communists in Bristol over the next year. Britain is a tinder box ready to be lit of fire, and we cannot wait, we must prepare here and now.

The general strike for Palestine in Italy last autumn shows the way forward. We changed clearly: 'Block Everything For Palestine, the Workers can end Genocide!'.
But for that to happen, we need serious, dedicated revolutionary leaders. That's why we need you!
Are you going to be at our next revolutionary bloc? Are you going to attend our summer education day schools? Are you going to join the RCP?

DM or head to communist.red/join

Today at the Nakba day demo, march with the communists under the banner of 🚩"DOWN with the RACISTS and WARMONGERS — WIPE OUT THE EPSTEIN CLASS!"🚩

It is the Epstein class that have been carrying out this genocide in Gaza, it's the Epstein class that have been continuing the horrific invasion of Iran, and it is the Epstein class that have been carrying out austerity, ruining our lives to fund this war machine!

We don't need peace-and-love politics, we don't need to ask the senile powers that be to be nicer, we need a revolutionary way forward!

While the ruling class prepare for war, we prepare for CLASS WAR. 🚩

If you want a free Palestine; if you want to overthrow the bosses, the bankers, and the billionaires; if you want to wipe out the Epstein class...

Then you need to join the communists and firmly plant the red flag in the centre of Bristol this Saturday, 10:30am, at St Peter's Church.

We have a world to win, and there are revolutionaries in your city, already building for it. Join the RCP today‼️
