      Also add this for Russia, China, North Korea, and historically most of european countries.

      What’s the common part? That this is not war between nations, or races, it’s a class war. Creating ruling class always ends like this. Too much power in a hands of a too few people, authoritarian regime, and this is a recipe for a crisis.

        It doesn’t matter if a country is authoritarian or democratic, every bourgeois nation state currently in the existence partakes in brutalization of proles and furthering the interests of capital.

        Put all of the countries in there, workers have no nation.

          It doesn’t matter if a country is authoritarian or democratic

          It matters a lot. Authoritarian is evil from the beginning. If you have authoritarianism, then you’re giving the power to a small group of people, therefore creating new rulling class. And as we know from the history, a lot of power in a hands of few, always corrupts.

          It doesn’t matter who is your lord, or how is your master is presenting himself. Doesn’t matter if he is saying that god send him here, or his parents were kings, or he earn tons of money thanks to other people work, or he is a “working class” hero who now want to control other workers and people.

          Democracy gives you chance to change that, to at least change who is making decision, who is in power. That’s why oligarchs wants to take control of democracy, by creating one or two party system (China, USA, CCCP), or they will take control over media, and destroy independent journalism so no one knows what’s going on (Russia).
