International Workers' Day, 1st of May, is the day of those who create the wealth but themselves have the smallest share of the existing riches and fortunes. 1st of May is the day of those people who do not want the world the way it is. Workers of the world will march the streets in millions on this day to cry out their immediate demands from and their protests against the existing order. However, the events of the last decade of twentieth and the first decade of twenty-first centuries emphasise that nothing is more immediate than rejecting the totality of the capitalist order. Capitalists and the states that protect this order actively use every apparatus to deteriorate the historical gains of the working class and to retreat societies in an unrecoverable manner. They have turned poverty, unemployment, and degradation into the norm of societies. They have brought reactionism, superstition and religious bandits into the centre of societies. They continuously threaten people at their homes, their work places, on the streets, in the market places with war and terrorism. They torture and kill ruthlessly and there is no place for humanity within their competition. Their "New Order" is well-known, archaic, and total reactionism. Their promised democracy is an oppressive and agonizing system and is the battlefield of religious sects, ethnic groups and multicoloured criminals. Their morality is corruption, slander, and charlatanism. Their justice is nothing but deprivation of the majority from the social riches and wealth. The interests of the free market and the logic of profit cruelly and unrestrainedly rule. The owners of capitalist monopolies have the fate of all humanity in their hands and have the first and the last say in global politics. 1st of May is the day to say no to capitalism. 1st of May is the day of the humanity that is in need of justice, freedom, welfare and truth. Workers! Women and men! We should turn 1st of May into the promise of emancipation of humankind from the rule of capitalists and from the exploiting, brutal, and barbarous capitalist order. 1st of May should reverberate Marx's message all around the globe. 1st of May should be the echo of the will of the working class to free humanity from the yoke of exploitation, injustice, waged slavery, and the competition and warfare between and the terrorism of various capitalist groups and states. On 1st of May, we should march the streets carrying Marx's pictures and chanting long live socialism. Long
