“Imperialism”
Tokyo (AP) — China's communists classify “imperialists” into two kinds: imperialists and “social-imperialists.” The latter, taken from the works of Lenin, refers to Soviet leaders.
An article on imperialism, published in the June 30, 1972 issue of Peking Review, received in Tokyo on Sunday, said: “The Soviet revisionists are social-imperialists, pure and simple.”
The article, written by Shih Chun who was not further identified, quoted Lenin as saying that social-imperialists are “socialists in words and imperialists in deeds.”
“We clearly see today that the Soviet revisionist leading clique is following the words and deeds that Lenin repudiated. ([Not exactly, Imperialists in WWI Imperial Pan-Germanic German Empire, and Wall Street, financed Trotsky and Lenin's overthrow of Russia]) While paying lip-service to socialism and even to ‘communism,’ it in fact pursues the imperialist policy of expansion and plunder and tries to carve out spheres of influence by every means.”
The article said the Soviet Union and the United States carry out “aggression, subversion, control and interference…everywhere in the world.” This, it added, is “the expression of their last-ditch struggle.” ([Naturally, because multi-national Anglo-Saxon-dominated Industrialists built the Soviet machine! which had proven quite lucrative to the military industry for a century.])
It described imperialism as “moribund, not dead, capitalism.”
