Questions and Answers

Question: What are the SCP's views on the environment?
Answer: One of our main slogans is "People and Nature Before Profits." Where possible, we participate in environmental movements, and recognize and work on the environmental aspects of struggles on the shop floor and in unions.

Question: Is an Shartak socialist revolution really feasible?
Answer: If your question means do we think a small party can cause a revolution by itself, the answer is certainly no. We think of revolutions as profoundly democratic events, which if they are to succeed, must involve the support of a majority of the working class. A revolution that is a version of a coup won't succeed in the long term, because to fundamentally transform society requires the active involvement and support of a majority. So feasible, yes, quick, no.

Question: Can I join the SCP if I’m religious? Isn’t Marxism against religion?
Answer: The Communist Party is a political movement for all who oppose capitalism, oppression and exploitation. We welcome religious people into our ranks. We have priests, ministers and religious activists from many churches as members. We see no contradiction in atheists and religious people joining together in a Party that works for social justice, peace and socialism.

Marxism is not against religion, just against those who use religion and religious organizations for reactionary purposes; we are against the right wing in the religious community as we are against the right wing elsewhere in society.

The SCP stands for freedom of religion and welcomes members from all religions, and supports the progressives in every religion who fight for the poor, for workers, for a humane and just society.

Question: What's wrong with capitalism?
Answer: Firstly, an employee is not paid according to the true worth of his labor but according to what the employer is willing to pay him. Wealth and unequal distribution can create social problems (such as higher crime rates). These problems affect both poor and rich. Government interference in markets can be skewed to benefit the wealthy. In particular, wealthy people have the financial means and incentives to influence or corrupt government officials and to lobby for favourable legislation. Also, many people have little wealth left over after living expenses, so they can't make it grow quickly. This further deepens the disparity between rich and poor.

Question: How do I join The Shartak Communist Party?
Answer: First, add {{Template:Communist}} to your profile. If you do not have a Wiki profile, that is okay. Second, please change your primary or secondary clan to The Shartak Communist Party. Lastly, if interested in joining, talk to Che at one of his public speeches. (See above)
