The uncritical support of any form of action by the oppressed is indicative of the political weakness and helplessness of the Left today. The Left does not bother to analyse and try to influence contemporary resistance movements because it has ceased to believe in the possibility of leftist, revolutionary action and leadership in the contemporary world. Having naturalized its inability to influence situations in the present, it is caught by and becomes the tail of any force that opposes and disrupts the existing order, without seeking subjects and forms of struggle that bring closer the socialist transcendence of capitalism. The hypothesis of the radical transformation of society was thus replaced by the vague notion of resistance. Finding itself in a historical situation of unprecedented weakness, the Left is drawn to violence because violence both expresses the rage generated by its helplessness and hides this helplessness behind an explosion of action. Hence, the acceptance of the violence of the oppressed as a cathartic force that comes to break the oppressive and alienating bourgeois legitimacy from the outside, since the Left cannot overcome it from within. | The uncritical support of any form of action by the oppressed is indicative of the political weakness and helplessness of the Left today.
