In sum: the Anti‐Komintern (not to be confused with the Anti‐Comintern Pact) was an often anti‐Semitic and self‐styled ‘NGO’ that sought to spread anticommunist propaganda as far as possible. If this sounds awfully similar to the World Anti‐Communist League, that’s because it kind of is: remnants from the Anti‐Komintern (and the Eastern European Ostpolitik) would go on to establish this organization with Imperial America’s help.

Be sure to check out the sixth page, where it says that ‘the early stages of its activity particular emphasis appears to have been placed on the cultivation of links with Poland […] and, in particular, the recent developments in German–Polish relations, which had been partially designed to facilitate future political co-operation against Bolshevism.’ Needless to say, it isn’t too likely that you or anybody else learned facts like these in school.

If you want to know more about this organization (and can stomach an academic’s obnoxious liberalism for a while), read Back from the USSR: The Anti‐Comintern’s Publications on Soviet Russia in Nazi Germany (1935–41).

Capitalism in Decay

Fascism is capitalism in decay. As with anticommunism in general, the ruling class has oversimplified this phenomenon to the point of absurdity and teaches but a small fraction of its history. This is the spot for getting a serious understanding of it (from a more proletarian perspective) and collecting the facts that contemporary anticommunists are unlikely to discuss.

Posts should be relevant to either fascism or neofascism, otherwise they belong in [email protected]. If you are unsure if the subject matter is related to either, share it there instead. Off‐topic posts shall be removed.

No capitalist apologia or other anticommunism. No bigotry, including racism, misogyny, ableism, heterosexism, or xenophobia. Be respectful. This is a safe space where all comrades should feel welcome.

For our purposes, we consider early Shōwa Japan to be capitalism in decay.
