D i ‑mittotr says it is "rabid reaction and ecuntet-revo‑lotion.” (Working Class Against Fascism, p. 14.)Note: In order to think clearly about Communismit is well always to translate the word Fascism when‑ever “they use it as anti-Communist. When theCommunisc o r a t o r pleads for the union of the em‑ployed, or the unemployed, or the Negro, or s t u ‑dents to fight agaimt Fascism, remember Fascismto a Communist is anti-Communism.26. Q.

THE. Tacncs or COMMUNISM1329. Q. Do the Communists say they a r e op‑posed to War?A. Yes. Hence the formation of Leagues againstWar.30. Q. Are they really opposed to War?A.

Wars againsr Com‑munism to them are always wrong.31. What do the Communists m e a n whenthey u s e the word “Peace”?A. Peace means the establishment of the Com‑munist regime. Peace under an},r other régime isinconceivable to Communism. “The fight to main‑tain peace is a fight against Fascism, a fight that isessentially revolutionary.” (G. Dimitrov, TbeUnited Struggle for Peace, 13. 18, Workers’ Libraryedition.) "The anti-war struggle of the massesm u S t be very «clotznsehr combined with the struggleagainst Fascism [anti-Communism] and the Fascistmovement.” (Resolutions of the Seventh AnnualCongress, International Correspondence, Septem‑be: 19, 1935, p. 1184.

14THE Tscnos or COMMUNISMand Fascism and the. friend of the Farmer andLaborer?A. We are to understand that Communism haschanged n o t its principles, but its tactics. In orderto understand the difference let us assume that A isa robber by profession. He decides to rob B, C andD, foreihl)r entering their homes, hitting eachover the head with a bludgcon and then steal‑ing their possessions. He succeeds with B but findsthat C and D p u t up considerable opposition andfight him off, and thereafter carry guns to preventa future robbery. A now decides to give up vio‑lence asa means of robbery. And so he plans torob E, F and G in a nonr way. He invites them todinner, tells them that he likes their families, theirchildren, goes to church with them. joins the samegolf clubs and then is finally invited into their homesfor s week-end during which he robs them. Notethat the principle of A's life would have remainedunchanged, but his tactics would have changed. Hewould have used non-violent methods to attain hisend.Now this is what Communism is doing today.It has found that its revolutionary approach hasbeen unsuccessful. Some countries have resistedand organized, and so, it decides to change its tacticsand to use nonurevolutionar}? approaches to attainrevolutionary ends.

Dimitrov, Tbs Working Class w.Fascism, p. 32. Italics in original; brackets mine.)39. Q. Do the United Front tactics applyoven to the Youth?A. Yes. "The central task of the Youth Com‑munist International is to establish unity of theyouth movement against Fascism and war.” ( 0 .Kuusinen in his address to the Seventh World Canegross, "The Youth Movement and the Fight AgainstFascism and the War Danger,” Russian edition.Printshop No. 7, Moscow, p. 24.
