“Organization without intellectual activity is the hallmark of bourgeois organization. The bourgeois organization is the bourgeois class state in miniature. The ruling class within the organization “looks after” the “interests” of the dominated. The age of reformism, of unfolding capitalism, did not present the proletariat with practical revolutionary tasks; capitalism fulfilled its social functions poorly. The working class struggled for elbow room within capitalism as a class; its struggle for emancipation within the bourgeois world was, from a historical perspective, revolutionary in the bourgeois sense. But it was not aimed at overthrowing the capitalist system. The question of capitalism and communism was not on the agenda. The struggle of the proletariat for social reforms, for political concessions, was not directed against the bourgeois class state as such, but for the transformation of the bourgeois class state without shaking the capitalist order in principle. Consequently, organization and tactics also had to be bourgeois. In order to push through possible demands within the framework of unfolding capitalism, “pressure” from below was sufficient. The “weight” of the masses was enough. Sufficient were the masses that could be thrown into the fray as objects, sufficient were the much-vaunted discipline and unity. The demands made in each case made no demands on the creative power of the proletariat but were addressed to the bourgeoisie for fulfillment. The capitalist division of labour brought with it the ever-increasing political and organizational dependence of the organization on the leadership, which was conditioned by the intellectual lack of autonomy of the proletariat. The organization became the property of the leadership. However, this fact only had a practical effect when capitalism experienced its twilight and world war broke out. The proletariat was faced with a different task as a class. The proletarian revolution cannot be carried out by the bourgeoisie, communism cannot be introduced by the leaders. The mental and physical strength to overthrow the old and create the new must come from the masses themselves. The class boundary does not run where the last worker stands, and the first capitalist begins but is drawn by the class knowledge slowly born in the class struggles and revolutionary experiences. The revolutionary, the creative principle breaks the old organizational shells and barriers and stands in the struggle against the old world. Thus the new organization with the new content is already born in the revolutionary process. The proletariat recognizes that it is not enough to “want” something, but that action must come first. This action, in turn, is not merely a display of personal courage, but first and foremost the elaboration of the programmatic and tactical path, the realization of the conditions and tasks to be solved in the revolution on the basis of the conditions of the revolution. Those who “want” the revolution must want it for themselves. The ability to seize the right moment in the revolution, in revolutionary struggles, to successfully exploit conquered positions, to keep one's head up in apparent or actual confusion and to act unwaveringly and confidently cannot be “learned” but arises from the respective theoretical stage of the proletariat. The respective Class Consciousness! A communist is not someone who wears a Soviet star on every jacket, but someone who thinks in a revolutionary way. Who always thinks only of the revolution and demands the highest of himself. Who does not shy away from any question but realizes that anyone who wants to be something practical must know what he wants to do. Whoever is content with a commitment to revolution and tries to replace everything else with shouting remains, despite his personal courage, a petty bourgeois, an object in the hands of those who are superior to him.”
