Class collaboration
Class collaborationism, or class collaboration, is a bourgeois ideological endeavor which attempts to reconcile the class struggle between owning and working class. Throughout history, class collaborationism has been a powerful weapon of the bourgeoisie. A substantial amount of class-collaborationism falls into nationalism, which claims to create "unity" of all the citizens of a nation[a], regardless of class.
Marxist-Leninists must fight class collaborationism and fight for the proletarian struggle against the bourgeoisie. Class collaborationism is fundamentally anti-science and anti-materialist, as it does not understand that class decides the relation of people to material products needed to survive, and that the interests of the proletariat and bourgeoisie is fundamentally irreconcilable.
Some class collaborationists include Mao Zedong, Adolf Hitler, and Karl Kautsky.
