Operation cover-up in the Rizwanur murder case is proceeding as predicted. One will have to wait till December 16 to get the final verdict from the CBI: Rizwanur committed suicide because his own brother and Pappu betrayed him. An absolutely open and shut case. The victim killed himself because of his own family members.
Who says Ashok Todi or any of the Todis had a hand in all this? Who says the police threatened Rizwanur? Who says the Todis threatened Rizwanur? See how poor girl Priyanka’s life has come to a standstill since she made the mistake of falling in love with a boy who comes from a poor greedy family from another community only seeking to grab the riches of her oh so clean and pure father, the devout God fearing man that he is?
So what will happen now? The political mandarins, the great friends of the poor who had called for a CBI probe so that justice is done to the victim and his family and the “real” culprits brought to book, what will they say now?
Will the rich, the state machinery and all politicians from the extreme left to the extreme right – all of whom can and do survive only on doles and hand outs by the rich as none of them have their own independent economy or source of income bring any justice for the poor? Or will they only conspire to deny the poor justice so that the rich continues to pay for their existence as the political agents of the rich whose job is to take care of maintaining the structural status quo of the rich gets richer, poor gets poorer system?
All politicians who don’t help the poor to capture means of production to build an alternative economy of the poor that can challenge the money power of the rich that buys all other types of power, including political power, even if they are talking about armed revolution (who buys the arms for them? who benefits from the sale of arms to them? who benefits from maintaining the arms economy?) can only help the rich to conspire against the poor and can only serve the interests of the rich.
Isn’t it so obvious? But the Stalinists, Leninists, Trotskyites, Maoists and what have you still continue to manage to fool the poor and make them believe that they are working for the poor when all that they do is help the rich to continue becoming richer by making the poor poorer as they leave the economy of the rich untouched. They only talk of politics and how the poor must either vote them to political power so that they, these politicians, can extract more “salary” from the rich for running the system of political hoodwinking of the poor by the rich, or, fight and die for such politicians (the so-called armed revolutionaries) so that they, these “armed revolutionaries” can gain political power and become rich themselves.
In either case the poor remain or will remain exactly where they are – poor – whose labor the rich or those enjoying political power in a “socialist” state once “armed revolution or democratic & unarmed revolution” succeeds can continue to exploit and stay rich. An excellently worked out system of cheating and fooling the poor! Oh, it’s all so obvious, but we still continue to fool ourselves. Some of us poor who have seen through this game must suffer without hope, while for the rest, ignorance is bliss!
Think dear readers, think! Can politicians who never struggle for actual direct collective ownership of means of production by collective households of the poor really get any justice for the poor? Do they really want any change in the system? Or, do they “struggle” only to maintain the system of rich getting richer by making the poor become poorer?
What else can I do but lament and rant in my own loneliness? I have seen the light so I must suffer. If only I too could remain ignorant? How blissful it would have been?
