Translated from Spanish

"Fascism is the iron hoop that holds together the rotting barrel of capitalism." An antifascist cartoon from 1963 depicts fascism as a rotten barrel, where an imperialist soldier uses fascism, the metal hoop, to prevent the collapse of capital. Fascism is the iron fist of capital, the shock troops that the capitalist uses to defend their plunder against the workers.

Translated from Spanish

"Capitalism always seeks its salvation in fascism to escalate its plunder against the workers and increase its profits. Fascism is nothing more than the terrorist organization that the capitalist uses to settle scores against the working class." Georgi Dimitrov, secretary
