Apart from the post-marxist, post-modernist or other post-garbage arguments which claim defending socialism as a kind of a sin for today, just as how it is considered that a historical period of the struggle for socialism ended by the 89-91 fall of the Soviet Union, it is an honorable truth that the October Revolution is still and continue to be symbolizing the path of the emancipation for the laborer and oppressed humanity by means of being the major revolutionary root that lightens the new historical period of the socialism struggle. In that sense, while we are celebrating the 100th anniversary of the October revolution today, we continue to live it as a current honor, a living fire shaping the cornerstones of today's question of revolution.

Couple of months before the October, on his April theses, Lenin was leading the direction of the proletarian revolution to follow the bourgeois democratic revolution by emphasizing one core feature of Marxism with the words of Marx and Engels: “Our theory is not a dogma, but a guide to action.” This dynamic understanding of Marxism led Bolsheviks to leave the traditional perspective that they'd carried so far aside and to go beyond from the February towards the glorious October. As it is known, with compare to Europe, the Tsarists Russia with its underdeveloped conditions of capitalism seemed to be insufficient for the socialist revolution, but at the same time, the imperialist war was conditioning extremely sharp contradictions within the country. So, instead of waiting the possibility of revolution in Russia which is binded to the proletarian revolutions to be actualized in Europe before, Lenin and his comrades marched to break the imperialism from this weak link and thus transformed their move into a detonator for those possible revolutions as well as to an eternal root for the emancipation of the laborer humanity.

The great solidarity, determination and sacrifice of the Soviet's laborers under the proletarian rule of the October Revolution showed to the history that, against all limitations of the given conditions together with the ideological and political aggression of capitalism including the strict imperialist siege, continuous wars, sabotages, etc., the laborer humanity can create its own free, equal and honorable life, proving that the bourgeois is just unnecessary. This revolutionary action and the determination for the socialist construction under the worst suitable conditions was inherent to Leninism and his Bolshevik Party. The party didn't have the chance to choose the conditions to create the history, so by holding revolution as a current question of their time, it literally attacked to the given conditions with all efforts in order to create the revolutionary conditions out from those. In that sense, the October, which means to organize an extra-ordinary break from the ordinary flow of history, is the materialized form of this consciousness and spirit of attack that present itself as a fundamental essence of a revolutionary existence.

Just as Marxism, which is not a dead dogma or a completed and stable doctrine but a guide to action, the October Revolution itself, that transformed Marxism into a worldly power, also cannot be a guide or a weapon for today by being stuck on analysis and understandings of that time. In this context, October is not is not a closed receipt or a formula, neither it is a revolutionary temple. As the general structure of the world changes by time, the subjective and objective conditions of the revolution are changing as well and this fact requires every social revolution to seek and create the particular paths of their tine. Keeping this in mind, we should admit that, revolutions of the 21 st century will come out from that kind of a dynamic relation with theory and the passed socialist experiences, but definitely by stepping on the cornerstones of the revolutionary essence of the October Revolution that becomes concrete as: the communist party and socialist revolution, revolutionary dictatorship of the proletariat, planned economy, collective property, soviet democracy, uncompromising struggle to extinguish the classes towards communism and definitely, the immanence spirit of internationalism.

100 years after that glorious step of Bolsheviks, our commitment to the revolutionary essence of the October revolution shines as the fundamental weapon to overcome the hopelessness and discontent that capitalism is re-growing day by day. The material conditions for the success of the laborer humanity in this current era of the imperialist globalization, where the unification of the capital in the hands of few international monopolies extends the rank of the exploited and oppressed masses by the creation of a world market together with the world working class, every country itself stands as the weakest link to be smashed. All we need is an uncompromising determination to the revolutionary spirit of attack that the October revolution proved to the history. Yes we had succeeded and we will succeed again.

Long live the October!

Long live socialism!
