German Workers' Party
My Political Awakening
Dear Colleagues,
It is a workmate who is speaking to you -- one who still stands at the lathe.
What he has to say to you might seem rather strange and surprising, since it sou
nds very different to what you are accustomed to hear. I am a socialist like you
rselves, and want manual workers to gain equality with other creative groups, as
well as the annihilation of layabouts and drones, and the confiscation of profi
ts earned without work or effort.
I still hope for a true and just form of socialism, the salvation of the working
masses, and the freeing of creative mankind from the chains of exploitative cap
italism.
But I am convinced that we are not on the right path to reach this goal.
Many of our leaders are indeed honest men, and want the best for the workers. Bu
t there are also a number who are in the service of a foreign power.
They have used the workers' movement as an instrument for certain special intere
sts. They have used the workers' organisations as a bodyguard for unproductive s
tock exchange and loan capitalism. As a result of my investigations, I am convin
ced:
That there is a secret work conspiracy which, while speaking much about humanity
and tolerance, in reality wants only to harness the people to a new yoke;
That a number of workers' leaders, being big capitalists, belong to this group;
That 300 big bankers, financiers and press barons, who are interconnected across
the world, are the real dictators; they belong almost exclusively to the "chose
n people"; they are all members of this same secret conspiracy, which organises
world politics, namely, the international Lodge Of Freemasons; their aim is
THE DICTATORSHIP OF MONEY OVER WORK
These bank and stock exchange dictators do nothing openly, for they have their a
gents in the workers' movement, and they pay them well. They turn the people's r
esentment, from against themselves, onto the small property owners, the factory
owners, and the farmers, who with all their money could hardly pay the interest
owing to the big bankers. The House Of Rothschild alone owns more capital than a
ll of German heavy industry together.
When will we finally see through the false friends of our movement? The Jewish b
ig capitalist always plays our friend and dogooder; but he only does it to make
us into his slaves. The trusting worker is going to help him to set up the world
dictatorship of Jewry. Because that is their goal, as it states in the Bible: A
ll the peoples will serve you, all the wealth of the world will belong to you. I

n the Talmud it says: A time is coming when every Jew will have 2800 slaves.
Comrades, do you want to be Jewish slaves?
An end to false pride! We workers always give it out that we have created all hu
man culture with our bare hands. But is that right? What about teachers, invento
rs, artists, researchers and technicians?
Are the middle classes, the bourgeoisie, and the farmers not productive? And do
they not also suffer under the dictatorship of big capital, just like us? Would
it not make more sense to offer them our hand and together turn on our common en
emy? It is the particular trick of the capitalist exploiters that they are able
to play the workers and the bourgeoisie off one against the other, and thereby k
eep them powerless.
Shake off your Jewish leaders, and those in the pay of Judas! And one final poin
t: Do not expect anything from Bolshevism. It does not bring the worker freedom.
In Russia the eight hour day has been abolished. There are no more workers' cou
ncils. All cower under the dictatorship of a hundred government commissars, who
are nine tenths Jewish.
Bolshevism is a Jewish swindle.
