I'd suggest it is a different way to express the 1st International rule
"That the emancipation of the working classes must be conquered by the working classes themselves"

or as The International expressed it in song

"No saviour from on high delivers
No faith have we in prince or peer
Our own right hand the chains must shiver
Chains of hatred, greed and fear"
