Jordan Maxwell: Nothing in this world operates the way you think it does. Banks do not loan money, governments are not empowered to protect you, the police department is not there to serve you, institutions of higher learning, colleges and educational institutes, are not there to educate you. The entire superstructure of civilization in the Western world is a combination of brilliantly put together and planned, well-planned, schemes to direct the minds of the people in such a way as to serve their masters. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3030
Lenin: Fulfilling the task with which it has been charged by the capitalists of all countries, German militarism wants to strangle the Russian and Ukrainian workers and peasants, to return the land to the landowners, the mills and factories to the bankers, and power to the monarchy. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3032
Stalin: The workers of the Soviet Union are merely carrying out their duty in giving help within their power to the revolutionary masses of Spain. They are aware that the liberation of Spain from the yoke of fascist reactionaries is not a private affair of the Spanish people but the common cause of the whole of advanced and progressive mankind. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3034
Lê Duẩn: We are completely confident that the invincible banner of Marxism-Leninism will certainly take the revolutionary cause of the world’s people and of Việt Nam to splendid successes. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3040
Eugene V. Debs: The Republican and Democratic parties, or, to be more exact, the Republican-Democratic party, represent the capitalist class in the class struggle. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3041
Karl Marx: The moderation of the Commune during the two months of undisputed sway is equalled only by the heroism of its defence. What does that prove? Why, that for months the Commune carefully hid, under a mask of moderation and humanity, the bloodthirstiness of its fiendish instincts to be let loose in the hour of its agony! https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3042
Karl Marx: The working men’s Paris, in the act of its heroic self-holocaust, involved in its flames buildings and monuments. While tearing to pieces the living body of the proletariat, its rulers must no longer expect to return triumphantly into the intact architecture of their abodes. The government of Versailles cries, “Incendiarism!” and whispers this cue to all its agents, down to the remotest hamlet, to hunt up its enemies everywhere as suspect of professional incendiarism. The bourgeoisie of the whole world, which looks complacently upon the wholesale massacre after the battle, is convulsed by horror at the desecration of brick and mortar! https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3043
Lenin: The bourgeoisie needs lackeys whom a section of the working class could trust, and who would paint in fine colors, embellish the bourgeoisie with talk about the possibility of the reformist path, who would throw dust in the eyes of the people by this talk, who would divert the people from revolution by depicting in glowing colors the charms and the possibilities of the reformist path. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3044
Alain Badiou: Love and politics are the two great figures of social engagement. Politics is enthusiasm with a collective; with love, two people. So love is the minimal form of communism. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3046
Giacomo Matteotti: When the bourgeois class speaks of invasions and threats of the fatherland we cry down your homeland because history proves nothing easier than the fiction of assaults when you are assailants, of invaders when you want to invade and every army is an organ that necessarily requires the function of destroying attacking to attack. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3051
Lenin: Whoever expects a “pure” social revolution will never live to see it. Such a person pays lip-service to revolution without understanding what revolution is. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3053
Maxim Gorky: To speak the truth is the most difficult of all arts, for in its "pure" form, not connected with the interests of individuals, groups, classes, or nations, truth is almost completely unsuitable for use by the Philistine and is unacceptable to him. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3055
Maxim Gorky: The intelligentsia ...was kept busy embroidering white stitches on the philosophical and ecclesiastical vestments of the bourgeoisie - that old and filthy fabric besmeared with the blood of toiling masses. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3058
Maxim Gorky: Intellectual force is qualitatively the first and foremost productive force, and concern for its rapid growth should be the ardent concern of all classes. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3059
Xi Jinping: Marxism has provided a strong theoretical weapon for the Chinese revolution, construction and reform, enabling China, an ancient country in the east, to create an unprecedented development miracle in the history of mankind. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote3060
