Stalin: In the United States of America, in Britain, as also in France, there are aggressive forces thirsting for a new war. They need war to obtain super-profits, to plunder other countries. They are billionaires and millionaires who regard war as a lucrative item yielding colossal profits. They, these aggressive forces, hold reactionary governments in their hands and direct them. But they are at the same time afraid of their peoples, who do not want a new war and stand for the preservation of peace. Therefore they try to use reactionary governments in order to entangle their peoples with lies, to deceive them and to portray the new war as defensive and the peaceful policy of the peace-loving countries as aggressive. They are trying to deceive their peoples in order to impose their aggressive plans on them and to draw them into a new war... Peace will be preserved and consolidated if the peoples take the cause of peace into their own hands and defend it to the end. War may become inevitable if the warmongers succeed in entangling the masses of the people in lies, in deceiving them and drawing them into a new world war. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote6353
Fidel Castro: In the US, which talks so much about multiparty systems, there are two parties so exactly alike in methods, objectives and purposes, that in practice they have come to create the most complete one-party system in the world. https://wordsmith.social/protestation/quotes#quote6354
Sorry for the downtime
Housing situation has been a pain, still on the temporary server environment and been hitting major resources bottlenecks.
I'm hoping to get a place sooner, but I've hit some roadblocks that very likely will push it drastically further out... in which case I'll need to spend more money on this environment to return things to stable.
Reminder that I'm covering this entirely out of my own pocket and these constraints are because I'm between homes and can't use my own much cheaper hardware. If you appreciate this instance I would very much appreciate a donation.
