Lenin: The tsar's troops were victorious over the workers in Moscow. This victory has not enfeebled the vanquished, but has only welded them more closely together, deepened their hatred, and brought them closer to the practical tasks of a serious struggle. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Al Lewis: The ruling class is smarter than you, and they're more creative. And if you forget that lesson, you go down the drain. It's not an accident. Never underestimate your opponent. Their fucking machine works twenty-four hours a day, man. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

Malcolm X: The Israeli Zionists are convinced they have successfully camouflaged their new kind of colonialism. Their colonialism appears to be more "benevolent," more "philanthropic," a system with which they rule simply by getting their potential victims to accept their friendly offers of economic "aid," and other tempting gifts, that they dangle in front of the newly-independent African nations, whose economies are experiencing great difficulties. During the 19th century, when the masses here in Africa were largely illiterate it was easy for European imperialists to rule them with "force and fear," but in this present era of enlightenment the African masses are awakening, and it is impossible to hold them in check now with the antiquated methods of the 19th century. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Citation apocryphe qui semble remonter à 2001. Elle a été attribuée à Homer Simpson en France. Cette hypothèse n'est pas bête car elle va dans le sens d'une citation d'Homer: «Marge, I agree with you, in theory. Then again, Communism works, in theory.» Épisode 17, Saison 5 (1994)
Malcolm X: The imperialists always make themselves look good, but it is only because they are competing against economically crippled newly independent countries whose economies are actually crippled by the Zionist-capitalist conspiracy. They can't stand against fair competition, thus they dread Gamal Abdul Nasser's call for African-Arab Unity under Socialism. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Malcolm X: The modern 20th century weapon of neo-imperialism is "dollarism." The Zionists have mastered the science of dollarism: the ability to come posing as a friend and benefactor, bearing gifts and all other forms of economic aid and offers of technical assistance. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Gramsci: The proletarian dictatorship can be made flesh in a type of organization which is specific to the particular activity of producers and not of wage-earners, slaves of capital. The factory council is the first cell of this organization. Since in the council all the branches of labour are represented, proportionally to the contribution each trade and each branch of labour makes to the development of the object which the factory produces for the collective, the institution is of a class, it is social. Its reason for being is in labour, is in industrial production, in a thus permanent state and not only in a salary, in the division of classes, in a thus transitory state and which is precisely to be overcome. Thus the council realizes the unity of the labouring class, gives the masses a cohesion and a form which are of the same nature as the cohesion and form as the mass assumes in the general organization of society. The factory council is the model of the proletarian state. All the problems which are inherent in the organization of the proletarian state are inherent in the organization of the council. In one and the other the concept of citizen decays, and the concept of comrade grows: collaboration to produce well and usefully develops solidarity, multiplies the links of affection and fraternity. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
L. Feuchtwanger: It is manifestly irksome to Stalin to be worshiped as he is, and from time to time he makes fun of it... Of all the men I know who have power, Stalin is the most unpretentious. I spoke frankly to him about the vulgar and excessive cult made of him, and he replied with equal candor... He thinks it is possible even that 'wreckers' may be behind it in an attempt to discredit him. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Alexander Trachtenberg: To the reformist leaders May Day was only an international labor holiday, a day of pageants and games in the parks or outlying country. That the resolution of the Zurich Congress demanded that May Day should be a 'demonstration of the determined will of the before the war. They did everything to discourage and thwart joint international action of the proletariat, and decisions of international congresses which did not conform with their ideas remained mere paper resolutions. Twenty years later the 'socialism' and 'internationalism' of these reformist leaders stood exposed in all their nakedness. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Frank Zappa: Well I think that progress is not possible without deviation. And I think that it's important that people be aware of some of the creative ways in which some of their fellow men are deviating from the norm, because in some instances they might find these deviations inspiring and might suggest further deviations which might cause progress, you never know. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Frank Zappa: We live in a very special time right now. At no other time in history has there been such mass disillusionment in terms of reliance on governing functions. Most people don’t want to come to terms with that. It’s been proven over and over again that the emperor isn’t wearing any clothes, but most people don’t like to look at naked emperors. In the process of turning around to avert their eyes, they saw the discotheques and a few other things and latched onto them. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

Bible: Now there were false prophets among the people, just as there also will be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies and even deny the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction on themselves. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Bible: Such people are false apostles, dishonest workers who are masquerading as apostles of the Messiah.(a) 14 And no wonder, since Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. 15 So it is not surprising if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their doom(b) will match their deeds! wordsmith.social/protestation/…

"What I most admire about your art, is your universality," Einstein said to Chaplin. "You don’t say a word, yet the world understands you!" "True. But your glory is even greater!" he told the physicist. "The whole world admires you, even though they don’t understand a word of what you say." - anonymous wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Lenin: The bourgeoisie sees in Bolshevism only one side insurrection, violence, terror; it endeavours, therefore, to prepare itself especially for resistance and opposition in that direction alone. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Lenin: The leaders of the present-day, so-called, “Social-Democratic” Party of Germany are justly called “social-imperialists,” that is, socialists in words and imperialists in deeds; but as early as 1902, Hobson noted the existence in Britain of “Fabian imperialists” who belonged to the opportunist Fabian Society. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Xi Jinping: Western modernization was fraught with sanguineous crimes such as war, slave trade, colonization, and plunder, which inflicted untold misery on developing countries. Having suffered from aggression, bullying, and humiliation by Western powers, we Chinese are keenly aware of the value of peace and will never follow the beaten path of the West. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Huey Long: Fascism will come to America in the name of anti-fascism'. I'm afraid, based on my own long experience, that fascism will come to America in the name of national security. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Lenin: Whilst you lack the strength to do away with bourgeois parliaments & every other type of reactionary institution, you must work within them because it is there that you will still find workers who are duped by the priests & stultified by the conditions of rural life. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
