I intend to post excerpts from a variety of sources, without comment where I deem more useful. It is all the more productive to put ideas out there and see what comes back with the tide. The core thrust behind this thread of course being for me is to also better understand history and learn from others...either from their misinterpretations or interpretations, the end result being to understand how we got to this impasse as a world at a fork in the road. Other threads take their own views but I welcome contributions from their authors.
I am not here to make friends who agree with me, but to be equip myself in developing the projects I have in mind. I will occasionally get exasperated as we all do, but that does not signify any attempt at censorship. Roar back if you wish, even to take me down a few pegs more. No one is too high that he or she cannot learn:
In bourgeois society, therefore, the past dominates the present; in Communist society, the present dominates the past. In bourgeois society capital is independent and has individuality, while the living person is dependent and has no individuality.
