on the usual excuse of radical socialists:
“That doesn’t matter; that wasn’t real Marxism.”
That’s what the bloody Marxists always say.… It’s like, “Oh, how many millions of people have to die before you’re convinced that it’s real Marxism?”
And I know what they mean by that, too. They mean,
“If I was the Marxist dictator, things woulda gone a lot better.”
Well, it’s like … “Think again, Sunshine.… if you’re the sort of person who thinks thatif you were [in] control things would have gone a lot better, then you are the sort of person who should never be in control.”
