> Why is it these people have no historical knowledge? Rhetorical question. <
Yep. And if you try to remind them about that history, you’ll get the same old answer: This time it will be different.
Lenin’s firings squads were followed by those of Stalin’s, and then by those of Mao’s. But this time it will be different.
But at least the Cuban revolution really was different. Oh, wait...
“To send men to the firing squad, judicial proof is unnecessary. These procedures are an archaic bourgeois detail. This is a revolution! And a revolutionary must become a cold killing machine motivated by pure hate.”
Che Guevara
Hmmm. “And a revolutionary must become a cold killing machine motivated by pure hate.” Could be the mission statement of a certain wing of the demodrone party these days.
