CPUSA Labor Secretary on Arkansas Talk Radio

Quote :

A revolution is a revolution weather it be left or right. dont down play what I say just because what I said wasnt pro-Socialist.

He wasn't downplaying it he was just telling you not to think that how the Bourgeois revolution happened is necessarily the way the Proletarian revolution will happen.

eh, I dont know british history so I don't know. I am just trying to say to him that a bloody revolt usually ends up in some dick head military General becoming Dictator.

Those revolutions are usually lead by a vanguard. Ex: USSR, Cuba. A true socialist revolution will be carried out by the workers themselves.

haha. you have this ability to completely disregard what i say, and instead put into my mouth what you think it really meant. There is a big difference in strategy between a bourgeois revolution and a proletarian one. The two are hardly similar enough to be compared.
