7. Really?
That's the history you want to cite?

I have an idea how to fix this!

Let's form these workers councils in every city...we could call them soviets...

19. I was referring to fed-up serfs in the snow
People with no power who brought down a czar. I could also have gone with people power among the mothers of the desaparacidos or in the Phillipines. The point is that it works and that the R's are trying to swim against the tide of history. It has never worked before when the people are awake, and it won't work now.

Saying that the end of resistance by the workers is communism, a completely discredited system, is ridiculous.

8. If you have to be escort out of the building because
the entire building is packed full of protesters, shouldn't that be a sign that what you just did was against what the people want?
