The discovery of the natural biological work democracy in international human intercourse is the answer to fascism. This will be no less true even if not one of the living sex-economists, orgone biophysicists or work democrats should live to see its general functioning and its victory over the irrationalism in social life.” IfsShouldYearsHumansPastThreeSocialSexNaturalAnswersDemocracyVictoryMassHundredDiscoveryDemocratInternationalObviousBackgroundsFascismEconomistIntercourseFascistsSocial LifeCorrespondingPestilence Author:Wilhelm Reich
“Our faith in democracy, personal freedoms and human 'rights', and the other comforting prescriptions of the humanist liberal credo stem from the supremacy of maritime over territorial power. Pragmatists may deplore this as crude determinism, as another vain attempt to construct a general theory of history.
