“The Marxist doctrine is omnipotent because it is true. It is comprehensive and harmonious, and provides men with an integral world outlook irreconcilable with any form of superstition, reaction, or defence of bourgeois oppression. It is the legitimate successor to the best that man produced in the nineteenth century, as represented by German philosophy, English political economy and French socialism.” MenWorldPhilosophyFormPoliticalEconomyCenturyReactionsSocialismDoctrineOppressionSuperstitionsOutlookDefenceComprehensiveHarmoniousBourgeoisNineteenth CenturyMarxistSuccessorsOmnipotentPolitical EconomyGerman Philosophy Book:Izbrannye Proizvedenii͡a V Trekh Tomakh Source: Izbrannye Proizvedenii͡a V Trekh Tomakh
“Socialism is, among other things, the political habitat of low self-esteem, incompetence, self-loathing, and a willingness to steal - or have stolen for you what you are unable or unwilling to work for.

“The trouble is with socialism, which resembles a form of mental illness more than it does a philosophy. Socialists get bees in their bonnets. And because they chronically lack any critical faculty to examine and evaluate their ideas, and because they are pathologically unwilling to consider the opinions of others, and most of all, because socialism is a mindset that regards the individual and his rights as insignificant, compared to whatever the socialist believes the group needs, terrible, terrible things happen when socialists acquire power.” NeedsBelieveDoeIdeasPhilosophyHappensFormIndividualOpinionRightsTroubleGroupsTerribleRegardIllnessCriticalMindsetThings HappenSocialismMental IllnessAcquireFacultyBeesSocialistInsignificantTerrible ThingsUnwillingEvaluateBonnets Author:L.

“Some liberation theologians maintain that they are not influenced by Marxist philosophy at all. In this case it is necessary to discern whether they say this for tactical reasons, so as not to be compromised politically or whether they are really convinced that Marxism doesn't influence them in any way. I personally think that it is not possible to evade the influence of Marxism, as we cannot commit ourselves to the revolutionary struggle without drawing support from the conclusions of scientific socialism.” ThinkingWayReasonPhilosophyCasesSupportStruggleInfluenceConvincedDrawingSocialismCommitConclusionLiberationRevolutionaryTheologianMarxismMarxistTactical Author:Ernesto Cardenal
“Capitalism works. In the end, socialism imploded on itself. Communism imploded on itself.
