“Marxism was the social creed and the social cry of those classes who knew by their miseries that the creed of the liberal optimists was s snare and a delusion... Liberalism and Marxism share a common illusion of the "children of light." Neither understands property as a form of power which can be used in either its individual or its social form as an instrument of particular interest against the general interest.” ChildrenWisdomLightFormUsedPoliticsIndividualSocialInterestCommonClassEconomyShareCryParticularIllusionInstrumentsPropertyMiseryLiberalismDelusionCreedsOptimistMarxismSnares Author:Reinhold Niebuhr
“The country's 24 hour political pundit perpetual panic conflictinator did not cause our problems but its existence makes solving them that much harder. The press can hold its magnifying up to our problems bringing them into focus, illuminating issues heretofore unseen or they can use that magnifying glass to light ants on fire and then perhaps host a week of shows on the sudden, unexpected dangerous flaming ant epidemic. If we amplify everything we hear nothing.” IfsCountryUseShowsProblemLightPoliticalPoliticsCausesHoursExistenceIssuesFireFocusWeekDangerousHarderPressesGlassesUnexpectedHostPanicPerpetualUnseenAntsEpidemicsIlluminatingPunditsAmplifyMagnifyingMagnifying Glass Author:Jon Stewart
