  • You say it’s the goal of the proletariat to protect the revolution, but why would they? Each proletariat would benefit from the revolution’s failure- they could live better lives as the bourgeois. You talk about the proletariat like they are some monolithic entity, with a single mind and goal. You talk big about helping the individual, but cannot see beyond their class. The proletariat is a person, with needs, desires and opinions. What father would hold the abstract ideals of the “revolution” over the life of his sick daughter? Any father I know would do anything for the safety of his children, even hoard life-saving medicine from others.















  • This always cracks me up, because it’s a perfect example of a snake eating it’s own tail. “Based” was originally just a shortened way of saying “based in reality” or “based in fact”, but new people didn’t get the original context, so it just became it’s own word. Then, the uninitiated started making the “Based? Based on what?” joke, completely oblivious of the original meaning.
