Rampage Across Athens
Yea, and what good did the LA riot, or the Watts riot, or the Newark riot or
the Detroit riot do ? What good did all the guillotining in the French Rev
do ? They accomplished nothing. What a fool that John Brown was ? He had no
chance of winning. The Paris Commune was doomed to failure, as Marx noted.
One must confine one's activistism to electoral politics and peaceful
demonstration, less we offend people's sensibilities.
As Lenin said, the masses are only capable of spontaneous action without
PEN-L cooler heads injecting revolutionary discipline from the outside.
