Rosa wasn’t a “Democratic Socialist” she was a Marxist and communist. Sick of these people trying to glom onto our achievements and thinkers as their own
The “Democratic Socialists” of her day killed her and shoved her from the bridge. Now they puppet her corpse in a crude mockery
If they die before they achieve lasting power, they get co-opted. If they hold power for any length of time, they get slandered.
I'd rather have decades of people misremember me as a bastard than have them parading around my corpse putting words I never said in my mouth in service of preserving liberalism.
