Use an alt (like this one) if you’re going to say anything that would get you put on a list.

    Seriously, use an alt if you're going to get spicy. It's a good convo to have. I am not telling anyone to do adventurism.

    Armed revolution must be organized and have the support of the proletariat. If you move too far ahead of the people, they will turn on you and retreat to the devil they know.

    John Brown was right at the cusp of that in his own time. He and the other revolutionaries who fought alongside him effectively set off the civil war, so I'd say he stuck the landing despite being martyred.
