    During the lifetime of great revolutionaries, the oppressing classes constantly hounded them, received their theories with the most savage malice, the most furious hatred and the most unscrupulous campaigns of lies and slander. After their death, attempts are made to convert them into harmless icons, to canonize them, so to say, and to hallow their names to a certain extent for the “consolation” of the oppressed classes and with the object of duping the latter, while at the same time robbing the revolutionary theory of its substance, blunting its revolutionary edge and vulgarizing it.

      Yeah, I thought you had to request off for weekends weeks or months in advance.

    We all dunk on that guy but the point he was making was correct. You can't think of the Internet like a truck where you pile things into the back, you've gotta think of it more like a pipe network with a certain flow rate and stuff.
