    It's always funny to find out that old leftist are mostly no different then current ones. Just differing in scale.

      "Those who do not study history are doomed to repeat it"

      I always thought this was a dumb saying, but damn as I see more of the world it just gets truer and truer. It's gotten so I can predict how certain events will play out as they're starting. It's uncanny, it's like being the kid in a Stephen King novel that has this cursed magic power.

      It's really telling that some leftists today think being a snitch is ok if it's for the revolution. Sort of explains why all western ML parties keep cannibalizing themselves.
