The revolution is a dictatorship of the exploited against the exploiters.
They talk about the failure of socialism but where is the success of capitalism in Africa, Asia and Latin America?
I began revolution with 82 men. If I had to do it again, I do it with 10 or 15 and absolute faith. It does not matter how small you are if you have faith and plan of action.
I find capitalism repugnant. It is filthy, it is gross, it is alienating... because it causes war, hypocrisy and competition.
A revolution is a struggle to the death between the future and the past.
