it's kind of insane to me how people write things like that. marxism was not invented on tumblr during the last 2 years. like oh you know there's this book actually.... and this other book....

[goatsandgangsters]

honestly is there anything William Morris—poet, socialist, and absolute wallpaper legend—can't do

A reminder that Karl Marx was a strong supporter of democracy and freedom!

I am sorry but there's one thing this movie can never take away from me, even though it will try, and it is, that Sybil "Sybbie" Branson is and will always be a butch lesbian

You guys gotta start opening your anons with a link to the post you're mad about, there are way too many people on this website who are mad at me about way too many things for me to keep track of

I know this means nothing to most of you, but there is an infamous fro yo eating, sprinkle dipping right winger with a huge following on tik tok. Well to fight that, we not only have the Freddy Five bears guy, but now we also have a left wing clone of him. I love this rivalry

I gotta be less hard on myself. Annoyingly i know that my best work comes from when i am hard on myself. But i keep stopping myself from doing things i want to due to perfectionism. Annoying.

there is a subset of tumblr liberals that are always making posts like “i hate communism >:( i hope the commies die“ positioning this as some kind of brilliant insightful take only they thought up with their genius brain and they are soso unique and oppressed for. when they are from a former socialist country i can understand (still cringe when they say everyone who is a communist these days is a westerner. cmon we both know you know that’s untrue). but when they and their family are from the west and they act like they’re oppressed for being anticommunist it’s just deeply cringe.

kind of funny whenever (and this happens quite often) someone older than me is like "yeah the world aka US politics went to shit in 2016 it wasn't this ridiculous and bizarre before aaaa it feels different" because whether i Would agree or not is hampered by the fact that i was roughly 11 at the time. like i'll take your word for it boss o7 bc i was a zygote in terms of political awareness. my ass was not paying attention enough before so i have no previous era to compare it to. i was thinking about hex bugs or something that whole time idk

there is literally soooo much socialist and feminist history in the middle east/africa/south asia that you just never hear about in western socialist circles \\: it’s crazy there are so many figures we must learn about right now

Power Corrupts and Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely

I cannot accept your canon that we are to judge Pope and King unlike other men, with a favourable presumption that they did no wrong. If there is any presumption it is the other way against holders of power, increasing as the power increases. Historic responsibility has to make up for the want of legal responsibility. Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority: still more when you superadd the tendency or the certainty of corruption by authority. There is no worse heresy than that the office sanctifies the holder of it. That is the point at which the negation of Catholicism and the negation of Liberalism meet and keep high festival, and the end learns to justify the means. You would hang a man of no position, like Ravaillac; but if what one hears is true, then Elizabeth asked the gaoler to murder Mary, and William III ordered his Scots minister to extirpate a clan. Here are the greater names coupled with the greater crimes. You would spare these criminals, for some mysterious reason. I would hang them, higher than Haman, for reasons of quite obvious justice; still more, still higher, for the sake of historical science.

- John Emerich Edward Dalberg, Lord Acton: Presidents, Kings, Tyrants, & Despots (1887)
