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.

Shatner is kind of an asshole, so this is actually funny.

John Brown would have gotten along well with George Jackson, who believed that the proletariat were to be found in this nation’s prisons.

George is the reason that Marxist literature is banned in most prisons. It’s banned because he lead an armed insurrection and killed prison guards.

I’ll go first: He would still be fighting for the abolition of slavery in America.

All the power on earth and you’re picketing instead of exploding oil executives with your laser vision…

Good. The truck drivers should also be getting paid that much. Don’t tear them down, take goddamn notes.
