Was curious if there were any quotes that we’d like to share.

    Great quote by Irish socialist James Connolly, essentially the difference between socialist republicanism and plain nationalism

    “If you remove the English Army tomorrow and hoist the green flag over Dublin Castle., unless you set about the organization of the Socialist Republic your efforts will be in vain. England will still rule you. She would rule you through her capitalists, through her landlords, through her financiers, through the whole array of commercial and individualist institutions she has planted in this country and watered with the tears of our mothers and the blood of our martyrs.

        Might honestly reference this quote for a good outline when trying to do work on my dad, he’s warm to Pan-Arabism but it’s always been harder to push him any further left than “America bad”
