My distro seems to package a fortune-mod-anarchism , what about we as a community join together and create a fortune-mod-communism ?

Would love to have Marx quotes on my terminal (not ironically)

    I did a fortune file of Quotations from Chairman Mao Zedong a while ago: https://pastebin.com/raw/CgfcBkaj

    A comrade I sent it to said the format doesn’t work for them and they had to fix it. It worked fine for me, but if you also have a problem, here’s their version: https://pastebin.com/raw/riNASSd5

    I created it by using a script to process this website: https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/mao/works/red-book/. From my side, you’re more than welcome to use it whereever, but IDK what kind of copyrights the website has, which is something to consider if you plan to include it in an official repository.

    I’d love to see a fortune-mod-communism, but unfortunately, I don’t know where to find quotes of Marx, Lenin, Stalin or any other communists, AFAIK they don’t have a convenient quote collection like Mao, so we would have to do the quotes by hand probably?

    (not unironically)

    Did you meant to say “unironically” or “not ironically”? Because “not unironically”, by double negative, turns back into “ironically”.

      Yeah I meant (not ironically), thanks for the heads up.

      Maybe “wikiquote” is a good place to easily get the quotes from the others socialist leaders .

      Thanks for your chairman mao file going to use that !
