Was curious if there were any quotes that we’d like to share.
It’s pretty hard to find anything from Stalin for example that isn’t blatantly made up to demonize him.

This one resonates with me in particular:
"As revolutionaries, we don’t have the right to say we are tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We know that when the people understand, they cannot help but follow us.”
-Thomas Sankara
Very similar old but gold I love:
-Huey Newton
I live this way as often as I can. I cannot tell you how many times I bit my tongue until my anger settled, or erased a text or a comment and rewrote it nicer or at least more neutral, even to fascists. I meet people where they are, gain some level of trust, and then try to introduce them to new ideas, or I meet them head on but make sure to always respect them and spin it as “you have been lied to by the powers that be” instead of “you are evil and stupid, die please.”
Huey is fucking great, everytime I read something new about him is great
