i'm right, you're wrong. why are you still talking?

"Comrades! The insurrection of five kulak districts should be pitilessly suppressed. The interests of the whole revolution require this because 'the last decisive battle' with the kulaks is now under way everywhere. An example must be demonstrated. • 1. Hang (and make sure that the hanging takes place in full view of the people) no fewer than one hundred known landlords, rich men, bloodsuckers. • 2. Publish their names. • 3. Seize all their grain from them. • 4. Designate hostages in accordance with yesterday's telegram. • Do it in such a fashion that for hundreds of versts around the people might see, tremble, know, shout: "they are strangling, and will strangle to death, the bloodsucking kulaks". Telegraph receipt and implementation. Yours, Lenin. Find some truly hard people"________________________________________________________ this is what happens when teleological bureaucratization becomes the standard for government. lenin took marx's dictum "from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs" ( and i notice just now that this doesn't say anything about individual desire...only need...no wonder capital hates marx so...he denies it it's greatest manipulative tool ) and rewrote it as "from each according to our needs, to each according to how necessary they are to our ends." ( i neglected to add when i originally wrote this that this dictum is true of every hegemonic culture...you, as an individual, have value in their eyes only in so far as you serve their ends...if you aren't a minion you'd better be self-validating ) and in so doing lenin beget stalin. they knew what history's final end was...anything they did to reach it was acceptable.
