Wandering the information superhighway, he came upon the last refuge of civilization, PoFo, the only forum on the internet ...
Stalin wrote:The Young Communist League has always marched in the front ranks of our fighters. Let us hope that the Young Communist League will continue to be in the front ranks, bearing aloft and carrying forward the banner of socialism. (Applause.)
Stalin wrote:The first question is that of our industrial policy. That, so to speak, belongs to our home affairs. The second question is that of the Nanking events. That, consequently, is a matter of foreign affairs.
Stalin wrote:Comrades, the basic line which our industry must follow, the basic line which must determine all its subsequent steps, is that of systematically
Stalin wrote:...reducing industrial production costs, that of systematically reducing wholesale prices of manufactured goods. That is the high road our industry must take if it is to develop and grow strong, if it is to give the lead to agriculture, and if it is to strengthen and broaden the foundation of our socialist economy.
Korsch wrote:Bourgeois consciousness necessarily sees itself as apart from the world and independent of it as pure critical philosophy and impartial science, just as the bourgeois State and bourgeois Law appear to be above society. This consciousness must be philosophically fought by the revolutionary materialistic dialectic, which is the philosophy of the working class.

'Philosophy cannot be abolished without being realised'.
Potemkin wrote:Stalin, Gramsci and Althusser.

London, though he doesn't know it, is more interested in Thompson, whom Marx cribbed. In the Iron Heel when Everhard is going over a lot of the stuff he attributes to Marx, it's stuff Marx took from Thompson and later expanded upon. Which, ultimately, I suppose doesn't matter but I think it's interesting.
