Freedom without socialism is privilege, injustice - socialism without freedom is slavery, brutality - bakunin

liberalism without socialism is barbarism; socialism without liberalism is slavery

and, it's important that the left remembers this constantly, or it will lose over and over and over.

going out there and railing against individual rights isn't going to get you anywhere; nobody wants that, and it misunderstands the theory, anyways.

if you go carrying pictures of chairman mao, you ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow - john lennon
