Great quote by Irish socialist James Connolly, essentially the difference between socialist republicanism and plain nationalism
“If you remove the English Army tomorrow and hoist the green flag over Dublin Castle., unless you set about the organization of the Socialist Republic your efforts will be in vain. England will still rule you. She would rule you through her capitalists, through her landlords, through her financiers, through the whole array of commercial and individualist institutions she has planted in this country and watered with the tears of our mothers and the blood of our martyrs.
My friend used to always say during school “when you get your first paycheck you’ll stop being a socialist”. Until he started working… he’s now a socialist.
You won, Gorbachev. Enjoy your Pizza Hut, I hope it makes you happy. Dear lord, what a sad little life, Gorbachev. You ruined my Socialist Soviet Republic and the economy of Easter Europe completely so you could have the pizza hut, and I hope now you can spend some money on lessons in grace and decorum. Because you have all the grace of a reversing dump truck without any tyres on. So Gorbachev, take your pizza and get out of my country.
Rest in Piss.
