In fact, many Seattle veterans later commented about how refreshing it was to have attended a successful protest that was free of M-L newspaper hawkers. And the old variety of Left protest was absent, save the program of speakers at the labor rally. Instead of a long program of speakers from every fucking endorsing organization, there was no rally, only mass disobedience in the streets.

The parasitic left has been trying to get in front of the wagon ever since.

They are chiefly a pain in the ass. They will never accomplish anything as long as they are so hated on the left.

They should all hang up shop and start studying the autonomist Marxists.

Thanks to whoever made that Harry Cleaver PDF available!

INTERNATIONALISM IN PRACTICE

An American soldier in a hospital explained how he was wounded: He said, "I was told that the way to tell a hostile Vietnamese from a friendly Vietnamese was to shout ‘To hell with Ho Chi Minh!’ If he shoots, he’s unfriendly. So I saw this dude and yelled ‘To hell with Ho Chi Minh!’ and he yelled back, ‘To hell with President Johnson!’ We were shaking hands when a truck hit us."
