“I’m not a capitalist, am I? We’re workers, we are defending our freedom.” You’re wrong, you are fighting because you are obeying your capitalist government; it’s the governments, not the peoples, who are carrying on this war

Anyone who wants to make us reject Marx’s method… must take one of two paths: either he must reject altogether the idea of objective laws… and abandon all attempts at providing a scientific basis for sociology; or he must show… an analysis that will stand up… to Marx’s analysis in Capital.

[The government] also tried, in its fright, to influence the workers by silly talk about the employers’ Christian love for the workers. But the workers only jeered at this talk, and no amount of persecution could check the movement, in which tens and hundreds of thousands of workers were involved.

Capitalists are not inclined to be frank about their incomes. “Commercial secrets” are strictly guarded and it is very difficult for the uninitiated to penetrate the “mysteries” of how riches are piled up. Private property is sacred…Such is the principle of capitalism.

Today, there has “suddenly” sprung up in this country a host of liberal and progressive “Marxophobes”

The domination of finance capital, as of capital in general, cannot be abolished by any kind of reforms in the realm of political democracy, and self-determination belongs wholly and exclusively to this realm.

Our liberals have a strong aversion for the “theory” of the class struggle, and particularly insist on their view that the governments of modern states can stand outside classes or above classes. But what can you do…if the “theory” which is so distasteful to you corresponds exactly to reality?

Yes, we know perfectly well that nothing on earth can shake you out of your vulgar liberal complacency.

The puzzled reader may ask: how could a learned liberal professor have forgotten these elementary axioms familiar to anybody who has read any exposition of the views of socialism?…

the personal qualities of present-day professors are such that we may find among them even exceptionally stupid people

…people who write about statistics often display an astounding lack of understanding of the nature of the figures they are analysing, their authenticity and their suitability for drawing certain conclusions.

All official and liberal science defends wage-slavery, whereas Marxism has declared relentless war on that slavery.

Socialists cannot achieve their great aim without fighting against all oppression of nations

Of course one can use the expression “on the left” in this case only in a very relative sense, to characterise those who are inclined to play at Leftism.

Disunited, the workers are nothing. United, they are everything.

It is difficult to keep calm when reading outrageous speeches like these.

This freedom is just as utterly false, serving to mask capitalist deception, coercion and exploitation, as are the other “freedoms” proclaimed and implemented by the bourgeoisie, such as the “freedom to work” (actually the freedom to starve), and so on.

For hundreds of years, freedom of trade and of exchange has been to millions of people the supreme gospel of economic wisdom, the most deep-rooted habit of hundreds and hundreds of millions of people.

There is a Latin tag cui prodest? meaning “who stands to gain?” When it is not immediately apparent which political or social groups, forces or alignments advocate certain proposals, measures, etc., one should always ask: “Who stands to gain?”

Monopolies, oligarchy, the striving for domination and not for freedom, the exploitation of an increasing number of small or weak nations by a handful of the richest or most powerful nations—all these have given birth to those distinctive characteristics of imperialism

Still relevant, obviously:

If you ever reply to me that you’re scared to call yourself a communist this is what’s happening in my head
