The social revolution of the nineteenth century cannot take its poetry from the past but only from the future. It cannot begin with itself before it has stripped away all superstition about the past. The former revolutions required recollections of past world history in order to smother their own content. The revolution of the nineteenth century must let the dead bury their dead in order to arrive at its own content. There the phrase went beyond the content โ here the content goes beyond the phrase.
Joking here but this is genuinely one of the most important lines Marx ever wrote about revolutionary politics, it might as well have been written about modern activists wrapping themselves in the flags of dead revolutions
