From “Michael Parenti on the Cuban Revolution”:
And those who demand instant perfection the day after the revolution, they go up and say “Are there civil liberties for the fascists?
Are they gonna be allowed their newspapers and their radio programs, are they gonna be able to keep all their farms?"
The passion that some of our liberals feel, the day after the revolution, the passion and concern they feel for the fascists, the civil rights and civil liberties of those fascists who are dumping and destroying and murdering people before. Now the revolution has gotta be perfect, it’s gotta be flawless.
Class struggle will never cease until we have a world socialist republic, until no capitalist can threaten socialism anymore; until then, the suppression of reaction, the necessity to oppress the oppressors remains a fact…
