Adolf Hitler considered himself a Socialist, Capitalist, Fascist and Nazi in various measures. The isms taught in political science 101 have become archaic myths which beg questions and provide no guides. Peace, justice, equity and freedom are goals, but antiquated isms are irrelevant. They define no means for precipitating liberation or realizing revolution.
Isms have become archaic myths examined in political science 101 but these ideas beg real questions and have become ignoble distractions from peace, justice, equity and freedom.
Isms are interesting but oligarchy trumps philosophy.

― Malcolm X
“At this crucial time in our lives, when everything is so desperate, when every day is a matter of survival, I don’t think you can help but be involved.”
