If tomorrow, Morocco were to declare war on France, India on England, Persia or China on Russia, and so forth, those would be ‘just,’ ‘defensive’ wars, irrespective of who attacked first; and every socialist would sympathize with the victory of the oppressed, dependent, unequal states against the oppressing, slave-owning, predatory ‘Great’ Powers.
Socialists of the oppressor countries should recognize and champion the oppressed nation’s right to self-determination. The socialist of a ruling country who does not stand for that right is a chauvinist.

Hi there, Tumblr. I'm Andy.
I'm a Leninist with some decent Trotskyist tendencies (though I may be mixing that up with the gravitational force of his hair) and I love me some revolutionary history.
I ship historical figures. You've been warned.
Also, you know who's way better than me and perfect in every way?
