Who You Are


"If you ask a modern individual who they are, they will usually not tell you about their religion, hobbies, or the clubs to which they belong. They will first tell you where they work and their occupation. Work is the domain from which one gets esteem in the modern world."

Lester Thurow

El codiciado petróleo de los venezolanos


"¿De dónde sacan ustedes que pueden dar ultimátums a un pueblo soberano? Nadie nos va a dar a nosotros plazos, ni nos van a decir si se hacen elecciones o no en Venezuela.

¿Por qué no hace elecciones el presidente Pedro Sánchez?, ¿quién eligió a Pedro Sánchez?. Hagan elecciones en el Reino Unido (Gran Bretaña e Irlanda del Norte). ¿Por qué el presidente Macron, en lugar de dedicarse a las protestas permanentes de los chalecos amarillos del pueblo trabajador francés, se dedica a agredir a Venezuela? [...] respeten, cumplan con la Carta de las Naciones Unidas; respeten la autodeterminación de los pueblos. 

Estados Unidos no está detrás del golpe de estado, está delante, está a la vanguardia. Da y dicta las órdenes, no solo a la oposición venezolana sino también a los estados satélites de Estados Unidos en la región.

¿Dónde está la legalidad de la autoproclamación de un señor que no fue electo por nadie como presidente ni juramentado ante ninguna institución? No permitiremos que ningún gobierno ni ningún país viole nuestra soberanía y le de un pretexto a Donald Trump para comenzar una guerra."

Jorge Arreaza, canciller de Venezuela ante el Consejo de Seguridad de la ONU

L'hypocrisie de Macron


«Alors que Nicolas Maduro a rejeté un ultimatum de plusieurs Etats européens, dont la France, lui enjoignant de convoquer des élections, Jean-Luc Mélenchon apporte son soutien au président vénézuélien. "Moi, j’espère qu’il tienne. Et je trouve extraordinaire que le président français, qui ne veut pas dissoudre dans son pays alors qu’il a une manifestation toutes les semaines et qu’il a déjà mutilé 13 personnes, veuille une dissolution chez son voisin (sic) vénézuélien", a déclaré le député insoumis de Marseille lors de l'émission "Dimanche en politique" sur France 3.»

The Universal God


"Money is the jealous god of Israel, in face of which no other god may exist. Money degrades all the gods of man — and turns them into commodities. Money is the universal self-established value of all things. It has, therefore, robbed the whole world — both the world of men and nature — of its specific value. Money is the estranged essence of man's work and man's existence, and this alien essence dominates him, and he worships it."

Karl Marx (in On the Jewish Question, 1846)

Materialism


"Political, religious and legal institutions as well as the ideas, the images, the ideologies by means of which men understand the world in which they live, their place within it, and themselves — all these are reflections of the economic basis of society."

C. Wright Mills (The Marxists, 1962)

Stay Vigilant

painted with our friend EL ST

"It is my opinion that art is an alternative act of speech and an important ingredient of the practice of democracy. Active and critical art helps democracy to preserve its life."

Enchanted Names


"In the once upon a time days of the First Age of Magic, the prudent sorcerer regarded his own true name as his most valued possession but also the greatest threat to his continued good health, for — the stories go — once an enemy, even a weak unskilled enemy, learned the sorcerer’s true name, then routine and widely known spells could destroy or enslave even the most powerful. As times passed, and we graduated to the Age of Reason and thence to the first and second industrial revolutions, such notions were discredited. Now it seems that the Wheel has turned full circle (even if there never really was a First Age) and we are back to worrying about true names again."

Vernor Vinge (in True Names)

Manipuler le paysage


"Sticker art has always been subversive. Whether you’re putting them on your wall and messing up mom’s favorite wallpaper or slapping them on public buildings to express a political idea, they manipulate the landscape around them."
