Greg Leake emails: Hi Luke,
I don’t understand.
This is difficult to comprehend, because obviously Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman are both members of the proletariat.
Even if you allowed the idea that one might be slightly more prosperous than the other, neither would even fit the category of the petit bourgeous.
And of course the president is a member of the bourgeoisie, and there would be no reason for him to see either Travon or Zimmerman as unqualified to be members of the proletariat vanguard.
Naturally, Lenin spelled out quite carefully and conscientiously the government construction that should take place. And Trotsky was very clear in his disagreement with Stalin. Trotsky aggressively pointed out that other countries needed to be part of the socialist revolution in order to support the activities in Soviet Russia.
And with the regrettable open mic errors that communicated certain sentiments to be relayed to Vladamir Putin, we certainly have the security and relief of knowing that the president is heroically doing what he can to advance his idealistic hopes and dreams.
Inasmuch as George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin were both members of the proletariat, the Politburo and the Central committee would understand that there is no moral justification for provocative racial polarization. How on earth can a worker’s paradise be achieved if those of the proletariat, i.e., the working class, are being encouraged to bicker with one other when their support is obviously needed for the class struggle with the bourgeoisie?
Maybe someone can explain this to me, as I am at sea trying to understand how Leninism can be served by division artificially created in the proletariat!
