Socialist Progressives
In reply to the discussion: What does Socialism look like to you? [View all]for last days I've been playing Assassins Creed III which is situated in the American Revolution and the main character is a member of Iroquois Nation trying to protect his tribe. Because it should not be forgotten what kind of men made the revolution and what it meant for Indians.
Also Declaration of Independence is not a bad piece of revolutionary writing, stating the inalienable right of people to dispose tyrannical government. That and other opinions by Jefferson about state and government have earned his fame of "philosophical anarchist", together with David Henry Thoreau.
That document remains to be inspiration for also Occupy Movement General Assemblies, which refuse to make any demands to the Government for the reason that demanding something from the Government would legitimize it. The inherent right of revolution is much wider issue than just state rights vs. federal tyranny.
