Do u think this is an Encyclopedia's sentence? "term has strong connotations with communism."......? [[User:Hugjan]
Some try to impart information - others ideology. Quoting Lenin here is like quoting Sheridan's The only good Indians I ever saw were dead. in an article on Native Americans. AlanE 21:28, 2 December 2014 (EST)
- I am about to revert User:Northwest's reversion of my changes to this article (and to the article Middle class where I can't create a talk page because of the childish reluctance of CP to use the letters "ass" in a title.)
- Let's get Lenin out of the way first. Lenin never said/wrote the words attributed to him. (See http://blog.skepticallibertarian.com/2013/04/15/fake-quote-files-v-i-lenin-on-inflation-and-taxation/ ) Even if he had been the source, I still would have deleted it for the reason I gave in Dec. 2014 (above). (And even Sheridan is usually misquoted.)
- Most of the other reversions were to do with links to nowhere, bad grammar (Bradshaw's), and TAR's habit of shoe-horning as much of his ideology as possible into the "see also" column. E.g. there is a world of difference between the sometimes fabricated definitions of the "classes" in Western society and the Hindu caste system.
re: Lenin quote in Bourgeoisie article
Northwest,
re: Bourgeoisie article
AlanE is acting in good faith about the Lenin quote: http://www.azcentral.com/story/claythompson/2014/10/13/lenin-ronald-reagan-quotes/17226727/
If you want to discuss the matter of the historicity of the quote, here is a useful resource: 7 habits of highly effective historians
