New and old - through a century

Antifa: 'No Trump! No Wall! No USA At All!'

Владимир Маяковский, 1918
"Разворачивайтесь в марше!
Словесной не место кляузе.
Тише, ораторы!
Ваше
слово,
товарищ маузер.
Довольно жить законом,
данным Адамом и Евой.
Клячу историю загоним.
Левой!
Левой!
Левой!"

Vladimir Mayakovskiy, 1918
"About turn! March!
Away with a talk-show.
Silence, you speakers!
Comrade Mauser,
you
have the floor.
Down with the law which for us
Adam and Eve have left.
We'll ruin the jade of the past.
Left!
Left!
Left!

...

Can the eagle ever get blind?
Can they make us swing off the road?
Hold
your proletarian hand
tight on the world's throat!
Deck out the sky with drape!
March boldly ahead, don't be late!
Who's marching out of step?
Left!
Left!
Left"

I hope you remember what's happened after 1918?

"Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it."
