This Isn’t an E*otic Game?

My speech was long.

The reactions of the labor theorists in the room were diverse.

Some were furious, while others couldn’t hold back their anger and stormed out of the room.

Most, however, were deeply confused.

Their eyes trembled, and their hands started to lose strength.

Just moments ago, they had been the most passionate voices calling for revolution, but now they were stumbling around like sheep, having lost their purpose after hearing my words.

But still, I did not stop speaking.

"You despise religion more than anyone, but eventually, you’ll become the most religious group of all. On Capital will become your Bible, and the leader of the revolution will become your prophet. In blind hatred and rage toward capitalists, you will pour everything you have into defeating them."

And in the end, they would seize power.

There were too many poor, miserable workers, and the capitalists were, in the grand scheme, few.

The revolution would succeed.

But the real issue came after that.

"In the end, you will succeed. You will seize power. But that power will not be used for the workers. Once the revolution succeeds, there will be no one left to stop you. Your unchecked power will change you, and gradually, you will become as vile as the ones you overthrew."

The ideology that had started to help workers would no longer be about the workers.

It would be used as an excuse for the few revolutionaries in power.

"It will be those who oppose you who will be branded as capitalist dogs and executed. The workers, who fought to overthrow the capitalists, will suffer even more brutal labor. And in the end, you will create a world where everyone is equally poor. But in that world, only the revolutionaries will live comfortably while the rest of the workers are crushed under your rule."

The Great Leap Forward.

Forest destruction and flooding.

People starving to death.
