“Don’t be deceived when they tell you things are better now. Even if there’s no poverty to be seen …
Watch out, for as soon as it pleases them they’ll send you out to protect their gold in wars whose weapons, rapidly developed by servile scientists, will become more and more deadly until they can with a flick of the finger tear a million of you to pieces.” ― Jean-Paul Marat (Peter Weiss 1963)
