Quote Post
The capitalists have always used the term “freedom” to mean freedom for the rich to get richer and for the workers to starve to death. In capitalist usage, freedom of the press means freedom of the rich to to bribe the press, freedom to use their wealth to shape and fabricate so-called public opinion.
