    I absolutely love Kropotkin, forever. Sometimes it’s so hard to believe it’s been over a century and so very little has changed. I didn’t even hear about his existence until I hit my 20’s. He goes completely unmentioned in the American educational system, even when reviewing the Russian revolutionary history (along with Trotsky, I might add). He was a truly advanced thinker, but still so… understandable. He’s definitely obfuscated from our contemporary culture and that’s terribly shameful. He’s a very good example of capitalist oppressors denying the people their right to mentally evolve. Thanks for the quote.
