Nice to see this quite wrongly understood quote from Rosa Luxemburg here. Her quote was a hand written notation in the margins of a text and scholars, given the context, come to the conclusion that these words were sarcastically used by her.
On other occasions she clearly spoke against democracy or freedoms for people having other ideologies than herself.
I personally had to learn not to use this quote anymore after discovering the background years ago in a documentary.

- sdoering 4y agoI still like the quote, if we take the author out of the picture. The meaning behind the words and the meaning nowadays ascribed to it is absolutely positive imho.
