Is the following an unfaithful translation?
(a) there is a Berlin Wall between both "sentiments"
(b) class sentiments are worthy of support, and nationalist
sentiments are unworthy of support.
Consequently, movements which are based on "nationalist sentiments"
are reactionary.
As a corollary, people in the Third World, who have this stubborn
tendency to be nationalists, are reactionary.
Final conclusion: let us try to explain people out of their mistake.
In the end, the result of all this is either deserved and navel-
gazing loneliness for the Left, or tremendous defeats (such as in
Bolivia, 1972) for the masses.
Anton, I am seriously afraid that you do not have the slightest idea
of what does the word "dialectic" mean. Not joking.
