Well, the thing is, you can't imitate a hen laying an egg properly if your heart's bleeding for the martyred proletariat.

Very characteristic are the comments made on strikes by Severyanin, a liberal, which were welcomed by Russkiye Vedomosti and sympathetically reprinted by Rech:
That is how the liberal reasons! And this piece of infinite vulgarity, meanness, and nastiness is sympathetically accepted by the “best” liberal papers, which claim to be democratic!
Opportunism and social-chauvinism have the same economic basis: the interests of a tiny stratum of privileged workers and of the petty bourgeoisie who are defending their privileged position,
... their “right” to crumbs of the profits “their” national bourgeoisie obtain from robbing other nations, from the advantages of their position as the ruling nation, etc.
Imperialism is the epoch of the constantly increasing oppression of the nations of the world by a handful of “great” powers and,
“No nation can be free if it oppresses other nations” (Marx and Engels). A proletariat that tolerates the slightest violence by “its” nation against other nations cannot be a socialist proletariat.
