Below is a fictional conversation between Emma Goldman and John Reed (From the movie Reds)?

I don't know about the history and politics but as a writer, that "the system doesn't work" routine is beaten to death in this dialogue and really starts to irritate me before even half way through. This dialogue reads like it's written by a typical US bonehead with an axe to grind. Any revolutionary can legitimately criticize the actions of the revolution but I really doubt any sincere revolutionary would ever say, "the system doesn't work". If this character is going to keep saying that, it's probably a good idea to hustle his disloyal @ss across the border ASAP before word gets around too much.
