Opinion of Eugene Debs

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Debs is the kind of person its hard not to consider a FF even if you dont agree with his views.

[Oldiesfreak1854]

As I believe Cathcon said in my poll on Vito Marcantonio, communist tool.  HP.

Eugene Debs wasn't a communist.

No, but he was a socialist, which is communism's next-door neighbor.  After all, the only major difference is communism is authoritarian and socialism is democratic.

In the same way that your ideology is fascism's next-door neighbor, sure.

1. Both are broad terms that can overlap in some usages and diverge widely in others.
2. That's a pretty [Inks]ing major difference.

Same, I'm not socialist, and thus don't agree with all his economic and social issues, but his labor activism, anti-war activism and that sort of thing are all commendable and he was well-liked as a person, hence why he got pardoned and had good relations with other politicians and figures, even if they were virulently anti-socialist.

From the crown of my head to the soles of my feet I am Bolshevik, and proud of it.  Debs

Said in 1919, still in the aftermath of the Russian Revolution.  In the 20's, he became a fierce critic of the USSR.
