Wonderland

Lyrics

The poisoned belief of iniquitous regimes Methodologically disappear In a realistic dream And our historic necessity comes clear Vile expressions and vile oppressions Neither multiply or hold sway Wonderland will be built when abomination is swept away!

The programmatic supersession of so-called inane ? Is projected in Wonderland where they're projected to possess day from night Such poor theories are disavowed And projectivity is allowed Wonderland will be built when it is demonstrated how!

Retrospectives

Mayo Thompson, 1980

Wonderland, was, you know, a utopia... I subsequently came to think the Wonderland is built when it's demonstrated how. Not will be, but is. The world is better place when we see that it's a better place. Not when we hear the schemes that people have to make it a better place. Idealism is useless to us, I think. I may sit around and dream of world where — that's a better place — where vile expression and vile oppression neither multiply nor hold sway. But the only way we're ever going to get there is to do it... is to recognize that we need to organize for that.
