Από το υπέροχο blog του Tim Gill μια φωτογραφία που μας θυμίζει ότι ο όρος “σοσιαλισμός” κάποτε σήμαινε κάτι. Ο ορισμός γίνεται μέσα από δέκα εντολές. Όχι βαρβαρότητα (ο σοσιαλισμός από κάτω!) και βία στο όνομα μιας κοινωνίας που δεν συμμετέχει τελικά.

- Love your schoolfellows, they will become your fellow workers and companions in life.
- Love learning, which is the food of the mind; be as grateful to your teacher as to your parents.
- Make every day holy by good and useful deeds and kindly actions.
- Honour good people, be courteous and respect all, bow down to none.
- Do not hate or offend anyone. Do not seek revenge, but stand up for your rights and resist tyranny.
- Be not cowardly, protect the feeble and love justice.
- Remember that all good things of the earth are the result of labour. Whoever enjoys them without working for them is stealing the bread of the worker.
- Observe and think in order to discover the truth. Do not believe what is contrary to reason and never deceive yourself or others.
- Do not think that he who loves his own country must hate and despise other nations, or wish for war, which is a remnant of barbarism.
- Help to bring about the day when all nations shall live fraternally together in peace and prosperity.

Στην εποχή των social media ίσως προκύψει ένα νέο είδος σοσιαλισμού ή να κολλήσουμε τέτοιες παλιές, σωστές αρχές σε κάτι καινούργιο.
