Liberty- I think this is the most important of them all because the people need to feel like their voice is being heard and that they can say what they want to without being shot 2.Justice- Having justice means that we are safe from dangers when bad people go into jail and its important that people get what they want 3.Equality- equality is a big part and something that everyone deserves, but in the end even in the US equality is not fully there and although it is getting there I do not feel like a country will completely fall apart without it.

**<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 16px;">Quotations from Mao Zedong on War and Revolution **

<span style="background-color: #cde5d5; color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 16px;">A revolution is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, or doing embroidery; it cannot be so refined, so leisurely and gentle, so temperate, kind, courteous, restrained and magnanimous. A revolution is an insurrection, an act of violence by which one class overthrows another. He means that a revolution is not something that is simple or something that is kind or something that is calm. A revolution is messy and it is violent and it is when people want their thoughts to be heard. It is when a group of people goes against another. fighting until you get what you want no peaceful revolution <span style="background-color: #cde5d5; color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 16px;">The revolutionary war is a war of the masses; it can be waged only by mobilizing the masses and relying on them.

This means that a revolutionary war is based off of the people that join it. That the greater amount of people that feel like they need to be apart of a revolution to get there voices heard the bigger the revolution. you need to be able to organize the people in order to get things done.You need people behind you <span style="background-color: #cde5d5; color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 16px;">War is the highest form of struggle for resolving contradictions, when they have developed to a certain stage, between classes, nations, states, or political groups, and it has existed ever since the emergence of private property and of classes. War has been around for a long time and it happens every time a class, nation, political group, or citizens are not happy and want a change and they are not getting it. Last resort when people are not happy no equality <span style="background-color: #cde5d5; color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 16px;">Every Communist must grasp the truth, "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun." <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">They have to use violence to get people to follow their views <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">He defines a revolution as something that is not peaceful. It is something that includes violence and where you fight until you get what you want or achieve equality. It is when a big group of people get together with a common goal in order to obtain what they need caused from inequality uses violence <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I do agree with Mao when is comes to revolutions because "a revolution is not a dinner party". It is violent and messy and something that people believe that they needed in order to obtain what they want which is normally equality. You need a large amount of people to be successful which is clearly stated in his second quote. I especially agree when it comes to his first, second, and third quotes. it a revolution is a serious commitment don't agree with last quote because you shouldn't need violence for a government.
