piatakov
At the same time, they’re teaching a disdain for experience, for the testimony of the senses and of common sense that is as radical as the immortal sentence by the Bolshevik Pyatakov: “For the party’s sake you can and must at 24 hours’ notice change all your convictions and force yourself to believe that white is black.” 27
Al mismo tiempo enseñan un desdén tan radical de la experiencia, del testimonio de los sentidos y del sentido común, como la frase inmortal del bolchevique Piatakov: «Si el Partido se lo ordena, un auténtico comunista debe ser capaz de ver blanco lo que es negro y negro lo que es blanco.» 27
The Soviet authorities accorded themselves the privilege that Saint Thomas Aquinas denied to God, that is, to make what has happened not have happened, and it’s not to George Orwell but to Lenin’s companion Pyatakov that we owe this extraordinary sentence: “For the party’s sake you can and must at twenty-four hours’ notice change all your convictions and force yourself to believe that white is black.”
El privilegio que Tomás de Aquino negaba a Dios, el de que no haya acontecido lo que ha acontecido, se lo arrogó el poder soviético, y no es a George Orwell, sino a un compañero de Lenin, Piatakov, a quien se debe esta frase extraordinaria: «Si el partido lo exige, un auténtico bolchevique está dispuesto a creer que lo negro es blanco y lo blanco negro.»
