San Cristóbal Journal: A Masked Marxist on the Stump

Date: January 6, 2006

Author: James C. McKinley Jr.

QUOTE: ...a six-month national tour led by the man known as Subcommander Marcos has all the earmarks of a run-of-the-mill campaign for political office: slogans, chants, partisan songs, rallies large and small....Marcos, a captivating speaker who now calls himself Delegate Zero, even has a stump speech of sorts, in which he blames "savage capitalism" and the sins of the rich for everything from gay-baiting to racism to domestic violence.
