The Soviets believe that the Poles are completely mad — as was Solzhenitsyn a few years ago. But there are not enough planes to deport all of them to the West, as part of the friendly export of Soviet dissenters and as a nice example of how the Soviet leadership understands detente and the Helsinki agreements. The Poles must be mad, because in a “classless” society, they are struggling to get rid of a ruling class, which ideologically does not exist. How can the Polish working class, with the support of the peasants, threaten their own liberation through the Communist Party's apparatchiki and exchange salvation in history for meager meat rationing on the level of Hitler's Poland, while dreaming about capitalist slavery without rationing and about further loans from Western banks
