The passage you provided most likely reflects the influence of the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution, which was inspired by the ideals of Lenin. The text advocates for rebellion against human tyranny and suggests that eliminating the ruling class (or "Man") would lead to freedom and prosperity for the working class. This aligns closely with the revolutionary spirit and socialist ideology that characterized the Bolshevik movement during that period.
"Is it not crystal clear, then, comrades, that all the evils of this life of ours spring from the tyranny of human beings? Only get rid of Man, and the produce of our labour would be our own. Almost overnight we could become rich and free. What then must we do? Why, work night and day, body and soul, for the overthrow of the human race! That is my message to you, comrades: Rebellion!"
