Мы любим самокритику (С)

Мне тут надо было процитировать что-то про "метод салями", и я зашел на страницу википедии, посвященную оному. И надо же, какая прелесть предстала перед моими глазами:

 

The term salami tactics was coined in the late 1940s by the orthodox communist leader Mátyás Rákosi to describe the actions of the Hungarian Communist Party in its ultimately successful drive for complete power in Hungary. Rákosi claimed he destroyed the non-Communist parties by "cutting them off like slices of salami." By portraying his opponents as fascists (or at the very least fascist sympathizers), he was able to get the opposition to slice off its right wing, then its centrists, then the more courageous left wingers, until only those "Fellow travellers" willing to collaborate with the Communists remained in power.

 

Ну просто слово в слово.

To remove him from the Hungarian political scene, the Soviet Politburo forced Rákosi to move to the Soviet Union in 1956, with the official story being that he was "seeking medical attention." He spent the rest of his life in the Kirgiz Soviet Socialist Republic. Shortly before his death, Rákosi was in 1970 finally granted permission to return to Hungary if he promised not to engage in any political activities. He refused the deal and remained in the USSR where he died in Gorky in 1971.

Увы, те, кому бы это было хорошо узнать, даже прочтя, не поймут иронии.
