   • 1926, Madhava Rao, The Other Phase of the Medal. A Critical Rejoinder to The Swarajists’ Propaganda‎^[1], Madras: The Justice Printing Press, Appendix B (2) by M. Annapurniah, page 88:

     It is really amusing to see the stop-gap leader of the only “organised political party”, in his intoxication of the newly acquired power, fondly imagining that every paper that exposes his whims and vagaries, his double dealing and duplicity, is antinational and probureaucratic and hence needs to be crushed.

   • 1979, Leninist Trotskyist Tendency, Arpo Dani (Spain), Strawson (Britain), Alice Georgiu, A. Dimitriou (Greece), “Critical Remarks on the United Secretariat's Text on ‘Eurocommunism’”, in International Internal Discussion Bulletin‎^[2], volume 16, number 7, page 11a of 5–14:

     Thus the positions taken by the “Eurocommunists” are entirely situated within a counterrevolutionary perspective, which is probureaucratic and probourgeois at one and the same time. That is why they do not “reflect” the progressive aspirations of the masses for the “regeneration of the USSR,” any more than popular frontism reflects the aspirations of the masses for the workers united front: they are its very negation.
