Oppressive habits persist inside revolutions as cultural remnants of the old society.

Evidence

As the cultural revolution deepens conscientização in the creative praxis of the new society, people will begin to perceive why mythical remnants of the old society survive in the new. And they will then be able to free themselves more rapidly of these specters, which by hindering the edification of a new society have always constituted a serious problem for every revolution. Through these cultural remnants the oppressor society continues to invade—this time invading the revolutionary society itself. — Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of the Oppressed, 505
