Brevity by Dan Thompson for April 01, 2015

Different states lean in different directions, but I think his state is lenin pink.

That story smelt fishy to me.He’s just a small fry…and he picks up this stuff on socialist networking sites.

I predict a spirited but respectful debate on the pros and cons of Marxism. I’m kidding, people will cyber-yell at each other sooner or later.

It’s a silent protest, it ,must be Harpo.

“… to each according to his needs”, with a huge cut off the top for the Party leadership.

To see what this slogan leads to, look up “Starnesville”. It’s also why the Pilgrims starved in their first year in America.

See also “Animal Farm”. There’s also the pity party of one-downsonenselfship called “I’m MORE of a victim than you!”

Bait and switch

I give high Marx to this conversation, but the cartoon was a little fishy.

Or would that be “…a little fishee….”?

“…the next evolutionary step” and not revolutionary? You must be an1848 Marxist and not the 1865. As for “no such thing as Marxism”, tell that to the millions who died in its name.

Kind of biblical, 2 Corinthians 8:13-14—For I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened; but by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may supply their lack, that their abundance also may supply your lack— that there may be equality.

How old is this cartoon? These days, “red” means Republican or “Conservative”. Even China, still “Communist”, is no longer called “Red”. I give low Marx to this one.
