Oh, that is some cherce stupid

Check this out; it’s a flyer someone poked through our next-door neighbor’s mail slot just before the Euro elections two weeks ago. For some reason, they didn’t put one in our box, so she shared.

It’s from the World Socialist Party, and it’s a truly rich and steamy vein of bullshit. Here are highlights from the above excerpt:

There is no money. There is no war. There are no rich people. There are no poor people. There are no leaders. All decisions are shared. All responsibilities are shared.

[…]

You now have no bills to pay, no rent, no mortgage, no debts. Everything is free, nothing is for sale, and neither are you. But you want to help, just like others do.

[…]

You might have chosen to drive a bus or a train, fix plumbing, coordinate a data network, plough a field, teach a child, organise an event, study engineering, cure a disease, brew beer, rehearse a play. You might choose to work four hours a week, or fouteen or forty.

So, lemme get this straight, four hours a week I brew beer (if I feel like it). For ten hours a day, my neighbor ploughs a freaking field he doesn’t own to grow crops he doesn’t control. Then we share equally in everything. Oh, no need for leaders or guys with guns to make this happen or anything.

Does anybody really believe this could work? C’mon. It has to be a put on, surely.

Click the picture for the whole flyer; there’s much more stupid where that came from. Or visit their website, if you think you can keep a straight face.

What do you bet their meetings always end in bitter acrimony and down-twinkles.

They are honest enough to admit this won’t be utopia. There’ll still be accidents and diseases and shit.

Things like this are designed to deceive angry youths…that’s why the lefties are always trying to lower the voting age…to capture the dumbass kids vote.

I think they should raise the voting age to 40 personally…

It’s my understanding that the first Plymouth colony was exactly this kind of communal arrangement.

When they found out this didn’t produce great results, they resorted to individual enterprise and voilá; the rest was history

Raise the voting age to 40, introduce a property qualification, an IQ test (<120 and you’re barred), an English — language and literature — test, an economics exam and a science exam, all to be passed at 95% to qualify. If you work for the government or are in net receipt of taxpayers’ money you are barred.

Yeah, shit. Shit like the millions of dead victims of the grand socialist experiment of the last century. Mao and Pol Pot meant well, though, and that’s what really matters. Socialism is just a rationalization for cavemen who can’t figure out why they shouldn’t be allowed to smash their neighbors’ heads in with a club and take their stuff. Fucking pricks.

Worse than that, Paula. Much worse. Cavemen, at a bedrock level, understood that better gets more. Stronger, smarter, more talented, harder-working cavemen smash more heads with better clubs and take more stuff. A realist was Og.

These guys think there’s a place where pussies can hold hands and sing kum-ba-ya and the lion will lie down with the lamb and Linda McCartney will die in ripe old age thanks to her vegan lifestyle.

We don’t need to raise the voting age. Just make announcing oneself a socialist grounds for summary execution. It’s for the children.

Dave, the reason poll tests are banned by the Constitution isn’t because the tests were keeping out the ignorant, it’s because the proctors/graders would pass the whites and fail the blacks regardless of what people actually knew. Do you really think voting officials in Detroit wouldn’t cheat shamelessly to get the right sorts of people voting?

If you think you can, boyo. Are you going to pull those pistols, or whistle Dixie?

Appropriate their MacBook Pros for the commons. Download a bunch of German movies (the ones with the enthusiastic ladies reinflating the gentlemen) for the commons. See how long they last before they decide they still want property ownership.

I see that someone has blown up a Dutch oil refinery …

Perhaps the Dutch police won’t beat up Russian diplomats for fun anymore?

The only people we hate more than the Romans are the World Socialist Party.

Splitters.

And the Judean Popular People’s Front.

I choose to smoke reefer and watch funny cat videos on YouTube all day. It makes everyone better off!

Will somebody bring me Cheetos and Mountain Dew? It’s really a hassle to have to get dressed and go to the store, maaan!

@Bikeboy – Sure, I’d be glad to bring you the goodies. I charge 0.75g Au per hour, no mileage fee unless > 50 miles.

You might not like all of Rand or Atlas Shrugged, but her chapter on the car factory where they implement “From each according to Ability, to each according to need” is dead on. And she should know, having grown up in Russia.

Here’s the text:

http://thesnarkwhohuntsback.wordpress.com/favorite-passages-from-atlas-shrugged/the-story-of-the-twentieth-century-motor-company-atlas-shrugged-part-ii/

Another good story is “A Slave is a Slave”,an old H. Beam Piper where a leftist is trying to uplift slaves on a planet by invoking socialism. One Ex-Upper_Slave says “How can the Commonwealth belong to everybody?” Another says “It may belong to everybody, but someone will have to run it for everybody. That will be you and me”

I disagree with Quasi – this isn’t for *angry* youths – they go for the Communist Brigade crap about marching and taking power and having the world tremble.

This is for the hippy-dippy type that likes to smoke dope and mellow out.

Let’s face it, ya gotta be high/drunk to actually sit around and cogitate on this kinda crap. Then ya gotta be a special kinda dopey to believe that it’s worth the time to put it in writing for the rest of the ½ mile high club or the Choom Gang to ruminate upon.
Anyone with more than 3 synapses firing will just view it with a slinky smile.

Since I’ve been in Alaska, I’ve been studying about the native tribes. Oddly, not a single one of them is organized in the way the pamphlet describes. Great providers, leaders, and producers are held in honor and placed in charge. The misfortunate are cared for, and lazy louts are pushed through the ice.

I should point out that these cultures are 3 – 10 thousand years old.

I get to choose what I do? Awesome!

Okay then, I choose to stand here with a gun and take everybody’s stuff! Hand it over, brothers! We’ll all be better off! Now go get some more stuff, right damn now.

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
