Cone of Silence

Check this out, comrades. There's still time to express solidarity with this guy.

This Stakhanovite Mr. Clean confronted our great Leninist leader. That is why he must be "silenced."

Proles are not allowed to outshine one other. It is dangerous and suggestive and we don't want any proles believing the bourgeois myth of "self-improvement." To the gulags, "Joe the Plebian"!

Great Leader is not dead. The sun simply casts a new shadow over him!

Stalin exterminated not only those who made mistakes. He also exterminated those who were standing next to him when he himself made mistakes. He was getting rid of the people who remembered him in the less glamorous days of his life and whose mere existence was a reminder of former embarrassments, gaffes, and wrong moves.

Stalin got rid of just about everybody who made the revolution with him and who had the memories of Stalin playing a less significant role in it than the role he wanted to be written in history books.

What's more important is that many people went along with it, believing that the killings, smears, denunciations, and prison terms were for the Greater Good. An untarnished image of a leader that unified the country in difficult times seemed more important than the life of some loser who happened to be in the wrong place in the wrong time.

The Party media went along with it. There wasn't any other media left in the country.

Joe the Plumber was standing in front of the Messiah when the Messiah made a slip of the tongue about spreading the wealth around that had almost cost him the election. Joe was the one asking questions. Joe was a witness. Joe is the reminder of the dark moment in the Messiah's life and the distress it had caused. Joe's very existence is a nuisance and is no longer desirable. Joe must go.

When Obama' campaign tried to destroy Joe, the Party media went along with it believing that sacrificing one commoner to save the Messiah would advance the Greater Good. Once again, an untarnished image of a leader that unified the country in difficult times seemed more important than the life of some loser who happened to be in the wrong place in the wrong time.

Even the Party TV comedians tried their best to destroy Joe. But the problem is, we still have the non-Party media. The day we get rid of the alternative media will also be the the day when Joe the Plumber can be removed from society without anyone noticing it or caring enough to pay attention.
