Comrades, I was thinking about plagiarizing current truths last week to send along to other comrades when I came across this glorious Progressive legislation that saved me from committing a thoughtcrime against The Party(TM). For any comrades that cannot see how glorious this new new new legislation is I recommend two Jiffi-Lobo's and call me in the morning. (...that is if you wake up, if you have enough diapers available, and if you do not opt for your lobe-ing with impalment spikes through the ear canal)


`Sec. 881. Cyberbullying

`(a) Whoever transmits in interstate or foreign commerce any communication, with the intent to coerce, intimidate, harass, or cause substantial emotional distress to a person, using electronic means to support severe, repeated, and hostile behavior, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.'

Re-Actionary Fools!


Finally, the article asks at the end:
Tell us what you think, comment on this story below.

Well... you could... but you MUST apply for clearance and a copy of The Current Truth form The Party first.

Does this mean I won't be able to harass Comrades Theocritus, Colonel 7.62 and others?

This appears to be a progressive Canadian law.

At any rate Leninka, you can engage in any conduct you like. After all The Party(TM) has free speech. Unless of course you say the wrong thing. Then if you are lucky, you just dig beets. If you are unlucky you also dig beets. But it is harder to dig beets while riding one of Commissar Theocriticus' impaling stakes, or being used as Revolutionary Target Practice(TM). Remember, never, ever volunteer for bayonet drill.

Thank you Colonel 7.62. And now, for some harassing: that Olympia, Washington place you live in certainly has a high number of fruitcake brains. Although, I must say, these types are all over. But they do seem to congregate in your state. One of my best friends from high school moved there many years ago. Her brain always seemed to be powered by a mixture of patchouli oil, granola bits, and Tom's Natural Toothpaste.

However, just to make you feel better, across the street from where I live, resides one of these types. She drives what I call a "Flea Egg" car, and after driving me nuts, with her pesky Organic Nacho-brain comments, I told her I never wished to speak to her again, and walked home in a huff-it is now a standing legend in the neighborhood. Of course, after many years we are cordial, but our contact is brief and superficial. We exchange no more than five words per year.

"....brain always seemed to be powered by a mixture of patchouli oil, granola bits, and Tom's Natural Toothpaste. "

Sounds like the land of Tasty Flakes and Nuts where this fine bill originated from: California Rep Linda Sanchez. Oh glorious leader! I can not wait!

Comrade Leninka, you have committed a thoughtcrime. Olympia is full of glorious progressives. They have had so many Jifi-Lobos(TM )their brains ARE made up of patchouli oil, granola bits and Tom's Natural Toothpaste. To criticize that would be the same as criticizing Chairman Obama. Off to the Jifi-Lobo(TM) for you! (And get me some crullers on the way would you? The ones with the light glaze. And maybe some organic fair trade shade grown coffee. You know, the ones harvested, dried, roasted and ground individually by a clever aborigine in the jungle living in peace and harmony with Gaia.)

I'm afraid you are correct. My mind is still littered with the filth of the days I rooted for AuH₂0 (curse his soul) as a mere child, when my little sister so cutely said: "All AuH₂0 needed was some more electrical votes, and he would have won."

It is exasperating to me that sometimes, at night, mostly, the effects of the Jifi-Lobo wear off. I hang my head in shame and will take it to the nearest Jifi-Lobo for an extra cleansing, immediately. And your glazed donuts and Jungle Java are on their way.

Leninka, keep up the good work, and you may get issued a glorious People's Pocket Pistol(TM) cast from only the finest grade plastic. Naturally it will not work, but it will look impressive, and nobody will know if it will work or not. Just wave it around and act like you are in charge of the work detail and the proles will keep digging.

I always enjoy a good prole digging! Why, each time I am in the field with my Citizen's Army(TM) proscribed by his O'liness, I wave my People's Pocket Pistol™ around and away they go!

Little do they know it is merely a squirt gun...

Oh the fun we have in The Collective(TM)!

Definition of Thought Criminal:

This is a wonderful piece of legislation, but we must go a step further. We must also remove games that have online play that use competition and survival of the fittest. Games like Halo only perpetuate competition and thus leads to cyberbullying. We have been successful in removing competitive games from the school playgrounds and removing free thought from the classrooms. Let us now tear down the last bastion of evil free thought. We must force them to be good people.

Comrade Mon Tse-Tro,

What a glorious idea! We should introduce legislation at one to round up and administer Jiffi-Lobo to all proles playing such hateful games as Halo, World of Warcraft, and on and on.

Comrade, this excites me to no end, my Jiffi-Lobo scalpel will be busy beyond belief!
