The People's Cube - Political Satire

Dear Comrades,

The Committee for State Security under the Department of Homeland Social Security issued a directive to all citizens regarding words that should not be used in public. The Department's Directorate for Popular Communication Regulation has compiled a list of words that, if used in public communications like email, telegrams, or Morse code transmissions via licensed radio transceivers, will result in an immediate investigation by State Security officials.

Dept. of Homeland Security Forced to Release List of Keywords Used to Monitor Social Networking Sites

All citizens are reminded that their conversations are monitored for the safety and security of the People. Because of the joys of Democratic Socialism, we often forget that hate speech and non-progressive thought can also be communicate from one person to another through subversive arguments and counter-revolutionary agitation. The State ensures the safety and security of all citizens by monitoring and recording communication between citizens and intervening in such cases where falsehoods or malicious lies are being communicated.

In this way, all citizens can feel free to share their innermost thoughts with others, without fear that they are leading others astray, because the State is watching with a careful and caring eye (and ear). However, citizens are also instructed to denounce any unauthorized use of these words. A new, convenient way to register denunciations is via email:

[email protected]

Citizens should review the list of words and memorize them for future reference. The State reserves these words only for State usage, and any attempt to use them without authorization will result in an automatic investigation. Usage of these words without authorization will result in charges of theft of Government Property under the new Federal Penal Code issued by the White Fortress in commemoration of the second unanimous election of Comarade Party Chairman and President Barack Barackovich Obama as Head of State.

Citizen, watch what you say!
Report use of unauthorized words!

Faithfully submitted to the Collective of the People's Cube,
Comrade Nomenklatura-climber
Proletarian Red-noser

This is quite an extensive list of 'bad' words that's too impractical to remember not to use by the average prole. Maybe it would be easier to just memorize what is really important and necessary: HAIL O'BAMA! MMM MMM MM!

Everything else will be regarded with scrutiny.

I, Krasnodar, am pleased that our government cares enough about our welfare to continually monitor but our participation and chosen subject matter on the internet.

Concerning security :
Dear Leader's administration has repeatedly demonstrated its trustworthiness in these matters over the last four years........ and I know that as long as we, the property of the State, obey their his His commands and keep a close eye on our neighbors, we the people have nothing to fear.

Next Tuesday is most glorious, is it not, comrades?

It's a good thing the list doesn't include "Communist Manifesto," "Marx," Trotsky," "Lenin,"
Stalin," "Che," "violent revolution," "kill the rich" - or the Party would be in trouble.

Just kidding. Why would Party punish itself for implementing its primary function?

This takes 'Politically Correct Speech' to a new level.

I denounce this sorry author! Where are the red flag indicator words like "liberty, freedom, rights, profit, property, .."?


THAT is the stuff that revolutions are started with.





He wastes my electronics. <spit>

You have 17 unsuspicious words, use them wisely.

I hope the words "I" and "me" are not on this list or else Dear Leader will have nothing to talk about.

ThePeoplesComrade -

I like your idea! Let me liberate and redistribute it with a different angle -

The Party Issues List of Forbidden Words. “We still have 17 permissible words left. Let's use them wisely, comrades!”

Hazmat, infrastructure, guns... What does all this mean. I must ask on Face Book
