The People's Cube - Political Satire

I admit we are living in dark times.

But, just as the Rethuglicans (spit) shut down the source of all that is good for purely partisan reasons, the Republic of Alaskan People strikes a blow for the proletariat. Today, every Prole, Mid-Level Apparatchik, and Party Elite member in Alaska is $900 richer.

Nearly every Alaskan will be $900 richer next month

The annual direct payout to citizens, which began in 1982, is unique to Alaska, even though other jurisdictions have resource…

Money rightfully taken from the evil Capitalists (spit) by the State is re-distributed to the Alaskan Citizenry. I predict there will not be a single large screen television or bottle of beet vodka left in the People's Goods Distribution center by closing time tonight.

Rejoice! Socialism is still on the march as the vanguard of Hard Communism!

You mean you actually have large screen televisions and vodka in your People's Goods Distribution Center??? I am very impressed. No, wait ... rather, I am very disturbed that your PGDC should have so many bourgeois goods when others do not ... no, wait ... rather, I am very disturbed that people want bourgeois goods at all ... no, wait ... rather, I am very disturbed about ... something. (It is sometimes hard to know where to place the outrage.)

Comrade, that is precisely the issue - we progs are disturbed, and PROUD OF IT!!

And there is so much to be disturbed about, how can we be expected to keep it all straight?

This is the essence of why we elected Comrade President B. Husseinovich Obama to a second term and in three years will elect him to a third - he keeps it all straight for us! Plus free stuff. And Messiah.

My dear fellow travelers, is it not a marvelous time to be both alive and disturbed?

I think this is as good a place for this as any, as it isn't really worth starting a thread over and it fits right in with the disturbed confusion.

Last night, there was a 10-hour flurry of wild flailing posts on Twitter, countered by attempts to logically and legally reason, all around this Harry Lawrence thatswhatsup333 guy. Here's one of the first of his, and one 10 hours later which pretty much properly capped the whole thing. I didn't post within the flurry, other than to offer LilMissRightie a drink after her post:

It was hysterically funny. But as someone else said, the scariest part is that his vote cancels out yours.
