Let’s add to our collection of communism humor.
Yes, I realize that we probably shouldn’t laugh about a horrific ideology that has killed 100 million people.
Especially since it’s still producing hardship, brutality, and suffering in places such as North Korea and Cuba.
Nonetheless, I think mockery of this evil ideology serves a purpose.
Today, we’ll start with a modified version of the it’s-a-party motto that some communists use. In this version, however, there’s some truth in advertising.
Speaking of food, here’s the communist version of Five Guys.
Though it’s slightly inaccurate because not everyone dies. There’s always a fat-and-happy ruling elite. It’s the ordinary people who suffer.
In the past, I’ve mocked leftists for trying to explain away real-world failures with the excuse that “real communism hasn’t been tried.”
Well, in the interest of fairness, I finally received an example of communism working.
Though maybe I’m being too kind. After all, we haven’t actually seen the bottle get opened.
This image could just be another example of leftists having good intentions, but then being unable to deliver good results.
The bottom line is that we should mock communism, but let’s never forget that it is a miserable failure, just like socialism (its usually-less-totalitarian cousin).
Sharing my wealth with the poor is a bad ideology. The only poor person I would share a few dollars with is an attractive hooker who is poor.
[…] heartily recommend this essay (link) which, I think, has exactly the right introduction. Yes, it’s a piece about Communism humor. […]
Petr Beckmann published Hammer and Tickle, anti-communist jokes from behind the Iron Curtain, via the Golem Press. I sent a copy to Ronnie Reagan.
Sadly, most people don’t have any idea of how horrible Communism and Socialism is. Giving away control to a(ny) group of people so they can thrive, eat what they want, live like kings while telling you that you have to work and suffer for everyone’s benefit is insane. But that’s exactly what these two political regimes styles did. There is no human being we should trust with our freedom and control over our lives.
ONLY those who tasted these regimes’ horrors by living in such countries truly understand how dangerous they are. Exceptions are few and rare with people who can think for themselves.
here’s a little black humor… ol’ bernie sanders lifted his “economic bill of rights” straight out of stalin’s 1936 soviet constitution… just imagine the outrageous frivolity we could all enjoy were he to become POTUS…
