Just got the latest book on Communism

It also taught me a lot about socialism because socialism and communism are synonymous

  • That looks more like the cover of a book critiquing capitalism. The bees in this case would represent the workers and the beekeepers would represent the bourgeoisie exploiting the workers for what they produce while giving them very very little of the wealth that they created, wealth that would not have been possible to make without the workers.

    • Communism and Communists have a lot of things in common. For example, they both don't work.

    • I'd bet you anything that at least one of the absurdly rich people in the U.S. have said something along those lines.

        • They aren't synonymous. Communism is more extreme than socialism, and is the end-goal of the implementation of a socialist economic system.

                  Heh... not bad, kid. Not bad at all. Your meme, I mean. It's not bad. A good first attempt. It's plenty dank... I can tell it's got some thought behind it... lots of quotable material... But memeing isn't all Rick Rolls and pepes, kid. You're skilled... that much I can tell. But do you have what it takes to be a #OffTopic memester? To join those esteemed shitposter ranks? To call yourself a member of #OffTopic? Shitposting takes talent, that much is true. But more than that it takes heart. The world-class shitposters - I mean the big guys, like timmys4threich and God - they're out there day and night, burning the midnight meme-oil, working tirelessly to shitpost that next top-shelf meme. And you know what, kid? 99 times out of a hundred, that meme fails. Someone downvotes it, or says it's "2edgy4me," or ignores it as they copy/paste the latest shitpost copypasta dreamt up by those sorry excuses for cut-rate memers over at #Destiny. The Meme Game is rough, kid, and I don't just mean the one you just lost :). It's a rough business, and for every artisan meme you craft in MS paint, some dumbass at #OffTopic has a shit meme or some shit that a million different Stonebrixx-wannabes will build a million different replicas to. Chin up, kid. Don't get all mopey on me. You've got skill. You've got talent. You just need to show your drive. See you on the boards...

                          Karl Marx's birthday is May 5, which is also Cinco de Mayo and the death day of Napoleon. I learned this on May 5 while researching Karl Marx for an essay. 5 is a prime. My username has prime numbers. The 5th prime is 11. The 5th character in my username is Y. The first number and letter in my username are 2 and K. Marx was born in 1818. If you add all the digits, you get 18, and then 9. So we've found 11, Y, 2, K, and 9. If you rearrange those, you get 9/11 Y2K. [b]MARXISTS CAUSED 9/11 AFTER THEY FAILED TO CAUSE Y2K.[/b] The prime numbers in my username that haven't been used yet are 3 and 7. 7 is in the url, so we have 3. Groucho Marx was known for his mustache. The character "]" looks the most like his mustache. If you look up three of those symbols on Youtube, you'll find THIS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1oRezdQEzM

                          • HAHAHAHAH. That's so funny. So witty. Almost Swiftian in its subltety. This guy is like, the Noel Coward of photoshop, the Aristophanes of the meme. I love how like, the resolution of the random screengrab is juxtaposed against the murkiness of the penguin classics border. Like he's drawing attention to the transient nature of the penguin classics range, in comparison to the almost eternal relevance of dreamwork's masterpiece. And then there's the irony! the fact that 150 years on Marx's work is still being published, still being read yet bee movie came out like 5 years ago and I had to google the image to know what it was from. And I've seen the fcking film! There I was thinking Marx was one of the greatest economists and philosophers of his age, but this meme has showed me how stupid I've been. I always thought they were just for morons - the kind of people who need three other imbeciles to tell them if something's funny or not, but this definitely bucks that trend. I was actually going to read Capital again, and make my own decisions, thank god you saved me the effort

                              Socialism is not about everything being equal. It's about everyone having a minimum of standards.
