[This episode of the OOT was originally scheduled for 1 May. It was pre-empted for obvious reasons. –Bunk X]
“May Day! May Day! It’s time to take the capitalist system down, because it’s b-a-a-a-a-a-d! If you create wealth and try to keep it, you’re greeeeedy! The People, Anointed, Will Never Be Disjointed! Wealth is evil! Poverty is good! Everybody now! Bah-Ram-Ewe! Bah-Ram-Ewe!”
According to the purveyors of International Communist Day, you’re not a Worker unless you do manual labor, and if you’ve crossed the threshold to being an employer of Workers, you’re not only a turncoat, you’re an enemy of The People.
So let’s raise our glasses in solidarity, toast those who pay us the wages that keep us miserable, and march forward into The Overnight Open Thread.
