Fools, Frauds and Fascists

Vote

Consume

Obey

This is your life, fool.

Not an original thought, ever.

Toothless opinion neatly packaged

Rush Limbaugh

Jon Stewart

Chapo Trap House

And other confusion mongers

Think. Learn to think for real.

Analyze. Scrutinize. Question. Critique.

Ruthless criticism of all that exists.

Act. Organize. Plan. Study. Learn.

Why does killing happen?

Where does your food come from?

Why is Maduro bad but Bernie good?

Why doesn’t your TV carry scenes

From San Juan 24/7?

Why don’t you read Rashid in school?

How come MLK on a postage stamp?

Why do you vote every 4 years yet get foreclosed?

Why are you powerless, how you get that way?

What is fascism?

Fascism is you not being able to give a shit

About kids in camps

Cuz you gotta work to feed your own kids.

It’s designed that way.

Don’t dare to dream when you live a nightmare.

Fascism is a grocery store full of food

Which sees the dumpster able to be eaten.

Fascism is driving to a protest against Yankee imperialism with gas wrenched from the Middle East at gunpoint.

What is foolishness?

Foolishness is living in jail yet being afraid to go to jail to get out of jail.

Foolishness is apathy and nihilism being taught to children in classrooms and cartoons.

Foolishness is knowing where political power comes from yet being fearful of wielding it.

Foolishness is knowing Marx without doing Marx.

Foolishness is naming your magazine Jacobin while being guillotine fodder.

Foolishness is colonizers having black kids to accessorize and match their Gucci bag.

What is fraud?

Fraud is a geriatric senator from Alaska being portrayed as an anti-imperialist meme candidate to help his Twitter crew get internships and resume fluff.

Fraud is Yankee more for me socialism

Fraud is AOC

Fraud is zombie Roosevelt knocking on your door

Fraud is a Mao puppet with a colonizer’s hand up his ass saying “love thy colonizer”

Fraud is the indolent minority of the world that eats the produce of the majority referring to themselves as “the masses”

Fraud is an opinion on Cuba, Venezuela and the Philippines yet the only armed struggle in your own country being waged by fascists at Walmart against colonized people

Meditate. Observe. Be humble. Be red.
