The Bastards!

[Rakhmetov]

I usually dismiss out of hand youtube videos that I accidentally click on that are of a right-wing nature but this one ticks me off. I mean the temerity of these guys. Equating Marx, Lenin, Castro, Gramsci, Che, Allende with Darth Vader and comparing Pinochet with Luke Skywalker????? Somebody should beat up these people who put up this garbage!

I wish this was in chit-chat.

Seems like Sony, of all people, put down the first video. I think something is very ironic here, but can't but my finger on it.

Should not the socialists be the rebels? I mean Pinochet is a Darth Vader in service of Empire.

It's really, really weird how rightists mold and shape any obvious anti-rightist books and movies into their own twisted version. Star Wars was not "socialist" but it wasn't right wing either. It was a pro-liberal movie.


No use getting upset over this. Right Libertarians do this all the time.

I had a crazy Randian argue with me about how the movie Moon wasn't really anti-corporate but anti-statist as the corporation resembled the evil Statist nature of collectivist ideology sacrificing the valiant individual!

I had to step away slowly.....
