Yes, we've all heard of those loveable creatures, the Smurfs. Those little blue organisms of joy. But what many people haven't heard is the truth to the Smurf cartoon show--or should i say the S.M.U.R.F. show.

Let's put it this way, J.I. Joe is nothing more then army propaganda that the government uses to instill happy thoughts of our countrie's "hero's" into the youth of America.

So just like capitalist America, the U.S.S.R. came up with an ingenious idea to do the same thing--implement socialistic ideas into America's youths. Their show was aptly titled The Smurf's or, as it really should be called, Social Men Under Red Father.

I mean think about it, it really makes all too much sense. A bunch of Smurf people living in a problem free, equal community in which no one has any more then the next person. Smurf village is 100% socialistic.

And there's of course Poppa Smurf. Poppa Smurf, the LEADER of the society and he's also the one sporting red clothes and hat, as well as a white beard atop his rounded face. Remind you of anyone? Perhaps either Stalin or Marx--it's a close call. See how things are now making perfect sense?

So now that we know that the Smurf's are all socialistic and communist and are simply trying to get kids to think "hey that Poppa Smurf ain't bad" we now come to the charecter of the man always trying to catch the Smurf's, and his very fat cat. Of course the man represents Capitalism. The man always tries to capture the Smurf's and cook them in his pot which turns the Smurf's into gold. And of course his fat cat represents U.S. Citizens, fat on money.

So I'm sure a few of you have heard about this theory and of course it's now open to critizism, praise, etc. right here on the message board.

I look forward to replies!

Oddly enough this is the most useful information I've gotten out of school in a long time. Sadly it's information about Smurfs. But anyway, I did hear this theory in school but my teachers did in turn get it from the internet. So I'll guess you'll have to pull a search for some more info.


Sadly, Smurf reruns have been pulled from the U.S. Airwaves. But I hear Russia has a Smurf channel dedicated to the show itself.

And yes, the cat I believe was quite fat. Ha, I made a rime.

That’s so funny, cause we had the same discussion, about the Smurfs being the ideal communist society in one of my sociology tutorials at uni. Definitely one of my more memorable moments at uni. I think my tutor said that the Smurfs weren’t intended to be a symbol of a political system, but its something people like to read into it.
The only thing that always bothered me about the Smurfs was that there was only one Smurfette. Not exactly a fair society when it comes to the equality of the sexes. :0)
I wonder what people read into the episodes where they get some disease in the village and all the Smurfs turn black and aggressive and start biting each other?

Azreal was the name of some sort of god i think,
and the real question is
how did the smurfs procreate before they met smurfette?

Yes one smurfette, hmmmmmmm--are their whores in soicalism? Ok stupid question, nevermind...

But the thing where they all get the disease, maybe they all catch a bad epidemic of greed.

By the way, and I realize this is a new topic all in it's own, what the hell is that Kid Rock smoking?

I love the words Emiliano Zapata, Sabre. Ya know, Castro names part of Cuba after Emiliano, Zapato Peninsula I believe it is.

Thanks for that Marxist analysis of the smurfs! I must confess to having been completely addicted to the smurfs when I was a kid - I collected one smurf each week until I had the set and then got the mushroom house! But I'm ashamed to say that I never contemplated their socialist meaning.

What are people's thoughts on the role of Papa smurf and Smurfette? Is Papa smurf a Fidel? Is Smurfette the token female? Is this a gay male socialist society? ...

how about this one?

the smurfs = KKK
poppa = grand dragon (red hat)
bad guy (gargamel?) = stereotypical Jewish person (big nose and stuff...)

I'm pretty sure the Smurfs aren't KKK, but anyway, personally I believe Pappa Smurf plays a bigger role then Fidel, if that's even possible. Pappa Smurf is probobly either Stalin or the Red Father himself, Karl Marx. Although, since Marx was an inventor rather then a leader, I'm forced to believe Pappa Smurf was Stalin.

And there's obviously nothing wrong with watching the Smurfs I mean look how me and Chancho turned out, perfectly unaffected by the Smurfs.....
