Ideology Puns

[RedBlackStar]

I was feeling punny in a class on Conservatism today (BORING) so I started coming with puns based all around ideology. Thought I'd share them on here for a bit of light hearted banter. Anyone got any to share? (Warning: High Chance of Bad Comedy)

What do you call a Liberal serial killer?
John Stuart Kill.

My country's probably too backwards for me to start a revolution.
But it's alright, I'm not russian.

How does a Liberal keep a Socialist from taking his property?
He Lockes his doors.

What do say about a Communist with the shits?
He's got the Trotskys.

What do you call a Revolutionary Leader who failed to start a global revolution?
Sadmir Lenin.

What's Mao's favourite plate to eat off?
The Red China.

I decided that I needed to compliment my knowledge on Marxism but I didn't know how.
I took a step back and started looking at it from other Engels.

I saw a guy with a scruffy beard walking down the street. I said to him: 'you've got no class'.
He replied: 'Thanks'.

I invited Marx round to my place for a cup of tea. He brought round his own artificial, bottled tea. I asked him: 'Why are you drinking that stuff?'
He said: 'It's because I hate proper-tea'.

These are terrible and wonderful simultaneously.

It's Mao or never!

So I take it you wouldn't give me high Marx?

I was going to get some from the internet as well but I've been Stalin for time.

I Kant believe how many there are. I'm sure we'll be Kautsky out soon enough.

Let's enjoy it while it lasts. I'm pretty Proudhon of myself.

I genuinely have no idea what "Kautsky" was supposed to be a pun for. "Running"?

'Caught'. A lot* of people here pronounce his name 'Kort-sky' not 'Kowt-sky'.

Likewise some Brits think Eva Braun (Ayva Brown) was called 'Eeva Brorn'.

*By 'a lot' I suppose I mean very very few, as opposed to the massive number who neither know nor care who he is. Obviously many more people know who Eva Braun is.

[Anglo-Saxon Philistine]

Thanks, I was Renner out of ideas.

I say "kowt-sky" and 'Brorn"? Am I wrong to?

but who the fuck puts a second "r" in "eva braun"?

also, is "kautsky" like "sauerkraut" like kout-sky or is it like "hall" like kaht-sky?

Well, the question is, how should you pronounce '-au-' in a German? Should you pronounce it '-ow-' or should you pronounce it '-or-' (in communer's orthography, is it '-ou-' or '-ah-', but I think the latter would produce the pronunciation 'Brarn' and Kartsky', because I think the word 'hall' is pronounced 'horl')?

It's either 'Brown' and 'Kowtsky', or 'Brorn' and 'Kortsky'.

Hint, it's 'Brown' and 'Kowtsky'.

You just made everyone even more confused

[Blake's Baby]

Yeah, only because communer changed the orthography half way through, and I was trying to be inclusive.

So; is '-au-' pronounced '-ow-' (therefore, Brown & Kowtsky) or is it pronounced '-or-' (therefore Brorn & Kortsky)?

[motion denied]

who pronounces Kortsky?

Also, we all know that the correct pronunciation is "Cáutiski".

[Zoroaster]

I've got some puns.

I'll Marx my Karlender.

Well, Lenin see about that.

Quit Stalin.

Stop being so Il, you Duce (that wasn't that great).:laugh:

[The Feral Underclass]

It's pronounced Kowtsky but the Brits I know say Kortsky.

As TFU says... some English-speakers pronounce '-au-' in German words as '-or-'. as in the name of the famous producers of electrical goods, which is almost always prounced 'Brorn', even on their own TV adverts.
