Do you believe in a democratically equal country where there is no direct correlation between wealth and political power?
Do you believe in public education?
Public healthcare?
If so then you better listen up. Because the war on our very identity has picked up the pace.Lately newspapers like the National Post and other more right leaning publication have started spewing out the terms socialist and socialism as tho they are concepts that are poisoning their lives. And we're letting them get away with it and giving them a reward as well (bailouts).
I don't doubt that many readers don't truly understand socialism as the entity it has evolved into today. Socialists haven't done a very good job of distancing themselves from the misuses of the term by Stalin or Hitler and our opponents have done a very good job of making sure that those few who do want to make some noise are politically neutered.
Enough is enough.
Are we going to give in? Bend over and the let them turn socialism into a insult, turn us into the red demon of the new cold war; without so much as a halfhearted reach around?
FUCK THAT!
We've been passive in all the wrong ways. Our passivity has molded into apathy. Time to take a page from Ghandi's book of passive resistance and fight (non-violently) this nonsense.
So lets take back our word and tell them all to go to hell. We're socialists and proud.
Whatcha got to say to that CanWest?
....oh thats right, you better say nothing because dispite all the fire and misinformation you been spewing about socialists your more then willing the take a socialist handout from the taxpayers when you vaunted capitalist endeavor of a media monopoly has failed.
