All pencils are equal, but some pencils are more equal than others
George Orwell - Red Biro Farm, a classic tail of the struggle for supremacy
of the Stationary Cupboard

Um, I'm an artist... does that make me against your cause? I have a lot of
different pencils...

I mean, sure, they're in a nice green pencil case, but there's a large
diversity, and they're thriving quite well (they've spawned several kids,
plus the environment is prime for pencil habitation!)

From what, precisely??  Or has the sharpener of doom, heralding the end
of all things been spotted?

It's fine to offer them an appropriate place to live, provided you're
not allowing undue political influence on behalf of rubbers or pencil
sharpeners- remember: the days of such minority rule are over!

From the capitalist tyranny of pseudo-democratic slavery! So there!

You know there are those random lyric generators... well is there a
random marxist slogan generator anywhere?

How can you take Marx seriously?
Ok, admittedly Groucho WAS the funny one, as for the rest... the ability to
make several films, be a main character say nothing and honk a horn, doesn't
really make for great government - even if he did use to make tractors in
Vladivostok at the age of 7.

hmmm... Well, they get along very well with the erasers (I use the plastic
erasers, rather than the rubber ones), but that blue manual sharpener
doesn't always agree with them... hmmm...

I don'- that's why I want a Random Dialectic Generator- you could fill
in what you wanted freed, and it would then create a speech from a set
of stock phrases.

No, they just run the contents of a few daily papers through a
disassociation engine to create the contents of Red Flag/Socialist
Layabout.

Way back in the olden days, when things were made of black and white, there
were four brothers Harpo, Beppo (no not the one with the sore throat out of
Eastenders!) Chico and Groucho who made "films" (a bit like video but
biodegradable and made from Celluloid), and people laughed at them because
there was nothing else to laugh at.  Eventually of course people forgot the
Marx Brothers because funnier people came along, like Chamberlain who made
people laugh in 1939 by waving paper about whilst coming out of aeroplanes
and claiming to have secured "Peace in our Time".  Another famous Comedian
lampooned Charlie Chaplin but not many people liked Hitler's joke and he
eventually killed himself.
Italy too had it's "Comedians" - Musso Leeni was a famous one who was so bad
that he was hanged in the street by a disgruntled audience.
Stalin, a Russian who instigated the "Red Wedge" comedians  though was
clever. He heard what happened to Signor Leeni so he killed his audience
before they could get to him.
