Animal Farm bastardized

Do NOT go see Animal Farm expecting it to look like the book. It is being released on May Day (the Communist holiday) to essentially re-write history. Capitalism is blamed instead of Communism!?!

    Control the language, Control the Thoughts. (1984)

    This is rewriting this story because it's WAS the simplest argument against communism.

    A friend had a special needs brother who was 100% communist because it meant EQUALITY and that's something he could NOT FEEL as he knew he was mentally impaired.

    I spent time whenever I visited them, to let him talk, because he was the perfect person to explain it. He was NOT embarrassed about anything he said. He was being true to himself, he just wasn't equipped to see the flaws.

    EQAULITY. After a few weeks of our conversations, I said if EVERYONE is equal, then EVERYONE gets to spend SOME TIME leading, right? (Yes)... Okay, what will you do when it is YOUR turn to lead... (Oh, they can't pick me because I have issues).

    Ah, but that would not be EQUALITY, now would it? (There are better people for that).

    Ah, so that implies... YOU and THEY understand... Not all people should lead... (Yes). And therefore... People are not "Perfectly Equal" which would make them interchangeable... They are "Equal as In Rights... Not abilities?" (Oh, Yeah).

    And... WE Already have that... Without destroying everyone else's desire to work.
