Current Events > "Eat the rich" is such a ridiculous phrase

(+) Yeah! (+)

It'd be much more economical and environmentally friendly to use them as fertilizer instead

Theres only one thing that theyre good for

Out of the palace and into the ditch.

But fertilizer has poop in it. And from my experience, the best way to make poop is by eating.

compromise: make half of the rich eat the other half, that way they'll be full of nutritious manure when it comes time to spread them in the fields

Its a really good way to show that youre an edgy teenager

I've never heard anyone use the phrase except for Aerosmith.

Also, I'd like to give a shout out to one of my favorite arcade rail shooters of all time...Revolution X. Brilliant gameplay. Brilliant story. You see, Aersomith gets kidnapped during a concert and you have to save them and the world from the bad guys. There's even one part where you play a video recording on a TV of Steven Tyler giving you a "if you're seeing this video, it's too late..." Message. And at the end of the message he tosses the keys to his car through the TV screen and your player catches it. If there's two players playing then it's always a point of interest to see which player's hand reaches out and grabs the keys (even though it doesnt matter), implying that the video recording of Steven Tyler trusts that player with his car more than the other player. This is important because then you get to rub it in the other player's face. But really, most of the game is just shooting your gun and launching CDs at enemies and stuff. CDs do more damage, but they are somewhat limited.

Still wasteful. Someone's got to do all the undesirable labor.

I don't know about you, but I love to play with chainsaws and woodchippers

Haha genocide is funny if its targeted at someone I dont like

Eat the rich isn't a ridiculous phrase, most socialist nations have to resort to cannibalism at some point.

Eating the poor would be far more effective.

"Eat the rich" is based on a quote by Rousseau that pre-dates socialism by a century.

"When the poor shall have nothing more to eat, they will eat the rich."

This is a good and reasonable point. The rich should be wary of creating desperate conditions for the poor, if not for moral reasons then for the sake of self-preservation.
