If you yourself tried your hand at right-wing satire, and made a better job of it than I did, I would salute you. Instead you criticise yet can't be bothered doing better job yourself, if indeed you capable of pulling off a better job that is. I did it for a laugh, and I knew at least some would take it seriously. So in a way I got what I wanted: I wound someone up.
My premise was that this place is full of people that are left-wing for the sake of it - and I'd be surprised if I was wrong. And if you think I know nothing about left-wing politics; the history of the trade union movement and working/lower middle class self-education, you better think again. Not all people who lean to the right are populist pricks.
'Capitalism crumbles...'? I'd love a socialist society, but we'd have to disinherit the principle of money and profit as we know it, otherwise we'd end up more bankrupt than we already are. Simplistic, but probably true.
