[two characters are talking]
Vaccines have saved millions of lives you know

[a blue character points at them proudly]
Heh, look at those idiots over there, they believe in the most obvious propaganda

[the blue character is shown doing various faces]
Anyway, did you know communism killed 100 million people?
I’ve seen that 20% of the people commit 80% of the crime
Our military keeps the world a safer place
Everyone starts with opportunities, you have to earn your place in society, work harder

[sixteen variations of the blue character are shown on a multicolored grid]
Crime is out of control and keeps getting worse
Men are natural leaders, women’s nature is to nurture
Billionaires create jobs
Poor people just keep making bad decisions in life
Migrants are taking our jobs
Socialism is when we all share the same paycheck
If you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear
If minimum wages go up, everyone will get fired, it’s math
We brought modernity to the countries we colonized
The wage gap is a myth you’re just looking at it wrong
Immigration mathematically causes crime
Developing countries are poor because of corruption
We are the good guys
If workers were worth more, they would be paid more
Universal healthcare is communism
Patriotism means supporting the troops

[a large drawing of a serious Garfield is surrounded by the infinitely repeating phrase]
YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE TO PROPAGANDA

    I strongly disagree with this statement.

    oh you strongly disagree? then will you present example of some happy communist society where they got that right, it just works for them and people are trying to immigrate there, because “hey, finally, you see? i told you it can work and i want to spend rest of my life there!”

    Therefore stating that communism killed so many people is wrong. The implementation of communism turns out to end up in authoritarian structures like so many revolutions do

    right, so communism is good, it is just those pesky people that are in the way… 😂

      Well, I didn’t say there is a functioning example. I said that the ideas of books are shaping realities in one way or another. Like it or not but books matter.

      “right, so communism is good, it is just those pesky people that are in the way… 😂”

      Well I did not say that. But I agree that communism is a lot of wishing that people are better than they are.
