Doonesbury Again

He has spent the last week making a parody of the Tea Party movement. He’s working so hard at it he actually showed his complete IGNORANCE of the world in this particular strip when he had a goofy clown-looking man talk about attracting people who believe the government is fascist, AND those who believe it is socialist. He just doesn’t know (or ignores) that they’re both collectivism; only the details differ. Under socialism, the government owns the means of production and, naturally, controls everything; while under fascism, the PEOPLE “own” their property, but the GOVERNMENT controls it, and everything else. Both involve TOTAL CONTROL over everything. This is something that escapes those who know nothing, mostly through not paying attention to politics. Doonesbury, however, doesn’t have that excuse. He must pay attention, but he just ignores important things. (Doonesbury)
