To the barricades, Photoshoppers

March 4th, 2009

Maybe the creepiest thing yet, from a ruling junta fairly brimming over with examples of Stalinist creepiness:




Just so’s you’ll know who to grovel to, in gratitude for their extraordinary generosity in giving you back a few pitiful shekels of your own money. FORWARD TO THE GLORIOUS FUTURE, COMRADES! ALL HAIL THE WISDOM AND BENEVOLENCE OF THE LORD OBAMA, FROM WHOM ALL BLESSINGS FLOW!

    The Hammer and Sickle represented the industrial workers and the agricultural workers united.

    The Plant and the gears also represent the industrial workers and the agricultural workers united.

    To the Barricades indeed. Take a look over at ACE OF SPADES for some inspiration. I have been writing about how to use this elsewhere, so please bear with me.

    For less than one week’s allotment of “stimulus” [$13, Hussein Pasha thinks we are a cheap date] you can buy a pack of printer sticker stock. Print up your favorite variant and every time you see Hussein Pasha’s ARRA agit-prop, stick one of yours on it. Given the imagination of Patriots, there should be an interesting variety. If they are amusing enough, it will turn Obama’s symbol into an object of ridicule. It is but a step from ridicule to contempt. It is but another short step from contempt to hatred, if those you have contempt for are oppressing you.

    Further [and I blatantly stole this idea], print up copies of the official logo. And every time you see an empty storefront where a business has failed, every time you see a junked out car, attach an official logo. Associate the enemy with the results of his policies. Similarly, a simple “Thank You, Obama” sticker used the same way would have effect.

    Will this win the battle for us? Hell no. But, like Resistance slogans chalked on walls in Occupied Europe; it will give us something to do in lieu of more direct efforts [and admittedly amuse a number of us], have some effect on the undecided middle, and annoy the [insert series of expletives of choice] out of the True Believers in the Lightbringer. And if said True Believers choose to over-react, it is all to the good.
