There's some "March for Bernie" event in NYC on Saturday

So yeah, for any FReepers that aren't too far from NYC, if you want to go to protest socialism, it's at Union Square Park from 3pm - 6pm.

I'm surprised they didn't hold this today during business hours, since it's the gimme crowd.

Better to pose as Bernie supporters — but carry signs which spell out what he wants in plain English.

In plain English and the most out-there language possible.

I wish I had noted who posted this on FR, but there was a quote something along the lines of “Even the Germans couldn’t make socialism work...”

Do these self-avowed socialists ever read about the kind of society they are inviting upon themselves?
Disarmament is the ideal of socialism. There will be no wars in socialist society; consequently, disarmament will be achieved. But whoever expects that socialism will be achieved without a social revolution and the dictatorship of the proletariat is not a socialist. Dictatorship is state power based directly on violence. And in the twentieth century—as in the age of civilization generally—violence means neither a fist nor a club, but troops. To put “disarmament” in the program is tantamount to making the general declaration, “We are opposed to the use of arms.” There is as little Marxism in this as there would be if we were to say, “We are opposed to violence!”

— Lenin, “The ‘Disarmament’ Slogan”, 1916
That is what Sanders really stands for.

The Republicans in Congress would rather work with Bernie than Trump. That’s all you need to know about them.

“The Republicans in Congress would rather work with Bernie than Trump. That’s all you need to know about them.”

That may be true. At least they’ll know what they’re getting with Sanders!

Something like this, perhaps?

“Education is a basic right. The government should pay for everyone to be educated, including college.”

Don't use cursive or big words, and make sure to spell fone-et-ic-allee

Don't worry. Not a single hour of work will be missed by anyone attending.
