Communists picket Matrix premiere to celebrate revolution

Communists picketed the Moscow premiere of The Matrix: Revolutions to celebrate the jubilee of the Russian revolution.

A group of 32 youngsters wore red T-shirts, Soviet army helmets and Matrix-style dark glasses outside the Pushkinskiy cinema.

They each held up neon-lit letters which spelt out the slogans "We are NEO-communists" and "Destroy the Matrix".

According to Communist Party ideologists, the Matrix series' central hero Neo is a genuine communist, reports Kommersant.

Oleg Bondarenko, Communist party youth movement leader, said there was "no difference" between Neo and Lenin as revolutionaries.

Ruh? Overthrowing oppression and servitude is what communism is all about? OH!! I know what they see. Neo threw off the capitalist world of the Matrix for the horribly desolate world that was left by the war. I get it -- the want to burn Russia down to create their ideal society where everyone eats the same meal everyday, wears the same clothes, and has little or no hope.

Lenin died goofy as a loon because his brain was inflect with syphilis. On the other hand both Lenin and Neo murdered alot of policemen and soldiers.

"no difference" between Neo and Lenin

Both have sharp cheekbones, silly made-up names, and a taste for mass slaughter.

"Oleg Bondarenko, Communist party youth movement leader, said there was "no difference" between Neo and Lenin as revolutionaries."

It's a good thing for these commies Lenin wasn't around to see this - he'd have them all bound, gagged, quartered and heading for the gulag in Sibera (never to see the light of day again).

Question: How many millions (of his own people) did Lenin slaughter?

How many did Stalin murder?

Factoid: One of the Wakowski brothers, creators, directors and producers of the Matrix trilogy, recently divorced his wife. He then married his dominatrix, whose services he had apparently availed himself of for some years prior. According to a longtime associate of the professional dominatrix, Wakowski has a Marilyn Monroe obsession. He likes to dress as Marilyn while being disciplined by his new wife.

Oh yeah --- Hollywood is cutting edge, baby, the gateway to a new and better American culture.
