Cosmonaut Coffee is now being served at the PD burger van, which doubles as a travelling agitprop theatre.

Handily I was able to snap this with my Fed3...

Says 1904, that pic (Russo-Japanese War).

This is more like it.

Yes, that's more like it.

My internet scouring skills require re-education.

 

[andysays]

I think Proletarian Democracy should issue a statement.

Statement bollocks!

What's really needed is a new range of PD coffee:

Proletarian Democracy Coffee - roasted in the fires of revolutionary zeal and ground using the thigh bones of dead capitalists​

​

The class deserves and demands nothing less...

ETA: ground by re-educated bureaucrats in labour camps, obviously

 

[seventh bullet]

I've already proposed a 'brand' name for what should be the intergalactic proletariat's hot beverage of choice.

As for re-education camps, I fear that slithering bureaucrats will merely be re-educating other bureaucrats to be better (or depending on your perspective, worse) bureaucrats. Departmentalism (or vedomstuennost' as the Russians once knew it) is best dealt with by bullets, comrade.

I can see a dangerous schism opening up here - you're being carried beyond righteous revolutionary zeal towards ultra-leftist nihilism. Best be careful or it will be you grinding the coffee in the labour camp - you have been warned

Does the incredibly dull People's Assembly promo video have counterfire all over it? The chap at the start is one of theirs and that sounds like the singer in the cafe vid at the end.

 

[treelover]

Grace Petrie would have been better as the backing track.

blimey, first ever scene of Tony with a beard

[For everyone enquiring as to why we are charging for registration please see below:



Most unions and local groups who are signatories for this event are sponsoring local people to attend. Do get in touch with your local union.

Also, if you are unwaged the registration cost is £4.

We do understand that paying to register is a contentious issue, however the costs with setting up and running such a vast meeting as this alone will mean that the event will run at a significant loss anyway.

If you are having real trouble in finding a way to attend and would like to, then do please get in touch with us and we will do all we can to accommodate you. The bottom line is that anyone who wishes to attend but cannot afford it, will not be turned away

The term Marxist Dianetics triggers some strange Newman-Fulani influenced ideas, maybe a new faction in PD

Where do scientologists come on the wheel of oppression? They're constantly the subject of ridicule and have to give lots of their money away so it must count for something.

 

[Riklet]

the petit-brainery peddling thetan-opium to the well heeled crust.

come the revolution their intergalactic technology will be appropriated by PD's interterrestrial propoganda division, so ensure the words of posadas are set to greet any intelligent life that has yet to develop class warfare and favour the nuclear solution.

 

[Spanky Longhorn]

Think about it - Xenu could only have come from a communist society
