For anyone that hasn't read or listened to Parenti before, I highly recommend the "Yellow Parenti" Speech and Blackshirts and Reds | Audiobook

Those were the two that altered my view to the world nearly a decade ago. Highly recommended.

Alright. The real entertainment value here won’t be the post itself, because it’s acutely serious social critique wrapped in a meme format.

So I’m gonna keep refreshing the post while sorting by “controversial” as I wait for the real show. 🍿
