As I near 200,000 followers here at fishingboatproceeds, I just wanted to to say China is one of my favorite countries. Not only that, but communism is amazing. It makes me go a little crazy on it to be honest. Like, I cannot spread it wide enough through the world to be satisfied. I’m only satisfied when I feel those intense, powerful, rhythmic chants of the workers in the streets. When I sit back on my heels, look around at the revolution with warmth in my heart and sweat running across my brow, hair all fucked up and wipe my face with the back of my arm and ask you if I did a good job and you cannot even speak because I’ve drained the means of production out of the parasitic bourgeoisie..... that’s when I’m satisfied.
