    We must see that it is only the boundless thirst of the queen which the worker ant serves that brought them into your home, and that in stomping the ant out you are in actuality only weakening the workers’ struggle and therefore inviting the queen to elevate her tyranny, the further imperialist invasions of human homes in her cruel leb-ant-sraum.

    This bit is hilarious but it's also entomologically inaccurate. It's a eurocentric-anthropomorphic projection to even call ant queens "Queens." Ants are big collectives that work together -- the egg-laying queens do not at all rule tyrranically
