If he hates Capitalism, why isn’t he returning his paycheck each month?

They are, of course, the brainworks of the farm. It is for our sakes they eat all the apples and drink all the milk.

Well, that qualifies him to spew hate against the 1%, doesn't it?

From his dacha on the River. Like all good communists - even those in the slave mines deep under Siberia.

He thinks that because he collects his paycheck from the government, that it is not tainted by capitalism. Of course, the capitalist economy provides the jobs and the taxes that make his government job possible.

He's just another smelly leftist hypocrite, living off the labor of the people while he provides absolutely NOTHING of social utility. If there actually were a REAL leftist revolution, he's the kind of person who would be among the first to be put up against a wall and shot.

Man, he is the absolute cliché image of a left-wing academic prick - the rimless glasses, the tousled hair, the red-and-black garb.
