KevinDW78 Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 (edited) My best friend is a math major in college and today was the first day for his Marxist Economics class. The funny part is that he just texted me and told me the syllabus for the class is 28 pages long. I just couldn't stop laughing at that.

K-Mac Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Speaking of Marx, saw two bumper stickers on my way to work this morning... "Marx/Engel '08" Complete with a picture of each and an American flag. Then underneath that one... "Jesus was a Socialist" I can't wait for the DNC to leave town.

Steve D'Ippolito Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Last three comments were all hilarious because true. I wonder how different the last few decades would have been if the Left had not succeeded in obfuscating the fact that Nazi is an abbreviation for "National Socialist."

Giving money to the government doesn't sound much like an anarchist to me. Read the Bible if you're ever in need of a good laugh.

I forget how hard attitude can be to get across on the internet at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinDW78 Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 My friend just told me the funniest part of the syllabus: You should be aware that Marxism is an embattled theory, which is sometimes met with hostility. It may hurt your employment prospects if you have too many Marxist classes on your transcript, and participants who intend to apply for US citizenship should be especially cautious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devils_Advocate Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Damn, there goes my major!! I can see it now: "Well, you have all the requirements, you seem perfect for the job. But - we can't take you." "What?!? Why?" "You majored in Marxist Economics, and we don't trust your kind 'round here." "I'm not a Marxist, though!" "Well, I'm looking at the transcript, and - frankly, I think your a Marxist." "I am not!" "Then why was your major Marxist Economics?" "Know thy enemy." "Well, there's a difference between knowing them and sleeping with them." ***** "I'd like to apply for a visa." "I'm sorry, but your transcript shows you majored in Marxism." "So...I can't go to America?" "No, they don't trust your kind 'round there." "But Obama just got elected!" "Chairman Obama is not a Marxist. He's a Trotskyist. There is a difference. When you want to go to America, get a major in Trotskyism." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
