Reform

HyperTree is a hyper tree-hugger. And considering that a greedy capitalist somewhere is getting richer every time you refuse to hug a tree, you my dear reader better be one too. Sometimes, HyperTree wishes it could also be a blog hugger; for it yearns to hug this cute blog: HTOHL. HTOHL is a blog with an incisively emotional take on issues facing the nation while bravely standing up to the imperialist blog-cartel; a group of shadowy bourgeois elite who would like to impose a suffocating hegemony where people are not free to test the boundaries of logical fallacies and where coherence and consistency become not cute guidelines but a fascist necessity, and where innocent bloggers cry every morning they get out of bed at the mere thought of living under such fascism.

I however take exception to this post in this otherwise excellent blog. The post starts off by asking the question, “But why are we reforming?”. I feel this is already falling into the devious trap set by the fascist capitalists. The question we should be asking is, “But why are we not throwing the reformers into jail?”. This I feel would set the bar at the place it should be: on the jail-cells of the incarcerated imperialists.

Come to think of it, even the word “reform” is unacceptable. Can the brutal yanking of the economic reins from innocent government by rapacious businessmen be considered “reform”? Do we want to call “reform”, the stealing of candy from innocent ten-year old kids whose tree has just been cut down; by big burly businessmen with twirling moustaches?
Sigh, much work has to be done, comrades, much work.
