American Thinker: Cult of Personality at the People's Cube

American Thinker: cult of personality at the People's Cube up 90% compared to the previous Five-Year Plan.

Show me where Stalin is buried and I'll show you a Communist Plot

Michael Geer

You can pretend to be serious; you can't pretend to be witty.
-- Sacha Guitry

It's the language of agitprop. The constant crisis. Visual agitation and spoken agitation. And it's not by accident. And this process requires the cult of personality. Oleg spoke of the unending surreal panorama of Brezhnev. On posters, walls, busts, statuary, you name it. Call to mind Saddam, Chavez, Lenin, Mao and you know what he means. Wherever you went, the Party and its Cult Figure were ever-present. Those creating Obama's posters and symbols apparently studied Soviet agitprop. They're aching to saturate America with Obama's likeness, and that's right out of the playbook of symbolism over substance, or, the necessary cult of personality since the left is devoid of substance.

And here I thought that it was all about MY cult of personality. Oh well, better luck next Sunday morning. You have our kind permission to sit down.

NOTE TO SELF: Devise a brilliant plan to manipulate mass media into saturating America with my likeness on posters, walls, busts, and statuary, creating an unending surreal panorama of my heroic public image through unquestioning flattery and praise.
 

good job, Comrade Red Square!!

SALUTE!
 

Wencel Ebats from American Thinker comments

Oleg DID assist the murderous USSR in duping and oppressing its own people.
He says this like its a bad thing. Very curious.


 

 

Glorious Red Square! Supplier of my opiate! You are my hero. (Or one of them, anyway. There's still the Obamessiah.)

But I'd gladly get down on my hands and knees to pick garbage out of your path, like Halle Berry.

Quote:

"I'll do whatever he says to do," actress Halle Berry said to the Philadelphia Daily News. "I'll collect paper cups off the ground to make his pathway clear."

Quote:

"He walks into a room and you want to follow him somewhere, anywhere," George Clooney told talk show host Charlie Rose.


Yes, I'd even do like George Clooney and follow you into the men's room--if the women's was closed for cleaning and I had to go bad enough.
 

A quote from comrade Oleg lands like acid on leathery skin:

'America is progress for mankind.'

In one of the native tongues of presumptive Dear Leader: What up with that, home boy?

Is this double agent speak with clever meaning, or Kapitalist Kool-Aid intoxication? As you have patiently taught, mankind's only hope for progress is Barry the Bolshevik. How you can speak such heresy of American fast food pie in sky. And to speak it in subversive enclave with audacious title American Thinkers? It confuses an old woman eager to witness the true Amerikan revolution toward which we have toiled since the 1960s.
 

I struggle every day when I walk past one of our glorious local progressive hippie hang-out coffee houses. There is a tremendous battle going on inside of me. They have an Obama poster in the window, the one that reads, HOPE. I am at war trying to decide whether to add the suffix -less one dark and stormy night. Or do I add funny glasses, goofy facial hair, and horns? Which is more progressive? If it was lower to the ground, I could just let my dogs pee on it.

The seriously non-progressive Bill Bennett dares to refer to Amerikkka as the world's last best hope. I'm sure Obama doesn't mean the same thing when he uses the word.
 

Comrade Ghost, surely you intended to invoke the Cone of Silence or Karakter Off before taunting the Annointed One? Public Education officials are even now arriving at your home to escort you to your re-education. Pack some warm clothes.

Glorious Leader, Center of the Red Star of the People, Bright Hope of Change - Red Square, you are Lenin's gift to the masses. I kneel before your wisdom, your insight, your knowledge. I join Commissarka Pinkie in groveling shamelessly in your general direction. I will not only pick up paper cups and garbage and sanitary napkins blocking your path, I will chew them into a pulpy mass and recycle them into cocktail napkins for use by Republikans.

As he so artfully stated, cult of personality is a very important element in maintaining a healthy collective:


 

Is this the same picture they show during broadcasts of Beijing Olympiada, as noted by a comrade on another thread here?

ConservativeMuzhelozhstvo

...did anybody see Chairman Mao looking over Bob Costas' shoulder this evening?
 

What is not so clear to ugly Amerikkkans who only speak one language, is the sign on the image above which reads "The People's Cat House - 99 Ugly Broads, 1 Babe. Feeling Lucky?"

Comrade Tongue,
You must be a party approved psychic. Early this morning an Obama representative did encourage me to improve my views and bring them more in line with current progressive Obama-worshiping thought, while mentioning that I could be subject to a partial post-birth abortion, which Obama will fight hard to make legal.

Indeed it is the same picture, Most Observant One. I arranged a deal to get display time for my humble image alternate Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Marshal, is this not the same business model that has driven the Pup's Pleasure Palace to such heights of economic success? The same strategy that delivers successful 5-minute plans on an hourly basis? Although, while I might be partial, I believe we have better customer service...

Great Stalin's Ghost

Good to hear you are still with us, Comrade Ghost. As Friedrich Nietzsche wrote, "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." You are lucky to have lived to continue your Struggle, those post-post-post birth abortions are most unpleasant.

What? You call this living? The wife! The kids! The job! The neighbors! Why, if it wasn't for the glorious people's party, I'd have no life at all.
 

The Party IS life. Life IS the Party...
