Manifestoon - The Communist Manifesto illustrated by Disney like characters.
Manifestoon is an homage to the latent subversiveness of cartoons. Though U.S. cartoons are usually thought of as conveyors of capitalist ideologies of consumerism and individualism, Drew observes: "Somehow as an avid childhood fan of cartoons, these ideas were secondary to a more important lesson—that of the 'trickster' nature of many characters as they mocked, outwitted and defeated their more powerful adversaries. In the classic cartoon, brute strength and heavy artillery are no match for wit and humor, and justice always prevails. For me, it was natural to link my own childhood concept of subversion with an established, more articulate version [Marx and Engels' Communist Manifesto]. Mickey running over the globe has new meaning in today's mediascape, in which Disney controls one of the largest concentrations of media

  • It seems interesting though that around the world where there's revolution it's communist, or socialist, revolution. The Venezuelan socialists reversed a stranglehold held on South America by the US for a century.

  • @Commiton

  • No other system of government ever killed so many of it's own citizens as Communist Russia. 135 million MINIMUM. They starved 10 million in Russia in just 1 year(1932)

    Watch the documentary "Monster; Stalin & Mind Control". Also watch the interview with ex KGB Russian, Yuri Bezemov, who is featured in the :Just Doing His Job" vid reply above.

  • "The Communist Manifesto" is not Communism. This video like WP:OR.

  • that is because people have abused it because of human nature. one example is china, the say they ave communist rule. yet why are so many services in china privately owned. why are some people very rich and some very poor? it is situations like this the have driven Communism and Marxism so far apart

  • The concept of property is an interesting

    discussion in itself. Intellectual, creative

    property of the mind, freedom of thought

    even before expression is of great interest

    to me. My hero? Bugs Bunny.

  • Communism only looks good on paper... not one person could be trusted with the power it holds.
