Your Culture Needs You.


This is one of the many recruiting posters devised for and on behalf of Her Excellency Mother Culture. The subtext reads:

If you join me in the glorious wage slave revolution, if you toe the line with only a minimum of acceptable questioning, if you agree that the privations attaching to the primitive persuasion are the due reward of the lower life forms, if you accept that the space between the tram lines as defined by me is the only proper place to subsist, if you follow my commands and conditioning at all times, and if your aspirations are limited to those which I say are worthy, then you, too, can have little glass ornaments to make your Christmas season all the more joyful.

I sometimes wonder how we got here.
