There’s a socialism Monopoly game, and a Rutgers history professor is melting about it

This is the cuckold doing it. (They always look the same)

I bought a copy of Hasbro's mean-spirited and woefully ill-informed "MONOPOLY: SOCIALISM" board game so you don't have to - a thread 1/

From the tagline "Winning is for capitalists" we can see right away that this game is not going to be friendly to whatever it deems "socialism" to be. Because as we all know "socialists" never play sports or participate in any sort of competitive activity, like board games. 2/
quote:
The player tokens include a typewriter, an old-timey phone, a pocket watch, a phonograph, and a CRT television set, presumably because "socialism" is so incredibly outdated? 4/
quote:
Spaces on the board include a snarkily named hospital and school, because apparently schools are supposed to produce losers and hospitals are only supposed to help some of the people. 5/
quote:
There are also tons of references to health food and veganism, despite the lack of any clear connection to socialism, apparently because what they share in common is that they are odious things that are fun to mock. 6/
quote:
It's also crucial to mock environmentalism because, haha, as we all know environmentalism is stupid and hilarious. 7/
quote:
It goes without saying that this game is entirely uninterested in trying to understand what socialism actually is and how it might function. 8/

Continuing to demonstrate why the left cannot meme.
Without a sense of humor (because every...single...fricking...thing...is...offensive), memeing is impossible.

Hasbro thanks him for giving them his money.

I wonder if they have a card that says, "go to the Gulag, directly to the Gulag...."

I just came here to post this!! This entire thread and the guy’s absolute self awareness made me so happy I joined Twitter.
My favorite self own by this moron:
Seriously dude. One word for you. Venezuela.

quote:
For example, there is a community fund, and if a player doesn't have enough money to pay for something, the community fund automatically pays the difference. Which seems kinda socialist at first glance
But the community fund is gleefully and deliberately designed to be constantly running out of money. At this point, the only way to fill it back up and keep the game going is for players to donate money to it voluntarily.
Seriously dude. One word for you. Venezuela.

My sister, who is so liberal she can barely visit the south, went to Rutgers and was eventually ostracized because she wasn't liberal enough.
