Open Mic THURSDAY 17th SEPTEMBER + Political Caption Competition
POLITICAL FACT OF THE DAY:
Anti-suffragists once used ceramic cat figurines labeled “Votes for Women” to mock the movement by implying animals should vote too
POLITICAL QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“There are more ideas on earth than intellectuals imagine. And these ideas are more active, stronger, more resistant, more passionate than “politicians” think. We have to be there at the birth of ideas, the bursting outward of their force: not in books expressing them, but in events manifesting this force, in struggles carried on around ideas, for or against them. Ideas do not rule the world. But it is because the world has ideas (and because it constantly produces them) that it is not passively ruled by those who are its leaders or those who would like to teach it, once and for all, what it must think.”
― Michel Foucault
TDB POLITICAL HAIKU OF THE DAY:
Macklemore speaks out,
No state should silence dissent-
Free speech needs no leash
” No state should silence dissent-
Free speech needs no leash ” Yea, but that depends on what’s being said or perhaps more worryingly who’s being paid to say it.
