Characterize politics in terms of Harry Potter or Game of Thrones

Anti-Trumpers do it too. American politics have gone off the deep end and I worry we'll follow suit.

And our former Prime Minister was Harry Potter.

cringe and bluepilled

Orwell was an Anarcho-Communist that fought for the International Brigade against the nationalists in the Spanish civil war who hated Bolsheviks and Stalinism.

He died a full socialist dude. Its a shame rightist in america are so starved for intellectuals they engage graved robbing. I see this a lot with libertarians in particular.

Actually Orwell held Lenin in high esteem.

I remember duck dynasty themed protest when obama was president from right wingers. Hard to say which was worse.

no we usually compare them to older politicians
like renzi and berlusconi, salvini and mussolini, etc...

He literally fought Soviet-backed communist party members is Spain.

it doesn’t matter what he was retard, the book is clearly a criticism of totalitarianism

I think we have had Handmaid Tale protestors but they are paid and handled by Americans. Eguality is not really issue here.

>it doesn’t matter what he was retard
How so? The man's politics clearly inform the work. These conservatives misrepresent or in some cases outright try to rewrite Orwell's statements.

GEORGE ORWELL
PROUD NRA MEMBER
GUN ON WORKERS SHED

>GRUMPF IS LITERALLY HITLER, CNN TOLD ME SO! HE SAYS THE NEWS IS LYING HES LIKE SAYING LUGENPRESSE OMG
>HE TOTALLY SAVED KOREA FROM NUKING EVERYTHING TO SHIT BUT HE DOESNT DESERVE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE, OBAMA DID THOUGH FOR BEING BLACK XDD
>RACE ISNT REAL BUT YOURE A PRIVLEDGED WHITE MALE

Because the book is not in any way an advocation of socialism nor does it even broach the topics of economics
Leftists just lile to smugly say “well, ACTUALLY Orwell was a communist so you cant use 1984 if you’re right wing”
which completely ignores the subject matter of the book.

Are you implying right wingers ever read any of Orwell's works?

So the book essentially condemns totalitarianism. Do you deny right wingers then make the leap to saying its anti socialist? Leftist are rightfully smug to say they are wrong then.

t. big state fetishist

orwell was a socialist but criticized the perversions of stalinism and totalitarism in general
1984 is much more inspired by stalinism than nazism
you don't have to be fucking einstein to understand that
btw "using" a satirical dystopian novel to say something is retarded anyway

They look like totally normal people

literally what is wrong with this picture

normal people don't wear political billboards

They're obviously on a rally or something

America is full of brainlets.
Noone in my country would do something that dumb except maybe some 17 year old idiots who don't know any better. Luckily those can't vote yet and I trust in the rest of society to tell them how childish it is to compare real life to some shitty fiction.

What kind of normal 18 years old spend their days attending the "I want to take revenge on my ex and her nigger bf" party rally?

On an unrelated note, doesn't it take 3 generations for a family who immigrated to Switzerland to be eligible to vote?

no :D that shit is fucking cringe

What kind of normal 40+ year olds spend their days saying November is coming and that they "won't be silent"?

Harry Potter is by fucking far the most goddamn annoying and overrated book series of all time.

It's literally for fucking 10 year old shut the fuck up and read a different book you spastics.

Social outcasts most likely.

>characterize politics in terms of a fucking frog comic

Not being silent seems pretty normal as far as political slogans are concerned. Am I missing anything?

and how is "Make America Great Again" not?

Being 18 and associating yourself with a bunch of angry racist boomers is not really healthy or normal.

All political activists are cringy 2bh I wouldn't want to be friends with anyone who takes politics too serious

No. If you immigrated or are the child of immigrants you can take a citizenship test.
They ask questions about the political system and how it works, you have to be able to speak one of our four national languages and then they ask you some specific questions concerning your swiss home town.
So you don't habe to wait that long

>angry racist boomers
Baby boomers are the reason why the USA is so multicultural you fucking dolt. They employ them for cheap labor and are nationalists in an economic sense, not a racial one
Most of them are also hardcore Christians, who support immigration here so as long as they "get along with God" or whatever

>whataboutism
Yeah this conversation is definitely going places

K-kekistani 4ever

Doesn't take away the fact that #teamTrump is nothing but angry white dudes in their 50s and their bullied children that want to feel in power for the last time.

>m-m-more racist than you grandpa!

I thought there were only three languages; Italian, German and French. Do you speak English as well?

this, political activists are stupid and useful idiots
real politicians are cynical and disillusioned

Albanian is the 4th

Yes you're right I should be a biased pseud instead
You didn't answer my original question and you're just projecting racism onto them, for no fucking reason. What's the point of conversing with you if you just spout "lol they're all angry racists"
White people haven't been in power of America since like the 20s

how can an illegal even get roll in a school in the first place?

If racism isn't involved why does Democrats vs Republicans seem to follow racial lines so clearly?
>We're not racist we love niggers!

yes
being an english speaking country makes your population incredibly impressionable

Blacks like welfare, Whites do not
>you're the racist even though I only think in terms of race
If you're just going to reply to me as a springboard for your shitty opinions instead of refuting what I have to say, fuck off

Because based state rights prevent schools from asking about federal citizenship.

The fourth official language is Rumantsch.
However, it's not a language you hear often since it's kind of a dying language. The only places where you might hear it are rather secluded villages.
Most Swiss speak German, Italian or French

You have nothing to say. You just refer to a question that was rhetorical as hell and now pretend like I'm the idiot here despite being a Trump voter yourself lmao

Why would you lie weedbro?

I'm not a Trump voter. I hate Trump, because he's a Zionist puppet.

Oh, so a legacy then.

How far can you get living with just English? How many of the languages can the average Swiss speak?

based and redpilled

Oh wow
Kind of a dickmove from her to cheat on you

Indeed, it is one of the dullest franchises in the history of movie franchises. Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody, just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

Do yourself a favour and learn German, Italian or French espacially if you plan to live here longer.
You might get by in places like Zurich or Geneva with only English but as soon as you leave the cities it's a different story.
Also especially of you plan to live here longer it's only polite to at least have a basic understanding of the language. Also keep in mind most Swiss don't know all 3 big languages. Depending where you want to stay, you should learn the "dominant" language.

>DA JOOOOOOOS
You have to go back.

Why exactly is LoTR considered "shit-tier"?

If you don't like the high fantasy genre then that's one thing, but within the high fantasy genre LoTR seems to be a rather top-tier literary work.

Everyone is, actually

>Atlas Shrugged god tier
>The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn shit tier
> Ulysses and The Sound and the Fury not God Tier

This needs a little work, bro.

Nope, they use batman
>hurr durr there is a joker to the west

I wouldn’t put it in god tier with the best novels humankind has created, but it deserves much better than shit tier.

Cersei is actually pretty based.

Atlast Shrugged is shit did Jow Forums made this list

this is /lit/ meme
