A Webb Log not a Red Blog

While doing research for this blog, I thought it wise to Wikipedia myself. From this searching I discovered that Sam Webb is a name I share with the current leader of Communist Party USA. Let me be clear in saying that I am not that Sam Webb, nor am I in anyway a communist.

Sure, I love The Hunt for Red October as much as anybody, and I occasionally wear red, but rest assured that I love capitalism. I eat at McDonald's, shop at Walmart, obey the collective will of the bourgeois, because I'm a patriot. Like every one of you, I toil, happily serving those who have more than I, as a member of the working class. And though my hands tire and my back aches, I, like all of you, comrades, know my place in the freedom that is democracy.

How foolish to confuse me with a man who sees that equality will only be reached through class struggle, that we as workers can and must unite to break our chains and defeat our profiteering overlords! What nonsense, that I, along with my fellow proletariat, would see that we are united with a single heart beat, the heart of the people. A people who will rise and bring order to this world, dispersing all to the masses, so that we may do away with classes and wealth and poverty and live united!

Rise, my brothers! Rise and be heard! May we cry as one voice, "I am not a communist!" Only when we open our eyes and see that we as the workers have the power can we take control and say, "No, that's some other dude, why are you reading my blog? I'm an incredibly sarcastic college student, not some old guy from Maine who has a two paragraph Wikipedia page".

This is the cry of the people, comrades, and they demand to be heard.
