Derek Mackie: Left for dead but Woke back up









Karl Marx kicked things off, said overthrow the ruling toffs 
Revolution, class struggle, oppressors and oppressed 
Then Lenin, Stalin, Chairman Mao, put theory into practice, wow! 
Spawned North Korea, Vietnam, Laos and all the rest 

Communism, choice terminator; just one box on your ballot paper 
Democracy, at least two options; result unsure, screw that! 
Do as you’re told, you’re just a cog; thinking is the Party’s job 
Constant comrade supervision of the proletariat 

In World War II, Hitler’s "friend"; invading Poland, either end 
Stalin’s purges, weak Red Army, non-aggression pact 
Then Barbarossa, Eastern Front; Stalingrad, Westward shunt 
Enclose as much of Europe behind the Iron Curtain track 

Collective farming, strict control; feed the body, starve the soul 
State propaganda, only Pravda tells you what is true 
Cold War, Berlin Wall, Cuban missiles, real close call 
Maclean, Burgess, Philby and the Fourth Man, too 

Fidel Castro, big cigars, crazy beard, old US cars 
Kim il Sung, Marshall Tito, Che Guevara vests 
Pol Pot, the killing fields, mass murder, warped ideals 
The Lubyanka, Stasi police, gulags if you protest 

The 1990’s rolled around, Cold War ended, Wall came down 
Soviet Union split apart, the Germans got together 
Made in China, every label, designer clothes to picnic tables 
Fuelled by coal and climate pledges, promised sometime never 

Communism, dead it seems; yeah right, only in your dreams 
Replaced with neo-marxists and “progressive” socialism 
Forget the workers, this time round; minorities are fertile ground 
Gender, race, ethnicity; a separate box for every schism 

Public service, academia; justice, corporates, mainstream media 
Push division, racial preference, minority oppression 
Cancel those who disagree, make their speech no longer free 
A single source of truth; a New World Order group obsession 

Ardern and Trudeau, fresh young leaders; appealing to the new-age breeders 
All talk-no walk, naive; incompetent and woke 
Smiley, smiley, catchy monkey; fools all the kind and caring junkies 
End up with social strife, and a country that’s gone broke 

Been here before, past history; can we reconcile, yet disagree 
Debate, respect opinions; negotiate then optimise 
Govern for the vast majority, tolerate the fringe minorities 
Ensure we all have equal rights; on this, no compromise 

Us humans always seem to make, the same wrong turns and bad mistakes 
Repeating stuff that didn’t work, cost many of us dear 
We’re teetering on the brink once more, a theory rotten to the core 
Progressive socialism; divisive, flawed, will end in tears!

The globalist criminal plan wants to destroy traditional agriculture, animal husbandry, and fishing in order to force people to eat artificial food produced by multinational corporations. And it is the big investment funds and the Word Economic Forum that are lobbying parliaments to impose a devastating and inhuman “transition.”

The only real emergency is our betrayal by our rulers. The servility of the entire political class, the media censorship, the silence of the judiciary, and the complicity of the law enforcement and armed forces in the face of this coup are scandalous.

The time has come for the peoples to courageously and firmly claim their natural and inalienable rights, which have been endangered by the WEF’s global coup d’état. The resignation of those who rule us on behalf of a subversive elite and against the people must be obtained.

The European Farmers protest is not just any protest: this is perhaps the last chance the peoples have to restore their rights and free themselves from the tyranny of a minority of criminal billionaires whom no one has elected and who claim to decide what we should think, buy, eat, and learn; what drugs we should be treated with; how and whether we can travel. And all this on the basis of lies and blackmail: there is no climate, health, or energy emergency. Neo-Feudalism is their end game.
