The revolution will be televised, franchised, and syndicated.

Dedicated to every Che, Castro, Chavez, Marx and Mao loving moron that has ever stood close enough to steal my oxygen. This one's for you, you mouth breathers.

In your revolution, everyone will have free health care;
In mine, the state will no longer lay claim to your life as its investment.
In your revolution, everyone will be protected from hate speech;
In mine, speech will be protected from everyone.

In your revolution, you will take from the rich to give to the poor;
In mine, they will both be left alone.
In your revolution, cultures will be preserved and cherished;
In mine, they will be free to develop or perish, as their value dictates.

In your revolution, you will seize the means of production;
In mine, we will free it.
In your revolution, you will nationalise education;
In mine, we will free it.
In your revolution, you will regulate the market;
In mine we will free it.

There is nothing in your revolution that could not be had in mine,
Those with desire are free to pursue.

Your revolution requires that the one lay down for the many,
Mine let's everyone stand.
Your revolution asks everything of me.
But mine asks nothing of you,
except that you leave me alone.
So tell me, who is the freedom fighter?
