Dispatches for the Colonial Office
But Mom, All the Cool Kids are into Genocide!
“Students! Be the Fuhrer’s Propagandists!”
**** poster ca. 1933, per Library of Congress: [Studenten seid

All the cool kids are into genocide
Slogans and posters and bullhorns and cries
Abandoning their studies to march outside
And scream the same 2,000-year-old lies
The InterGossip commands, and they obey
Blocking the streets and clenching each fist
Waving misspelt signs and yelling all day
Never pausing to ask if there’s something they’ve missed
Am I a hollow echo for some sycophant’s squall?
Will I fail to think for myself at all?

Think. Don't obey. Think.
