What a pair of self-marginalizing slogans, guaranteed to attract about 0.5% of the population and repel over 90%. Why not some that could actually build a movement? "Free health care! End college tuition! Child care for all! No more foreign wars!" Etc.

Oh, right: "Those who object to it or quibble about monsters are not part of the intended audience." A very tiny circle jerk, in other words.
