Make the World Safe...

President O’Thomas and his advisor Mr. O’Ellis recently had the following conversation:

Prez O’Thomas: O’Ellis, we need to make the world safe for kids burning themselves on fires, stoves, etc.

Advisor O’Ellis: Sir, do you mean we have to protect kids from fires and stoves?

Prez O’Thomas: Certainly not! Quite the contrary. We have to make the world safe so kids can burn themselves.

Advisor O’Ellis: Sir, it is the wisdom of the ages that parents should protect their young ones against fire. They have done so from time immemorial.

Prez O’Thomas: It is old. Hence, it is evil. It is not wisdom. We need progress.

Advisor O’Ellis: Sir, things do change. We now have stoves. So parents protect their young ones against these.

Prez O’Thomas: It is the concept that is old. It is thus bad and evil. It must be done away with.

Advisor O’Ellis: Sir, what do we do?

Prez O’Thomas: We need to make kids safe from their parents. We have to go to war to make the world safe for kids burning themselves.

Advisor O’Ellis: Sir?

Prez O’Thomas: Yes, O’Ellis?

Advisor O’Ellis: Didn’t you once say that liberty does not come from government, but from subjects of government?

Prez O’Thomas: Yes, that’s why we need to involve the subjects through war.

Advisor O’Ellis: Very good point, sir!

Prez O’Thomas: And that’s why we need to create real subjection.

Advisor O’Ellis: Sir?

Prez O’Thomas: Since liberty comes from subjects of government, we need real subjects of government. Only then we can have real liberty.

Advisor O’Ellis: Excellent point, sir!

Prez O’Thomas: Thank you!

Advisor O’Ellis: What do we call this war?

Prez O’Thomas: The war to make the world safe for kids’ play!

Advisor O’Ellis: What do we tell Congress?

Prez O’Thomas: That we need to free kids from parental subjection.

Advisor O’Ellis: You are brilliant, sir!

Prez O’Thomas: I know! I am the President!
