Only Fascists Have an Opinion

by Ben Atlas on Jun 10, 2009 - 07:26 · 5 comments

If you have an opinion you are a fascist. A strongly formulated view is subjective and doesn’t take into account all possible permutations of reality, therefore any opinion is ideological and people who dare to have one must be locked up.

But there is a way to circumvent this culture. Have a poll or a survey. Rig the questions accordingly and voila you got yourself a freaking objective slice of reality. Ladies and Gentleman, start your twittering engines! No longer a fascist because a) this is now a science; b)you didn’t say it, someone else did. No one is offended and you can even report on the most noncontroversial and PC parts of the survey. How did we ever get along without the surveys?
