It’s about Jesus and whether or not he would be a socialist today. Some highlights are “Jesus was tortured and executed by the state. So to avoid that happening again, we should…vote for the pro-statist left? Huh? I guess you’ve never heard of China, Cuba, the Soviet Union, or any of those other countries that have existed on the planet with you.” and “This confusion of totalitarianism belief systems can partially be blamed on young adult books. There’s some sad affliction of my generation that kids are continuing to pick them up later and later—say, into their twenties, embarrassingly enough—so that Jennifer Lawrence’s tits on a poster can keep kids from reading Orwell and Huxley for years. To paraphrase Chuck Palahniuk, “pop science as a coping mechanism” has eclipsed any actual historical knowledge as a pastime for young people. The Giver and The Hunger Games are the defining political works of these kids’ lives. These kids don’t have a Marxist phase until much later in life than our parents did, and it takes them longer to get past it.”
