The Martyr Donkey
(from _The Anarcho-Syndicalist Handbook of Revised Parables, Folk Tales, and
Received Wisdom_)
for William and Langston
Placed between two equal piles of hay by an Establishment Parabalist, the
Principled Donkey refused to participate, and starved himself to death.
Thus proving that the donkey was an ass.
A sensible anarcho-syndicalist equine would, of course, have eaten both
piles of hay.
Moral: Don't try to discover how long in the tooth a gift horse is by
sticking your fingers in its mouth.
