Rationale: !!!!My written task relates to Part 3 Literature:Texts and contexts-Katherine Mansfield. I’m composing a contemporary Skype argument between two youths, one is a capitalist and the other is a socialist about their ideologies and their respective every day attitudes and hobbies of life.!!A Skype conversation and the unique features of one is typical to the current generation. Most Skype conversations are very contemporary. I use allusions, metaphorical language, interruptions. In Skype conversations, it is possible to interrupt another person’s texts as normal social norms don’t apply. This allows you to change topics or distract the other person from talking about something that you don’t want to talk about. In addition, I allude to some organizations or ideas about the political positions of each of the debaters. For example, the fist with a flower on it alludes to the logo of the Socialist International organization. Whereas, the “guys in suits to ritually smile gayly while clapping to the beat of a boxing ring like seals” is a reference to the opening of the stock exchange. My text is a response to the changing political, social and cultural climate of socialist versus capitalist ideas. !!Since, Katherine Mansfield discusses the role and perception of women in her days. I have decided to discuss this aspect in my work. I bring this up by discussing the perception of Valentine’s Day by the two friends. The capitalist friend takes more of a privatization approach to women whereas the socialist friend takes more individualistic approach to women. I used contemporary vocabulary such as AP2P, yeah, dude, lemme, Jordans, billboard, Lamboginis, socially conscious rappers in order to discuss the poltical views under a contemporary context. !!281 Words!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Conversation !!M: Socialist friend!C: Capitalist friend!!Your profile picture a fist and a rose on it . . . Explain . . . !!Yeah, that is the logo of the!!don’t tell me its your AP2P stuff again!!Why do you hate the left so much?!!Socialists, they bad people… Che invaded Cuba, Americas couldn’t scubadive in cuban clubs for lunch. I got the new Jordans on the right side of my desk !!Why are you obsessed over a shoe.!!Diddy has them.!!Its just a shoe. . . Either-way, But Che allowed the Cubans to have lunch. And taste freedom. Expanded their domes, educated them from the corrupt ways of the Batista autocracy and Red-White-Blue.!!Dude, the americans only just went to clubs!!Which types?!!And gambled.!!with the locals lives and wives. Right, mr.right!!You hives of socialists, sweet like Honeybees!!we pollinate the powerless, you pollinate the powerful!!Fool, I’d love to get my hands on one of you idealists!!You would, if you could. Except this capitalist sheep with the Jordans next to him, staring at the Samsung TV waiting for some fdl…!!I only trade my stocks for an hour,!!and sipping Coca-cola with Lays chips and staring at Barbie pictures while listening to Opera. !!You such an idealistic!!If idealist means not spending an hour for choosing what clothes to wear and not prostituzing your life and mind to some grey haired petafiles. !

!Whatever…!!Dude, socialism is when you don’t be greedy and don’t try to lay your hands over every single dollar that you can !!No, socialism. Is when the lazy people get benifits from not working at all. Capitalism… is when a person gets benifits because he works hard…!!No, dude. Capitalism is when richer people are treated better than poorer people!!Cause rich people worked harder!!No, its because the richer people are exploitative of poor people. You don’t have to work hard to be rich. You just need to learn how to exploit. !!No, we don’t exploit. We just ! !Capitalists are cold, it all matters about money. If you cannot help to get money for them, than you are worthless hence the existence of corporations. !!Corporations can act ethically you know!!but its only for money!!Whatever… What did you do for Valentine’s day? !!I didn’t try to collect another women like their material objects. Or in your words, try to get women. Cause unlike you, I don’t treat women like dogs. I don’t try to persuade someone to go out with me just for the sake of social pressure on a day named after a mystical event on which a guy arranged weddings between people.!!Did you get anyone with a red shirt? Did she have a AP2P tattoo?!!Did you manage to pimp one of the women in that clapping ceremony every midnight? How was it staring at the stock exchanges the whole time?!!How was it talking about oppression?!!It was better than debating over which stock you should buy.!!Hahaha…you would never learn…. !!I do.. what do you like to do except buying stocks!!A lot of stuff, lemme think !!buying!!

don’t tell me buying jordans!listening!!don’t tell me listening to the billboard!!looking!!don’t tell me looking at Lamboginis!!Ahh… what do you like doing?!!listening!!don’t tell me listening to socially conscious rappers!!looking!!don’t tell me looking at movies about freedom!!reading!!don’t tell me reading the manifesto. !!Dude, I don’t read the manifesto all the time for fun.!!Yeah, sure you don’t. I only read it like once a week. !!Only once a week, !!like you don’t trade stocks for an hour every day.!!You guys tax way too much. By the way your probably the only socialist out there with such retarded philosophies!!our taxes are not used in corrupt ways, in ideal socialism the money goes back to the people. It doesn’t just go to make retarded buildings promoting patriotism like in capitalism. In capitalism, the poor people are treated really bad and the rich are the ones that are the ideals. Consider Iran…!!Another one of your retarded philosophy, the Iranian Shah was a fair ruler !!No, he wasn’t!!He was more fairer than the “revolutionaries” after him!!Who said that?!!The economist, CNN, Fox, my dad everyone!!

!The revolutionaries were meant to overthrow the cruel Shah of Iran. Who undemocratically took over the country via a coup…By the way, the Shah was a sick minded person kind of like the Mubarak regime of Egypt. The popular view doesn’t mean it is the best view. Remember man, there were times where the popular were wrong. Take a look at the Nazi populace.!!However, in those day, that populace was savage they were caveman. The populace nowadays are well-educated and think repetitively before making a decision. As a result, the majority is actually more correct than the minority who misunderstand what our politicians say. We don’t make any bad decisions. !!You sure. . . !!By the way, the Persian revolutionaries attacked the U.S embassy and took hostages. Look at argon !!But that was because U.S sponsored state terrorism by that government against its own people. By the way, didn’t you see random Iranian people were attacked at U.S well, so it was fair and square. The whole incident wouldn’t have to take place if the U.S didn’t sponsor Iran’s dictator. By the way, remember you don’t have a drop of Persian blood in you. So if I was you I won’t get your ignorant mouth into something that you don’t know what you’re talking about.!!I really wish that you could think normally!!I really wish you weren’t a sheep!!Word Count: 970 words
