Well if coffee pots have a social conscious perhaps it is coming to realize that caffeine is yet one more tool used by capital to oppress labor.  After all, it keeps the workers energetic and productive during the hours they are required to toil for inadequate wages, but at a cost not simply to the economic well-being of the masses and to the health and contemplation.  Plus let us not ignore that all the contrived rituals associated with coffee consumption serve as replacement for the religion that many of the more aware proletariat are shunning.

The next time there is one of these urban protests, it should not be McDonalds that is the target of all the ire.  Rather Starbucks and its ilk should be ransacked and their barristas steamed by their own espresso machines.

That does bring to mind the question of why some workers such as the aforementioned barristas are willing assistants in their own exploitation?

That communism has failed is a bourgeois myth.  It has unfortunately been sabotaged by reactionary forces who rightly fear that if the proletariat were to gain proper class consciousness they would be sent to their guillotines for their crimes against poors.  That is why the dictatorship of the people had been thought essential, yet the cunning running dogs have so far managed to subvert such dictatorships for their own purposes and thus promote the mistaken belief that communism has failed.  Thus we can see that despite our strong desire for communism in our time we cannot rush the historical dialectic and must realize that we must wait until the world-wide proletariat has proper class consciousness before attempting to implement communism.

Will the internets prove to be a means of raising class consciousness, or are things such as facial book a new opiate being fed to the masses?
