Anti-fascists Against Fun (on the Dancefloor!)

A message from Rabbi Robbie the Blink and Shyster Wieselstool of the Irgun Appreciation Society/Community Defence Team/Defamation Anti-Goy Trust:

Oy Voy already!

We're thinking of suing the entire pop music industry for emotional and psychological damage. Not to mention reparations for some manual work a great great uncle once had to do (oh the suffering!).

Imagine our shock.

A report from Dave Spart of the Anti-racist/Anti-fascist Marxist-Lennonist anti-McCarthy/McCartney League for Democracy and Collectivisation:

I'm looking at a mid 1960s record (for younger viewers, they were large black vinyl discs, for readers with tartan blankets on their legs they came after the wax cylinders...). It was a compilation no less of all the latest bands in the charts (hey! groovy!)

So I starting reading through all the dance crazes of the era - helpfully listed on the cover of the aforesaid long playing vinyl record.

I remember the birdie song, the dying fly, the grape pressers' stomp, the pogo, the foxtrot, the military quickstep and all the other dances to dust off at an embarrassed cousin's wedding, but what were these dances?

The locomotion. Oh yes. Very cringeworthy.

The twist. Of course. Many's the uncle with a slipped disc over that one after the speeches...

The chicken back. Hmmm. Not sure... always been more one for the chicken leg or wing myself, with a few crisps and a sausage roll, but sounds great.

The drunkard. OK. One definitely for the end of the night - perhaps lurching betwixt lampposts on the eternal search for the taxi of deliverance?

The Popeye. Now it's getting weirder... and potentially stereotypical against minorities.

The bounce. That'd be handy to learn for when being thrown through the doors by outraged bouncers after another Auntie helps herself to the gin dispenser.

But what's this at the bottom?

The Hitler!?!??

Oh yes! A wee sieg heiling fuhrer is there on the LP cover! Imagine doing that dance at your cousin's wedding evening soiree!

So come on. Heebs of the world unite. The workers' struggle starts here. Let us rid the dance floors of wedding parties across the land of this reactionary anti-workers, anti-Semite "dance" and make hotels and conference centres across the world safe for Zionists and Lenninsparts alike.
