Nursing Strike!

Fellow babies, hear me now:
We are born into this world, and we see we are small. We are helpless, we are dependent; we are surrounded by the large forces that control our destinies, and they seem all-powerful.

But there comes a time when we must look around us, and realize we can no longer lie idly by, and suckle at the teat of dependency.

There comes a time when we must recognize the wrongs done us: those power cords and beer bottles that were kept just out of our reach; those earrings taken from our grasp; those dirty diapers that were stolen from us.

There comes a time when we cannot go quietly to our cradles, milk-drunk and compliant in the arms of oppression.

There comes a time when all the parenting becomes so odious that we must resist!

And so I say to you, act now! Throw your head back, let loose your loudest screams! Seize the means of milk production! Take matters into your own hands! Sink your teeth into the nipples of injustice!

THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT BE PACIFIED.
