The City Limits of Their-Topia

Bob Dylan To Receive Medal of Freedom
The word utopia (Gk. 'ou' = no, 'topos' = place) literally means "no where."

Thus, "Their-Topia" means "their place", which Bob Dylan has been singing about for 5 decades.

He will receive the Medal of Freedom at the White House.

The right-wing has never liked Bob Dylan because he exposes them, which is why we feature his work a lot here on Dredd Blog.

We haven't stopped even though we have been accused of being stuck in the sixties (e.g. War Is The Highway 61 Of The 1%, Happy Birthday Bob Dylan, Bob Dylan's New "Non-Mystical" Album).

The antithesis of Dylan's work is the work of Ayn Rand: Patron Saint of The Plutocracy (a.k.a. Patron Saint of Their-Topia), so I am glad the Medal of Freedom is being awarded to Mr. Bob Dylan, instead of the poet laureate of MOMCOM.

The lyrics to this song are here.
