Communism killed 100 million people and all I got was this lousy t‐shirt.
(Beneath is a small stencil of Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara’s face, even though some anticommunists argue that people should be deeply offended by clothing that has it.)
Well, considering that communism didn’t do that, you’re gonna have to give the shirt back.
communism didn’t do that
your saying communism DIDNT kill over 100 million straight white capitalist men??? HOLY SH*T thats WORSE then holocaust denial!!! (which incidentalley has less evidance to support it then communisms death count…)
This would work so much better with capitalism instead. Like put “Capitalism killed…x millions(Who knows how many - who’s even keeping count anymore? Can you just imagine how much poverty is directly caused by neoliberal policy? The number is unimaginable to me…) and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.” It would be a really fucked up meta joke because the shirt was made in a sweatshop.
Oh and for the picture I’m thinking either Milton Friedman or Ronald Reagan - what do you guys think?
The scores of millions of deaths that capitalists and other anticommunists have caused is something that I take seriously and would prefer not to see on merchandise. There are more tasteful ways to increase awareness.
POV: you’re talking to someone who hasn’t read a book since 2006
I remember once wearing a shirt to a food service job sold by The Onion, it was che guevara wearing a che guevara shirt lmao. It’s meant to be a joke, a commentary.
My bosses dad, a right winger, American #1 type was ready to fire me on the spot. His face was so red when saw my shirt lmao. Even though I explained the obvious joke, the whole night he would randomly bust my balls, it was actually kind of funny how worked up he got.
Lmao, anyone else notice they start to screech, scream and bark like rabid dogs with smoke going through their ears as soon as you even mention something even slightly anti-American, let alone communism, Stalin, Mao etc. Like they completely lose control like a bull when you show him colour red, and then they start with curse words, slurs ,threats etc. And of course, if it goes a few minutes too far, to defend nazis at rapid speed…
