Isn't this a bit of an irony, i've seen them in edinburgh but thought it was stupid to fund multinationals making mony out of communism.

It could make people wonder what the symbol means and wake a certain interest in our strugle and goals.
Besides... you are not going to find a shirt that wasn't made by exploited workers.

True, well actually you could get one that wasn't made in a sweatshop..... But anyway, the point reamins these shirts mock the socialist cause.

Riiight. Good luck kid, showin' off at yer freakshow parade. The hammer and the sickle is not meant to be a symbol to shock, fool, it is a symbol of love and sympathy to the proletars of our society, but obviously you don't think of it as in that way! More as a shock-value thing because we live in a bigoted right-leaning world. BAH! This is falling low :angry:

(P.S. The "CCCP" was a ice-hockey team for the 'reds in Soviet..always perfectionistic, perfomance-driven....what a jib! Those totalarian fools and their forced labor, also in sports. Look where that got us, we must have the worlds worst reputation as an ideology. That's probably why you show off, to make them hate you for fun?)

Getting shirts with communist symbols is a catch-22.

On one hand you are propagating the message, on the other you are helping out capitalists. But I say if you are gonna get a shirt ANYWAY, why not get one with you ideology on it?

Back before my brother became a dumb fuck, while he was still a member of che-lives he bought that same shirt from the Northern Sun catalog. Now it is mine, I&#39;m going to wear it to school when school starts again for me, I hope to start a lot of controversy also.
