As it is a tie then I shall have to do what I was dreading and cast the deciding vote... and I am torn between 04 and 05 (as more members wanted a change than to stay with the current one).
If I vote 05 it would be because A) it is inclusive of all M-L trends (Maoist, Hoxhaist, basic Marxism-Leninism, Ho Chi Minh thought etc) and B) unlike various images of people it is more universal... it represents all M-Ls throughout history rather than just the, obviously, very important Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, it also honours the people in the USSR who fought in the GPW in defence of the USSR and of course Marxism-Leninism.
That and the 05 faction seem to be dedicated and are holding a load of fwuffy bunnies hostage.
As for 04, points in its favour is that more M-Ls wish to have the faces of Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin and they were the main creators and continuers of Marxist-Leninist thought. Also on a personal note, I voted to have Stalin included on the group image when it was only Marx, Engels and Lenin as like it or not Stalin is an important figure in our movement and thus differentiates us from other ideologies. Although I have counted his vote (as he was a member and ideally should still be a member) The Old Man from Scene 24 is no longer around leaving only three remaining in camp 05. It is also a well made image and also shows we don't care about the silly "cult of the personality" claims thrown at us by Left-Coms and such.
Hmm....
I hope no one if too "miffed" but I shall vote....
dah-dah-dah
