47. I heard this during the Goodwill Games in 1986
There are as many time zones between Moscow and the eastern coast of the former Soviet Union as there are between Moscow and LOS ANGELES! (that would be 11 if I recall correctly).

It should also be noted that the answers under the Communism column apply to communism as applied within the Soviet Union - and not to the general principles of communism as a whol. For example: Karl Marx did not say that people shouldn't question their government (at least not that I can recall, but I haven't studied communism since AP econ in high school).

15. That sucked.
Most of the pics sucked too, but it's the only version I could find from Billy Bragg. And he played around the original text, making it better, IMO.

17. Don't get an old Trotskyst wrong ...
The mix I've seen there had a few stalinist pics in it, and the hammer and sickle might now be great as a poster, but the history is perverted and gone. Makes a great T-Shirt, though. Or a fridge magnet. A nifty MySpace background ... :shrug:

18. Yeah, well...
I have one stalin pic, with him and lenin. The other I gave as a gift to someone. The hammer and sickle isn't a great poster, I wouldn't say. I'd say it still means something. At least in some places. It was always a powerful image, ad execs would love it if it wasn't, well, a hammer and sickle.

26. Revised Sermon on the Mount:
Blessed are those that are wealthy, because they have money;

Blessed are those who screw everyone else, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven;

Blessed are the conquerors, for they are cool.

Blessed is the person who wrote this down properly, and will re-post it when it becomes clear that this was not the original Sermon on the Mount;

Blessed are the vicous, for they will be filled with schadenfraude;

Blessed are the victorious, 'cos they aren't losers. heh. heh.

38. #1. Censored books for use in schools #2. Freedom from an employer
That's just two they got wrong. I mean, unless you want to argue that Texas public schools aren't part of capitalism, we have LOTS of censorship.

Everyone has an employer, even commies. The only difference is that in America you work for paycheck. In Soviet Union, paycheck work for YOU! (Oh wait, that one doesn't work).
