    You Might Be A Communist IF:

    If you wear RED, you might be a communist.
    If you wear CLOTHES, you might be a communist.
    If you are NAKED, you might be a communist.
    If you are a PERSON, you might be a communist.

    If you do ALL of these things, you MUST be a communist!



    This is an actual documentary which actually aired in America during the 1950's

    Алаверды:

    Собаку Лайку отправили в космос, заранее зная, что она погибнет. После этого в ООН пришло письмо от группы женщин из штата Миссисипи. Они потребовали осудить бесчеловечное отношение к собакам в СССР и выдвинули предложение: если для развития науки необходимо посылать в космос живых существ, в нашем городе для этого есть сколько угодно негритят.

    They're funny, but they're not as absurdly outdated as you might think:

    Your Neighbour Is a Terrorist According to talkSport UK - YouTube

    That link contains an actual (real) ad to promote a government "anti-terrorism hotline" which was aired on a UK radio station in the last couple of years.

    Wow... that's sad. We would have to report ALL of our neighbors!

    Including ourselves!!

    They are seeing it right now.

    You might be a communist if you always whine in the workplace, trying to outdo your neighbour in acquiring material wealth, you always feel you are exploited even if you leave the workplace 1 minute before 5 pm, always go out for smoking break, very meticulous with your overtime pay, is hell bent on organizing a trade union despite earning 25 dollars an hour,etc., etc....

    I never met a communist who tried to "outdo his neighbor to acquire material wealth." That sounds more like a capitalist to me!
    As for leaving work one minute early? How is that significant?
    And as for whining about work.... doesn't everyone? LOL

    Heh..... you talk to me as if you think I have never worked in my life

    It's funny because I worked as a TV reporter for 15 years and also was a foreign correspondent in Russia. I don't need to be told how the system of "rewards" works in capitalism. That system is just as messed up as any other system because there is corruption, and corruption is always the problem rather then the political systems themselves.

    And I am not a "miss" I am 46 years old and married. Hard work is NOT always rewarded. I know this all too well. ALL too well.

    Really, ANY woman knows this.

    And anyway, what is with the attack on communism? This is supposed to be a HUMOROUS thread. I'm not a communist, or a capitalist, or a fascist or any other kind of -ist. People are just people and they are the SAME in any political system.

    Well, if you have to explain that it's a joke... it stands to reason that it is not a joke. And you seem paranoid. Why would they come to this forum, or even know who you are? LOLOL
