C'mon. We usually accuse weirdo groups of not having a sense of humour. I thought it was amusing even though I'm not on the same side of the political/economic divide.
We can't often change others' viewpoints but if they have a sense of humour, we can talk.
I'll grant you it was an attempt at humor, Bob, but to actually call it that would be setting the bar pretty low.
I have some very good friends who are socialists and ..yikes!..even Marxists. Some of them, and certainly the ones I choose to spend time with, are lovely people on a social level.
However, if they were ever put in a position of power, we would be hopelessly screwed.
Un-fricking-believable!

I read that the memorial to victims of communism is going up near the Supreme Court of Canada building.
