Waving the Hammer Sickle.

Waving the Hammer Sickle.

It's amazing how times have changed.


I'm told that some flags are highly offensive. Apparently the one reflecting those responsible for millions of Russian deaths is not.


Anyway, I'm no more worried about a far left takeover than a far right one. Both groups are a magnet for idiots. This video further exemplifies that. :thumbsup:

They'll soon be treating those who kneel during your national anthem in similar fashion....

Trump will make a law, bigly, to make it happen.

Trump told them not to do it and everyone did it except for the Steelers who refused to even come out of the locker room for the national anthem.

From what I've been reading about the kneeling thing. Is it's destroying the NFL, Stadiums are empty now and football on TV has dismal viewing numbers falling ever week.
I was just reading comments on FB about it, and people are fed up with it. and are now the sport will suffer and in turn the players pay packets.
In a sport mainly played by black players but supported by white fans. You don't want to piss off your fan base. Same goes for Basketball. It's not like they can go get another job.

What sources have you been reading? Didn't they mention there is an ongoing issue with people protesting the NFLs response to the CTE issue which predates the anthem protest by some years?

Not sure what the kneelers have to do with the commies. In any event, the NFL will take a hit in viewership. Not enough where folks are going to go hungry or anything, but less viewers mean less advertising revenue for each team.

Anyway, this video reminds of a British dude that spoke about waving pictures of Chairman Mao, and the amount of support that would generate.

They do. But the Russians of today are nice compared to the Soviets and the terror they unleashed on their own people.

I think they retired that flag too. :thumbsup:

That's not saying much tho, is it? Not when you set the bar so low.
Anyway the Ukrainians, Georgians & Chechens (among others) just might have something to say about that. :wink: :wink:

There are many ways of describing present day Russia. Cuddly ain't one of them.
Just my own personal take, from this side of the pond, Maddog. :dunno:

Putin has killed thousands of his own people. Let me know when he gets to the tens of millions like his predecessors.

He hasn't even hit Pol Pot numbers yet. When it comes to being a murderous commie, he's not even in on the top 5.
