      Ive once had someone explain a theory to me that spongebobs town, bikini bottom, is actually located at bikini atoll, and all of the characters in the show are mutated because of the precense of radioactivity.

      It would be a start.

      No one would ever see the Chinese bombing of Nickelodeon Studios coming.

    "Haha! Look at our corporate symbols and despair, commies!"

    This is about as cringe as :reddit-logo: 's "place" gimmick where most people eagerly stuffed the place with logos for car companies and other treats if they weren't doing petty territorial warfare against out-groups and their pixels.

      Similar to Ukraine defacing the statue of Lenin and turning it into darth vader, the vandalism is the point.

      during the 2014 US backed color revolution in Ukraine, the libs did this to the same statue: https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/9t8F632HIt.jpg

        I wouldn’t be surprised if the people who made it were actually communists regretting 'murica ruling them. From that angle, the message is obvious and hits hard.

      The writing says "in line with the times", so it might be a critique of the introduction of capitalism.

      I mean, they really struck a nerve, I wouldn't be surprised if the people who made it were actually communists regretting 'murica ruling them. Like it or not, this shit is iconic.

      During the lifetime of great revolutionaries, the oppressing classes constantly hounded them, received their theories with the most savage malice, the most furious hatred and the most unscrupulous campaigns of lies and slander.

      After their death, attempts are made to convert them into harmless icons, to canonize them, so to say, and to hallow their names to a certain extent for the “consolation” of the oppressed classes and with the object of duping the latter, while at the same time robbing the revolutionary theory of its substance, blunting its revolutionary edge and vulgarizing it

    Ex-soviet anticommunist would dig up the corpses of past communists and put them on a trial if they could. You can't criticize past fascists or monarchies because history sins of the father et cetera, but the "crimes" of communism is eternal to them.

    I was still very much a lib when this happened, but damn if I didn't know it was cringe even back then
