Because you never know what you might see.
Argh.

This is what I dislike about online political debates.  This kind of ridiculous misconception.

    Agreed. And the Republicans ≠ Fascists/Nazis.

    Also, online debate? I am pretty sure this happens in real life as well. After all, politics is the mind-killer.

    Too true.  But I guess these things come out more often online.

    This is even funnier considering we really do have a communist party.

    My roomie has that first image on a shirt.

    Well, I guess it's better than those Che Guevara shirts... I swear, the poor guy must be turning in his grave.

    I never know whether I should laugh or cringe at the popularity of the Che Guevara t-shirt design.

    Take your jollies where you can.

    They always make me rage a little. I would totally wear this shirt if somebody gave it to me, though:

    Not true. I'm a pure-blood Communist, but I know that a party even slightly resembling the Party of the USSR wouldn't get a single seat in Congress. I know that for communism to exist in the U.S, it has to be made more palatable and appealing to the mostly-conservative American People, and it has to be enacted slowly, over decades if necessary. So I vote Democrat, and watch as they chip away at the private sector until it's completely extinguished.

    I want the shirt that the Onion made of Che Guevara wearing a Che Guevara T-shirt.

    How about a Darwin shirt that says "Viva la evolución!"?

    I want a CHAR shirt. Like, a shirt with a picture of Char Aznable in the style of the Che picture.

    What's so bad about Che Guevera shirts again?

    The inherent irony in supporting large capitalist companies by buying a shirt from them with the image of a Communist revolutionary.

    Pretty much, yeah. Then again, I think most people who wear them have no idea what his life or ideals were like, they just wear the shirt because it looks cool... wait, on a second thought, that makes it even worse.

    I thought they wear it just because other people seem to idolize him as some sort of cool revolutionary leader.

    He's like the poster-boy for Generic Cool Counter-culture-styled Revolutionary Leader.
