Here's my proof:

We've all heard of that "larger-than-life" commie Joseph Stalin, right? Well according to a small bit of Russian I've just picked up, the last name 'Stalin' means 'man of steel'

Apparently, Superman is also known as the 'man of steel'

Stalin = Man of steel
Stalin = Commie
Commie = Man of steel
Superman = Man of steel

Superman = Commie!!! :lol:

Despite the fact he upholds the tenets of capitalism and supports the ruling classes while defeating the poor struggling underclass?

I dunno... there are worse vehicles to be in an accident in -- the Ford Explodo or whatever it was called comes to mind. At least in a Trabant the Fire Brigade can cut you out of the wreckage with a pair of scissors. Or just pour on some warm water and dissolve the bodywork.

I'm a socialist actually, thank you oh so much.
If you could avoid associating me with genocidal dictators in future, I'd much appreciate it.

Thankyou. In the spirit of the moment here's one of my favourite left-wing zingers:

Q: How many members of the Socialist Workers' Party does it take to change a light bulb?
A: Humour is a tool of bourgeois oppression.

And a genuine Soviet joke:

Q: How do you know Marxism was a philosophy, not a science?
A: If it was a science, they would have tried it out first on dogs.

A: Thats absurd, where are you going to get a light bulb?

Petrov: Wow, she must really cook well!!!
Victor: Well, they've only reached the part about the great October Socialist Revolution so far.

There were two men, an American and a Russian, who both died and went to hell. When they got there, Satan presented them with a proposition. "You can either go to American hell, and be forced to eat one bucket of crap a day. Or, you can go to Russian hell, and eat two a day. The American, after doing alot of math, deemed that one was less than two and that he would go American. The Russian deemed that his life had been crap, he lived in crap, and his wife looked like crap, and he would go to Russian hell. Later, the two souls met again. The Russian asked, "What's American hell like?" The American replied, "Well, we eat a bucket of crap a day. What's Russian hell like?" The Russian replied, "Well, sometimes they don't have enough buckets to go around, and sometimes they forget to deliver the crap."

That would all work, except that Stalin wasn't a communist, he was a fascist. And Superman already protect fascists, he protect the American goverment.

Yes, yes, I'm an anti-stalinist socialist, but please note:

Once upon a time, Stalin woke up wondering what the people actually thought of him. So, he decided to go undercover. He disguised himself as a laborer, and went to a nearby factory.

At the factory, he casually addressed one of the workers.

'Hey, comrade. What do you think of comrade Stalin?'

The worker got the fright of his life. He looked around nervously, and whispered back: 'Look, I can't tell you that in public! Meet me after hours, then we can talk.'

Stalin was intrigued, so he decided to wait and come back later.

At closing time, he once again approached the worker, and asked him what he thought of Stalin.

'Ssshh!' the worker hissed. He looked around, then tugged at Stalin's sleeve. Stalin followed the worker, on a tour of the city's most dark and abandoned alleys. After hours of skulking in the shadows, they reached a deserted lot between some buildings.

Stalin couldn't contain himself any longer by now.

'Now, what do you think of Stalin?!' he asked, enormously curious.

'Actually,' the worker replied, 'I think Stalin isn't all that bad.'


(And there's lots more where that came from... :) )

This is supposed to have happened in reality somewhere.

Some party official was giving a speech on how in a couple of years there would be a car in every garage, or even a helicopter!

Then someone in the audience asks: "Why the hell do we need helicopters for?"

Official's reply: "Why comrade, so you can go to the store and get in queue even faster of course!"

...And while we're at it:

A conversation overheard on a Moscow tram.
"Excuse me sir, but do you work in the Kremlin?"
"No I don't."
"Perhaps you are from St-Petersburg?"
"Not at all."
"You don't work for the KGB or anything?"
"No. Why do you keep asking me these questions."
"Oh I was just wondering if you could take your foot off mine."

Okay I am just going to say this once and one time only SUPERMAN WAS NOT A COMMUNIST. There is no proof in what you say and it gives conservitives like me a bad name. By the way if it is some aging hippe liberal pothead making fun of the right I just have to say this: it is not funny. Also as the always say right is right that is why were called the right wing because we are always right. And besides he is a cartoon caracter I do not believe he would have any political ideoliges besides the views the wrighters gave him.

Now THAT's funny! :D

There was a poll carried out some years ago in a Scottish newspaper: you are locked in a room with Margaret Thatcher, Saddam Hussein and Jimmy Hill. You have a gun with two bullets. What do you do?

The most popular answer was "shoot yourself". The second most popular answer was "shoot Jimmy Hill twice".

Actually there is some twisted logic in that because Lex Luthor is a capitalist who trys to buy up everything he can. SuperMan is probably the fight against capitalism. But then again you could say exactly the same thing about Spiderman and The Green Goblin. Hmmm... Maybe SuperMan and Captain America should fight... But isn't SuperMan a good old Christian boy?
