The Red flag is an integral part of our heritage: it illustrates the values for which the forefathers of our Red Revolution fought and died, the glorious ideals of egalitarianism and equality, and stands for everything that makes the People great. It is not simply a piece of cloth, but rather a small portion of the People's soul; the law should reflect this. Below, I will very briefly outline what I feel the law needs to take into account.

Desecrating the flag by any means whatsoever is tantamount to mutilating Karl Marx itself and belies a deep loathing of this proud nation. Thus, execution seems to be a punishment that fits such a heinous crime; those who revile Communism to such a degree as to defile the Red flag shouldn't be allowed to live.

Furthermore, overtly displaying the flag conveys a love of Communism and its principles. It strengthens the People by weaving the disparate elements of our diverse society together under one common emblem: the Hammer and Sickle. Such patriotism needs to be rewarded; although there are many vehicles for doing so, I feel that a medal would be best. For every flag a responsible citizen displays, he/she should be entitled to 1 medal.

Such a plan would reinvigorate society by promoting cooperation and instilling a sense of unity and belonging amongst our youth. Our children will be imbued with the notion that we are all the same; that we are all equal People, and increased toleration will inevitable follow. And when one walks down the street, with flags festooned as far as the eye can see, a sense of pride will well up in one's bosom, and their devotion to Communism will blossom.

Sorry, it was inevitable.

Everyone loves parody. Now if only we could get Weird Al to write a song about FAG.

Brilliant!

It could parody "Proud to be an American", by Lee Greenwood.

In fact, we could write it.

Now there's one I could put the old Bic lighter to. ;)

Let go of my strings!

Andaras Prime, this thread is made of fail. Complete and utter fail. Xi niu qingwa cao de liumang FAIL!

The flag doesn't even show up because it's not a supported file format.

Let go of my strings!

done

done

*falls to ground in a heap*

Dammit!

you get what you ask for.

Everyone calls it the October Revolution.

And your picture link is broken.

And copycat links are frowned down upon by the mods.

I personally love the smell of burning commie flags.

It's a piece of cloth. It's no more or less important than any other patterned piece of cloth symbolizing some other nation and their heritage. Not everyone in the world is a Communist or loves Communism. I even hear there are other government systems out there.

Really, aren't there better things to stir hornets' nests about?

Agreed.

There is that killer bee issue,
and then the ones with cell phones killing bees.

You're trying to make a point, you're trying to catch some people in a contradiction, but you don't achieve either goal. I yawn, I yawn massively.

And why should desecrating Marx's body even be remotely important to anybody?

Did you just copy and paste that from FAG's thread Kat? :p

Marx is worshiped as some sort of demigod.

Was this supposed to go in one of the rp forums?

Parody of Freedomandglory's flag dickwaving thread, which still seems satirical in my view. I don't whose "heritage" the OP is referring to though, as if there's some sort of common bond between commies.

You were sad when it was revealed SocialistRevolutions was a troll, weren't you? One less potential bosom buddy.

Knowing AP, I am not so sure. :p

On a side note, Vladimir Putin may or not be a good world leader, but he sure is the world leader that kicks the most ass! :D

y'know, one of the first times the red flag was used to denote a people's revolution in modern history was just round the corner from where i went to university :)

The Red flag is an integral part of our heritage

You do realise that FAG is unlikely to understand parody, and will instead take this as yet more evidence that we are all communists? :rolleyes:

Ssssh! Only the chosen few are allowed to know that NSG really stands for the Nudist Socialist Ghetto.

Links to ED are verboten, I believe.

I'm disappointed in you NSG. This is an obvious parody thread, and yet half of you have taken it seriously. For shame.

I only count three posters taking it seriously, and that's actually kind of stretching, since one of them just asks where his bic lighter is.

YAY COMMUNISM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Once upon a time I read that the Reichstag flag photo was retouched, because originally the soldier holding the flag had three watches on his wrist ;)
