It probably sells big in Seattle.

SEATTLE - In a marketing move that will shock no one, Amazon removed the Confederate flag after a howling mob of both liberals and brown-nosing conservatives demanded the “symbol of hate” be stricken from its shelves.

But Commie comrades can rest easy, knowing that they’ll have plenty of opportunities to stock up on Communist merchandise after their latest purge. Amazon will still stock over 50 Thousand Communist items. Communism is chic: Amazon’s senior vice president Jay Carney proudly features Soviet Union war propaganda in his lavish home, after all. “Have you enlisted in the army?” a poster featured by The Washingtonian Magazine photo splash asks.

Helpful reminder — Communism led to the deaths of 94 million people world-wide within the last century./b>
Stay proud Seattle.

    This Confederate flag stuff is a huge pile of BS. I've never understood the affection the South seems to have for the thing, but then again, I've never lived in the South. But this indirect linking of the tragedy in Charleston to the Confederate flag is beyond FS.

    Did you notice everybody is wrapped up in the flag and ignoring the GE extortion threat to offshore American Jobs if the Senate didn't give Obama fast track surrender authority?

    Top 10 all time flag design. Right up there with Nepal and the 3rd Reich in overall looks.

    Having lived more than half my life in the south, I still don't understand the affection the south has for the thing. The rebel flag should DIAFF. Not because of Charleston, just because.

    So you think that a philosophy that preaches slavery should be promoted just as much as one that promotes equality and justice? I'm not surprised.

    Let's not act like the north didn't use the Irish and Chinese to the same effect.

    Let's not pretend the north didn't segregate and intimidate and kill as much as the south

    He's talking about confederacy vs communism not confederacy vs da union.

    Russia doesn't represent true communism, and never has.

    Just like the US doesn't represent true free market capitalism, and never has.

    But the confederacy did represent slavery.

    HTH

    Okay fine you can pretend the world's first and longest running communist state wasn't really communist if you want to. How about China? North Korea? The Khmer Rouge? I'm guessing those aren't "true" communists either, right?

    American slavery sucked ass. The rebel flag should DIAFF. But virtually every communist state that's ever existed owns at least one of the greatest human rights atrocities of all time. Simple fact, cased closed, end of discussion.
    They weren't true communist states. They were states that sold the ideal of communism to their people but never delivered. Just like the US doesn't deliver true free market capitalism.

    The power brokers in the US use the word communism to scare you and get you to fight their wars for them. And you suck it up like a scared girl.

    Look in the mirror, and then ask DNC & Race.

    Hi there. This isn't Reagan's America. Stop living in the fucking past. I'm not scared of communism, communism is highly endangered, soon to be extinct. It failed. It had it's shot and is well on it's way to being naturally selected out of human history. Why would anyone be afraid of it?

    The Cold War is over brah. We won.
