thats a COOL shirt! I would have complimented him on his communist party shirt

reminds me of the time I was looking for NORINCO .45 ACP ammo and the guy that worked in the gunstore started lecturing me on communism and said the ammo is JUNK made by slave labor in China , etc, etc

why I shouldnt buy it

The girl that shares an office with me bought that shirt. I told her I was going to get her an Obama sticker to add to it to make it correct.

The shirt is just a word play on the "Communist Party". Since any one of those communists leaders would probably have killed any artist that depicted them that way, I don't take offence at the shirt. To me it is mocking them, not promoting them.

I am glad we have some people that just look at it and laugh, a bit at the "communist party" thing (boy I hope i got that shirt right...).

I probably shouldn't admit this here but I went to Russia several times earlier this decade, and I was there for 9/11/01. My family does humanitarian aid with orphans, widows, hospitals and womens / children prisons (yes, there are child prisons). I bought this hat and wear it every so often. There's a hammer and sickle on the sides too but this pic looks like they are covered up.

Never had anyone question / comment on it even here in Texas, but if they ever did I would explain that I wear it to commemorate the failure of the USSR, the ills of communism and what it does to a people, and how every person I met there loved what they knew of the USA, particularly Texas.

Now that we have a commie administration I've stopped wearing it

Even though it's a joke, it's still distasteful. The again I wear a Spikes Tactical "kills jihad on contact" shirt around, so who am I to pass judgment.

Whoah.

I know two very right wing and historically aware people who have that shirt. It really is just a joke.

I should make you aware that Monty Python did a hilarious "Mr. Hilter" sketch without any big controversy.

please explain the joke to me? Does the double entendre of "communist party" mask the fact that you have some of history's biggest murderers laughing it up? It's not funny to me.

How do you feel about the Hitler memes on Youtube?

Annoying people

1. Vegan who tells you meat is murder when you are eating a hamburger
2. Girl in a smoky bar who whines about cigarette smoke. You're in a bar lady.
3. Guy who throws a hissy when another adult stranger wears a joke shirt he doesn't think is funny.
4. Those who are offended by the cover of US weekly and need a special "family friendly" lane at the grocery store.

Lets all try to not be such delicate flowers.

I once worked with a guy who wore an "I <airplane> NY" shirt. Now THAT I can understand being offended by. The Communist party shirt, on the other hand? Eh. I guess I have bigger things to worry about.

Its a 'communist party'. It isn't pro-communism - its making fun of them. I love that design and would wear it.

Me thinks you just don't get it, It's a tongue in cheek style, humorus stab and is NOT pro communist. I have seen this shirt for sale on several conservative websites.

One of my faves.

Also the only Che shirts worth having. Some other good Che shirts

I guess the OP would have a problem with my Type O Negative shirt with pseudo cyrillic writing, the band members profiles on a flag ala Soviet propaganda & the band's Hammer/Sickle/Gear logo. They are far from being communist, much less leftist (not quite 88 types but very non PC).

Yup...It's called a double entendre coupled with satire, neither of which is directly making fun or knocking communism itself. Although I wouldn't label this shirt as 100 % pro-communism, I wouldn't categorize it as anti-communism either. I do feel that it puts a positive spin on very negative subject matter and I don't think it's funny.

Quoted:
The responses in this thread from people who don't understand that the shirt is a joke are so fucking stupid they've erased everything I learned in my final semester of college. Thanks a lot, assholes, and be expecting a bill for my tuition

I think you need to go back to school and take informal logic...

what a lot of people don't get is that the che shirts aren't about communism, they are about revolution.

a lot of the braindead idiots that wear them equate communism to revolution now.

So I'm at the bar tonight with a few friends when a guy walks in wearing this T-Shirt
http://laughingsquid.com/wp-content/uploads/communist-party-t-shirt.gif
At first I took a look at the shirt and gave the guy a disgruntled look. After another beer I pulled the gentlemen aside and asked him if he knew how many Hundreds of MILLIONS of people had died under the communist rule. He responded that he didn't know and said, "what do you want me to do, take off my shirt?" I responded no, that would make me a dick and I know we all want to have a good time. However, I would be cautious as to where you wore that shirt because me wearing a Hitler shirt would probably be less offensive than the shirt you're wearing.

I wear a red shirt with a white hammer/sickle over a CCCP pretty regularly.

No one has ever given me shit over it. First person to do so, gets intimate with his dentist.

I saw a poster of that exact picture with the words "Welcome to the Party!" just last week. Almost bought it because I thought it was amusing. (plus since half of the campus are closet or not so closet socialists, it would have another level of humor for me).

But now I'm glad I didn't, since according to the OP I would be supporting communism in some way
