Raised fist logo is used in a lot of Communist advertising. The death toll of Communism is over 100 million. Isn't this insensitive to the Chinese and Russians who perished en masse in a holocaust worse than even Hitler would do?

👍 for jumping immediately to a hitler comparison.

There's a common understanding of Soviet Communism having won the war on Nazism... The logo lacks an any associations to the polity found in this issue.

I assumed you'd try to justify it. I'd just like to remind people WWII is over and those ideologies they had were unbelievably destructive. It's WWIII now so maybe you'll find a way to move on from all that crusty old Communism that The Chosen gave you.

I haven't laughed this hard in a while. If you're ever in Paris look me up and I'll buy you a beer.
