so I saw this in system wars(about obama)

Usually I don't make or post threads that have to do something with politics. But I thought this was pretty funny/interesting. Anyone would like to explain the meaning of this t-shirt and the connection with che and obama? actually will someone make tell me the connection between obama looking like The Joker(heather ledgar version) with the words "Why so socialist" when the Joker was all about anarchy?

socialism is an early form of communism, which is basically anarchy

socialism is an early form of socialism, I thinkimaps3fanboy

Basically we all know that Ché was a marxist, there's various rhetoric circulating among some political groups in the US that Obama is a socialist/communist/marxist, therefore they can compare him with Ché because they can make a clever play on words about saying "no" to communism and/or socialism based on whatever they percieve Obama as. Of course, there's no real connection there.

You know a joke's bad when you have to explain it.

[QUOTE="ProudLarry"] Erm, no... Anarchy is the lack of government, and is an extreme right-wing concept. Now there is something known as anarcho-communism (theres also anarcho-capitalism), where property, wealth, and law is owned and enforced by people belonging to the commune. But that form of communism doesn't develop from a socialist government as a socialist government would be quite large with bureaucracy. ProudLarry

Anyone who connects socialism to anarchy and thinks they're being clever with the why so socialist are pure idiots.

Anarchy = no government/ no control

Socialism= government control
