[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Y'all, this thread is wild.  The person who is BIG MAD about the logo for the bagel shop is making me giggle at my desk.

Back to the topic though.....inventory in Del Rey?[/quote]
Does a clenched fist in red feel friendly to you? [/quote]
Anyone?[/quote]

Wait till you hear about the logo on the new garden and hardware store.[/quote]
A swastica? Let’s hope not. 
Del Ray is not the place for radical crazies, and that includes Communists with their red clenched fists raised up high. Let’s hope bagel boy reconsiders his highly offensive mural on Mount Vernon Avenue. Del Ray most definitely welcomes friendly folks and business owners, not radical crazies looking to start fights. Peace and Love to All of Del Ray! [/quote]

Obviously I meant a hammer and sickle.

Seriously, there was one political movement in history that used a swastika.  So unless its being used as a symbol for a south asian religion, its always going to mean Nazis.

Upraised fists have been symbols of lots of revolutionary movements, including anarchism, as well as Marxist ones. It is NOT generally seen (at least in the USA) as a symbol of Leninist regimes in particular - really the hammer and sickle is that.  Democratic Socialists, including some anticommunist Social Dem parties in Europe, have used a fist with a red rose in it as a symbol (don't tell Red Rose Twitter, they may not appreciate their symbol being used by such "imperialist lackeys")

So, er, yeah, a red fist seems to be a verbal pun on "uprising" (and you know, bagel are risen, baked goods) - not a reference to the ex-USSR or its satellites.  [/quote]
