        You know why it's called Black Friday?

          Just after black history month, we're now going to celebrate consumerism by buying goods mass produced by slaves

          Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

          No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.
