I'm sticking it to the Man! I don't even know what Communism is, but I do know these graphics will sure raise a ruckus, uhuck, uhuck! Plus, they can't but help sell AOL into China!" That would be some anonymous, silent artist. Hellooooooo, Mr. Artist? Hellooooooooo? Would you care to explain the commie graphics to the Mozilla world (i.e. 0.75% of, what, probably 5% or the world's population?)? > > > I prefer to > > > offend everyone equally. :) > > And that's why you get all bent out of joint when I call you "rabbi", > > Jesus?

Those are "just symbols" too. Aren't they? And I know they taught you in your Civics class[1] that the carcass counts actually weigh in quite a bit heavier on the side of Stalin than on Hitler. But paradoxically, when presented with neither choice, you choose to stand up and be counted with Stalin. Why? [1] Do they even teach you kids Civics anymore? Do the schools even have classes anymore? Or is that what I'm running up against here, a feral generation of filthy, uneducated teenagers? > the "symbolism" most see in Mozilla > comes from within themselves, rather than anything overt in the graphics.

Alright, I'll play along. No, the internet promotes the expeditious transfer of information.
