Which do you find preferable?

It depends on you. Which do you like more/think fits you more? I know that's not what you're looking for, but both are fine, one's just more fun than the other.

What is this, critical thinking? Do I need to send you back to the gulags?

I'm not a socialist, but I would like to ask - is there some significance to the "Sponge and Sickle" that I am unaware of?

For what it's worth, I think the quote about religion being the opium of the masses is one of my all time favorites.

Quick trivia question for all you socialists out there -

Where is Karl Marx buried?

Hint - there is a GREAT trick answer.

In a red plot? :p

Spongebob is renown in wacky conservative circles for referencing socialist ideals. Mr. Krabs is portrayed as the greedy capitalist interested in profit maximization at all costs. In one episode where Krabs tries to enslave the jellyfish, Spongebob destroys the factory. Afterwards he says, "Phew, It smells like big business in here." In another episode when Spongebob goes back in time, Mr. Krabs is king, and instead of profits he's greedy over taxation. There's also more subliminal elements like the competition between Krabs and Plankton, Spongebob's unconcern with wages, etc.

Just ask Dobson. :D

An excellent stab at it. The more commonly accepted answer would be "In a communist plot".

In that case, I'd stay with the clenched fist, symbolizing the worker.

I try to stay away from Dr. Dobson at all costs, lest a thinking person associate me with his particular brand of idiocy by mistake.

Speaking of Spongebob, did anyone see the episode they aired today at 2:30 EST?

Spongebob: You need to see a doctor
Patrick: My job doesn't afford me health insurance.
Spongebob: What job?
Patrick: Exactly.

:D
