Re: [Marxism] Thrift shop imperialism
On a humorous note, this reminded me of a story I heard some years back..
There apparently were some old Sargeant Bilko t-shirts left over after he
passed into oblivion which found their way into China. Unfortunately, for
the buyers of the t-shirts, Sargeant Bilko bears a striking resemblance to
the Dalai Lama (think about it, it's true!), so the bearers of the t-shirts
found themselves in some trouble with the government, believing the wearing
of them was a subversive act.
