Atheism was literally one of the few good things about the Soviet Union. (The other obviously being this lmao.)

It's satire. I thought the flag would've pointed it out.

EDIT: It's satire of how the right sees the left.

The Labour Party has within it Jeramy Corbyn, someone who lay a wreath at the graves of the terrorists who committed the attack on the 1972 summer olympics, a attack aimed at the Israeli members particularly, something which would show extreme anti-Semitism. Furthermore, the Labour Party also has such people as John McDonnell, who is in favour of organisations such as Hamas and was inspired by Ken Livingstone, also a virulent anti-Semite.

Ahh, ok. To figure out how they see the faux left, you should probably just go on r/TheRightCantMeme or r/ForwardsfromKlandma.

It's sickening.

I would assume you refer to the fringe to far-right (alt-right really out there and old paleocons, and Trump Republicans)?
