Those dudes who wear that flag endorse pro-capitalist welfare state candidates like obama and sanders. they're really far away from advocating the seizures of factories and productive facilities by the working class.

It makes them sound less like a tool of the USSR. But when your electoral strategy (in America for example) is to bus in a load of "hispanics" to load the votes while stoking up hostilities between working class "whites" and "hispanics" it kind of crumbles on all socialist convictions. So... maybe just another brand of political organisation?
