Che, why do commies always call each other 'brothers' or 'sisters'? Leftist feminists always go around calling each other 'sisters'. Did their mothers all have the same gardener or something?

I have my suspicion that it's becae Black people in the 60s used brother and sister and the commies were trying to be cool. Seriously, it's because unions refer to their members as brothers and sisters. Amongst commies, however, we tend to refer to each other as comrade.

"Amongst commies, however, we tend to refer to each other as comrade."

When I was in Germany in the '70s the Germans always called each other 'comrade'. Hence the American nickname for Germans was 'rads'.

Just fyi.

and at least in the Railroad business even management (if they were at all hip) knew this - as in - "That would require a change in the work rules, and the brothers probably wont accept it without concessions on other issues" - if you didnt know who "the brothers" were in that context, you were seriously out of it. Even worse if you thought it was reference to African Americans.

No, because when Kroger broke the union in California they really stuck it to the workers where I worked here in Oregon. They were really nasty about it, accusing the workers of a strike that cost them 30 million and that they had to cut wages and benefits to new employees to cover the loss. Thing is, we hadn't gone on strike. Kroger also fired hundreds of people, just in our area, just after Christmas. A friend of mine was among them. He was a recovering alchoholic that hadn't had a drink in a year. He had cleaned up and gotten the job to look after his ailing mother. Well, he was a good worker but he was fired. Went back on the bottle, don't know what happened to him, moved away. They accused them all of improper use of the discount card... but they were just cutting payroll because the busy holiday season was over. I don't work for them anymore.

Pro-life and socialism don't need to mix. They are separate subjects that one can have separate opinions on.

Most people wouldn't exactly describe Stalin as "pro-life" though.
