V For Vendetta/Guy Fawkes masks being made in an overseas sweatshop

Megacorporation Time Warner owns the rights to the iconic image identified with Occupy. Go figure.


Ummm...where did you THINK they were made, you morons? (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023982529)

By the glorious Worker's Collective in Birds of a Feather while Susan Sarandon reads Chomsky over a loudspeaker and fairies dance around, sprinkling the ground with pink and purple marshmallows?

Is there anything we use that's not made by slave labor these days?

Do those people over there think it's slave labor?  or is that just our people armchair quarterbacking?

Cheap injection-molded plastic.

I did find some plastic hangers at Wal-Mart that were American made.  I guess hangers rank above 'V' masks on Wal-Mart's profit-making list.

If it's a person that's not white working, according to the DU, it's slave labor.

I often wonder why the nutters chose Guy Fawkes as their mask.  A failed would-be bomber that was hung?  Inquisition type that supported heretics being burned at the stake?  Could somebody please fill me in on the missing detail that makes this guy a hero to the Dummies?  Please pardon the density of my brain.  I just don't get it.

Corrupt political policies.

Their interpretation of Fawkes is based on a movie, not reality.

Should have known.  No wonder I didn't get it.   ::) 

Thanks for the explanation.  I haven't seen the movie.

     In a nutshell, a liberal abuses a girl, murders people, and destroys property, but it's all good because he's a liberal.

The liberals love it.

I watched V for Vendetta. Meh. It is just one in a long line of 'Dystopian Future' films. Unlike many of that genre, V doesn't even try to make up for a dull story with stellar effects, spectacular battles, or gratuitous sex. They could have done the whole film as a play. Seriously. It would easily fit on a stage with minimal props.

The mask was made popular because of the Brit made-for-TV 2005 movie, "Vfor Vendetta".

Last month, LFR was all excited about marching around Tucson in one of those masks.  I wonder if she attended.

Oh for goodness sakes!  One would think they'd be embarrassed.
