From The New York Shitty Inbox: Red Dawn
It would appear that Staten Island Chuck’s bit(e) of direct action earlier this week has spawned its own clothing line. It is called Viva Chuck, it can be found on Cafepress and I learned of it courtesy of a woman who calls herself Lillet Langtry.*
I like the Che angle but for the sake of Dialectical Materialism I have to confess: I wish his little paw was upraised and brandishing an AK-47. This would appeal more to my petit bourgeois capitalist— soon-to-be Lumpenproletariat— sensibilities. In any case there’s at least one red in Staten Island. Who knew?
Then again it was once written that four legs are indeed better than two. But of course sporting a sharp set of choppers doesn’t hurt!
…No question now, what had happened to the faces of the pigs. The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

Actually that doesn’t just say “Red Dawn,” It says “Red Dawn 2.,” which is the name of a Brooklyn-based band.
So be it. One “Red Dawn” is simply not enough. Let there be two!
Now if you don’t mind I’m going to go out and hunt me down some Commies! Given Greenpoint’s political leanings this might take me awhile. 😉
Tell me what you're thinking...
