Only if you mean it in a TR sort of way, and even then, I have issues with the man.

No I mean "communist", just like you thought. 
Progressive has been used interchangeably with communist since the days of Marx, another one you want to watch out for is "Democratic". Take note of the countries that use "Democratic" in their proper names, none of them are places I'd want to live.

Sledgemeister,

Depending who you voted for, everything you say will be said to be racist or fascist. They are quickly becoming meaningless terms here in the USA. I hope the Aussies don't follow this direction.  IMHO both racisim and fascism are very deplorable beliefs and to bandy around the term when there is no intent numbs folks to when they do occur.

I thought it was KFE over there? Kentucky Fried Emu

Ratcatcher, there is plenty of "intent" and a perfectly obvious motive.
They are intended to demonize any one who disagrees with the "communist in chief"  because that socialist menace happens to be half African/Arab.
They would have been up sh!t creek if if a white communist got elected  
And do not buy into the PC BS about "Fascism" the primary belief held in common by ALL the "Fascist states" was hatred of communism, only 2  (Germany and Japan ) believed that "master Race " crap.

Tom,

1) Sorry I was not clear. The intent of the ad was not rascist.
2) Fascism puts the state over the individual. Thats wrong in my mind. Italy had the Romans ruled the world mixed in their version as well.

I grew up in the deep south and never quite figured where the stereotype comes from with the fried chicken and watermelon. They are two of my favorite things..... and are to almost any other white southerner.

Hell, now I feel discriminated against for the lack of recognition.

 

Don't forget the Collard Greens, Country Style Steak, and okra..

Seems the "PC" crowd got to somebody.... Where's that Mr T ad for Snickers with him on the cannon shooting the "walker"....

I think that one was pulled too.

[tombogan03884]

 Maybe I should have said that only in Germany and Japan did any one take the :master Race" crap SERIOUSLY.
There's a big difference between "Carthago Delenda est" and "The pasta must be Al Dante"

Actually Quinticillus Varus, and WWII's Gen. Graziani had a lot in common

Some people wake up in the morning and it becomes their quest to try to find things that offends them.

I did not see anything racist in the clip.  However, I am a white-Christian-American-male-gun owner.  That alone makes my evaluation suspect.

lol  I wake up  every morning and work out how I can try and offend someone

 I don't have to work at it. It comes naturally
