Cafe and bar owners will also fall victim to the protest that the communists dream of. “Let those capitalist sharks cut their prices – or else boycott them and let them die, painfully squeezed by the screws of the economic crisis”.

Interestingly enough, there appears to be no grudge against St. Valentine’s Day in the Communist’s statement, unlike other holidays borrowed from western culture after the fall of the Soviet Union, such as Halloween.

“Many workers embrace St. Valentine’s Day, and the Communist Party is always with the people,” they explain.

If the protest call is really heard, which we at RT find unlikely, we’ll see a spectacular show: columns of hugging lovebirds in the streets waving bright red balloons, valentine cards and roses and showing “the rotten regime that ‘locking of hands and legs and fates’ is an unexpected and effective revolutionary action.”

Happy St. Valentine’s Day to everyone!
