That's not why I posted this here, though:

The government will also probe the possibility of outlawing the political use of certain symbols, including the swastika as used by Nazi Germany as well as the hammer and sickle that appeared on the former Soviet Union flag.

the current government is doing some cuts to worker's rights the likes of which didnt even happen in the 90s depression so naturally they would want to ban hammer and sickle. what if the people start to get ideas? they'll even throw the swastika under the bus, considering the air force academy still uses that one in their logo after they "stopped" using it edgeworth-shrug

This is it isn't it. They are proposing cutting the right to strike. What is happening to workers rights here is grounds for a general strike. But even our labour unions have been ran to the ground and are so closely tied to capitalism now that I doubt very much that will happen.
