Well what would you expect when you have socialist, communist and anarchist groups coming together for a "celebration" of international labor ?

Thanks to them you have a eight hour work day.
btw I did not see or speak to anyone that claimed to be a communist although it is possible that they were there.
There were various non violent peace/human rights groups represented along with those from the labor movement.

Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
Winston Churchill

In other words, they are all losers, they can't make it in capitalism so they want you to share your money with them.

Churchill would do anything to keep the countries Britain enslave.
I would say Capitalism is the complete failure, it enslaves millions of people.
