Nice list. When I was working in China one of my host coworkers told me that during the Mao era there were many days when all he had to eat for an entire day was a single small sweet potato. Therefore, the fare at the prom should be one small sweet potato and a ration ticket with the attendees name on it must be produced to get it. Ticket is turned in for the potato so it can't be used twice. Nothing else should be allowed for food.

There needs to be an Aleksander Solzhenitsyn Gulag commemoration "dance" by forcing all prom attendees to hand rake the entire school campus and wash all the windows before being eligible to receive the sweet potato ration ticket. All must participate in this collective effort. No exceptions.

There should be a moment of silence to contemplate the millions who died under communist regimes.

Etc. Etc. Etc.

Young people like that becoming explicitly, open-
ly, brazenly Communistic?--Still, there may be
hope; maybe it was intended as a joke. (even if
a sick joke).
I have zero experience with going to proms.

I think the blame falls squarely on the shoulders of the educators.

they are demonstrating their ignorance of the world.
why don't the celebrate the accomplishments of man for being good versus dictatorial government.

So you're in on the plan to crash this prom, then?

excellent!

Nicely done.

Since men and women are equal and 'equal' and 'alike' are identical, there should not be separate types of clothes or shoes for men and women. And if a woman can fit into her elder brother's tux or a young man fit into his elder sister's prom dress, then this should be encouraged as conserving precious resources.

I grew up in Roswell, back when the Air Force had a presence. We knew about defending the US against communism, as we heard the jets overhead.
Then Woodstock and the hippies migrated to Taos, and Old Albuquerque, the feeling changed. Then Jane Fonda moved to New Mexico, can it get worse. Well, now the influence is complete and we have classes of nitwits soon to graduate.
Oh, and about the dress, code, nothing fancy or colorful at the prom, go with Mao and the basic drab garb.If the little idiots are going to do it, go all the way.

This reminds me, for some reason. I was thinking about putting a sticker on my truck with a photo of Pol Pot - maybe some mock campaign sticker. I know, not really related. But, it reminded me of that. Most wouldn't get it. Cambodians would probably key my truck and flatten the tires...

One day on the East Berlin side of the wall was enough for me. Cola, cola mit vodka, or vodka were the three choices. No one drank the cola, because it tasted like Pepto Bismol.

Those students need to share their not enough punch from the same drinking glass.
My parents visited Russia when it was the Soviet Union during a church organ tour of also Europe, believe it or not. (My mother led a church choir).
They took a photo of people lined up at a water fountain of a sort that you could fit a hose pipe to it. It was summer and hot.
There set the glass.
Yum! Yum!

They think it's cute and rebelious. They have no idea how deadly serious it is for victims of communism.

To celebrate the spirit of the prom, I'm assuming they are going to combine all of the GPAs and redistribute grades equally. Along with all scholarships, grants, etc. received by the Seniors preparing to go to college.

I need my fair share of their prom. I didn't get to go to my high school prom, so they should invite me, and my wife, too, who didn't go to her prom, either.

And because we have suffered longer than they have, we should get a bigger limo and first chance at the refreshments. And the booze. Oops, I forgot, they aren't old enough to drink, and we don't drink. Oh well, can't have everything.

Sorry. I'm off the mark there, not being selfish enough. I don't WANT their prom. Or especially their vodka.

How about instead someone send the books and the videos of We The Living and Atlas Shrugged to some of the members of that senior class?

I guess all the prom dresses and tuxedos should be made by someone's grandma, all must look exactly the same, only available in 3 sizes, XXSmall, Medium/Long, and XXXXLarge. Shoes only available in Size 7 for men, or Size 12 for women. No manis or pedis before the event, only makeup allowed is what can be found in the clearance bin at Walmart.

And those shoes and bags shown in the picture reek of capitalism, and all such items should be contraband then substituted with a pair of Bruce lee slippers.
Do they do this in the classroom too?

Yup. Spending a couple of years in Russia or China would do wonders to cure them of the rot that is currently overwhelming their cranial faculties.

And people think zombies are mythical creatures... Nope - they're the process of a liberal education. Vampires are real, too - they're the educators.

"Anyone up for a road trip?"
Are you thinking of crashing the party? At this prom, party crashes you.

I went to an International Baccalaureate program. Those kids are all fired up and stressed out. It's a lot of "OMG YOU MUST GET INTO IVY LEAGUE". Those kids will all be completely different in 10 years.

We HAVE to take this things over and make it "work":
1 - Not enough cake, punch, refreshments in general. excuse? "shortages. what can you do?"
2 - terrible-tasting refreshments. excuse? It was the head chef's day off and no one else knows how to make a cake. what can you do?"
3- those of us who know about modern music do something appropriate.
4 - Decorations? None. They're frivolous and wasteful.
5. Royalty? Somebody - or several somebodies rant, rave, scream, yell, abuse and general pound on people for wanting such a non-egalitarian element of a prom.
6. Everybody goes, whether they want to or not. It's a required school activity.
7. Transportation: the school busses will pick students up at a specific time. Some will be late. Some will never arrive. They will be available to take students home at the specified ending time.
8. After prom? Don't be silly. One party should be enough for anyone.
9: Dress code: [near and dear to my heart] Each student will be allowed to spend the same amount on his tux or her dress as any other student. Those who have older sisters who have a dress they can borrow will be permitted to wear it and pocket their "clothing allowance"; the same [unlikely] situation for older brothers, cousins, fathers with tuxes that can be borrowed. Note: Since males and females are equal, the clothing allowance will......I ran off the rails here.

Somebody else, take it away! I'm sure I've forgotten something. Anyone up for a road trip?

No those kids, their parents and their teachers need immersion in a communist society to de-romanticize the personal, social and economic oppression. Useful idiOts in the truest sense of the term.

I was thinking a protest outside the prom with pictures of The Holodomor...

shameful testament to the lack of parenting and the educational system. Perhaps a field trip to Cuba or Venezuela is on order?
