WARSAW, Poland -- Vladimir Lenin is not considered funny in Poland.
A Polish mobile phone operator that used a cartoon image of the Russian communist revolutionary found itself barraged by angry feedback and responded this week by stopping its advertising campaign.
Older Poles remember the late Soviet leader for shaping a communist regime that killed millions and imposed mass terror in the Soviet Union. A communist regime was later imposed on Poles against their will by the Soviets after World War II.

Because this is not a political forum, I would not want to continue this thread.

I think SOC means, what's going on in the heads of those ones who think up a advertising campaign like that...
You are correct Natan...I meant that the people who launched the advertising campaign are CrAzY! (like RAD)
No offense intended toward you Rad - just threw it in there as a joke.
Chill my brother. 🙂
