Who hasn't seen the Joe Biden campaign signs in people's lawns and elsewhere? You know, the ones with the bright red letter "E" in the words "Biden" or "Joe".
My wife and I were discussing those signs a few weeks ago, as we drove around town. I asked her if she had any idea as to the significance of the letter "E" being in red.
Neither one of us could come to any conclusion over that and I had forgotten about our discussion. That was until a minute ago, when she pointed something out to me...
"Three Red Banners (Chinese: 三面红旗) was an ideological slogan in the late 1950s which called on the Chinese people to build a socialist state. The "Three Red Banners" also called the "Three Red Flags," consisted of the General Line for socialist construction, the Great Leap Forward and the people's communes.[1][2][3]"
