Demonstrators poured into the streets from Hong Kong to Moscow to Santiago, Chile, waving flags, beating drums and dancing to music.

About 140,000 jubilant workers gathered in Istanbul's Taksim Square in the first celebrations at the site since dozens of people died there in a May 1 gathering more than three decades ago.

they rallied for better work conditions, higher wages and laws that are more just.

And they believe communism is the path to get these things. ....in complete denial of the historical record.

Looks like CBS News took part in the celebration. They could hardly contain themselves.

Actually,’May Day’ is a perfectly good way to express how many Americans feel about how the country is going under Obama, particularly when repeated.

Oh joy, sounds like a nice bunch of fun loving anarchists, not like those lunatic rightwing tea party terrorists! I bet back in the Russian revolution the people felt jubilant to until the realized what they had done. They f’d themselves! surprise!
