In 1928, the Left Front of the Arts avant-gardists teamed up with the Young Communist League for a shock campaign aimed at eliminating badly designed interiors, knick-knacks and other middle class aesthetic objects under the slogan "down with domestic trash". Tasteless figurines, postcards and mass produced paintings were confiscated and burned in the streets, flower wallpaper ripped from the walls in the "war against ugly philistine aesthetics." We socialists take aesthetics very seriously ;)
