propaganda art

[chimx]

i'm guessing this thread has been done before, but i think it deserves to be done again. y'all should post your favorite propaganda art, be it for the art, the message, the absurdity.

personally i'm a fan of the artistic merits of french propaganda in '68:

Well, you might want to know that the flag says "ЗА РОДИНУ, ЗА СТАЛИНА", which means "for the homeland, for Stalin".

It's amazing how much Catalan you can understand with a basic grasp of Spanish. That poster says "Each revolutionary victory makes the proletariat more invincible."

[Phalanx]

It is, isn't it? Catalan is quite interesting. It's heavily influenced by Castilian Spanish but sometimes you'll notice French influences as well.
