Same been collecting propaganda since I became aware of it (mostly digitally of course), grew up with an otherwise unavailable US WWII poster on my living room wall for some reason. It doesn’t even advertise anything other than revering the intellectual apparatus for national security purposes. The rest of the series turned out to be the same. One is just “stockpiling 😎” idk who it was for
It’s nice to have some Good Propaganda I mean. Looks real nice
there’s also a really good soviet propaganda poster with a simple painting of the earth backdropped against the cosmos, and then a crude crayon house around it saying “there is no other home” and it makes me so sentimental.
good propaganda like that is amazing. i think about what it meant and how pro-social it was, and i’m happy, and then i think about how the ussr collapsed and vultures picked at the carcass and that one clip of kids confessing to prostitution for scarce money and i get a bit queasy
