Also, for context, it's election season here too and the center party has completely lost ground to the center-left pro-independence party. The right wing and center parties are responding to the rise in popularity of the soc-dems with anticommunism and plenty of comparisons to Castro and Maduro. So the meme is playing off the satanic panic levels of anticommunism in PR at the moment.
