Giving up healthcare and guaranteed employment to watch Sex Show
Come to the capitalist West where women have to fuck strangers so they don't starve to death you oppressed commies!
Communism is when no strippers
CW: Discussion of CSA depicted as anti-communist propaganda by the artist responsible for this painting
This is almost certainly, like this must be anti-fascist satire. Look at the elements
-
Disney, an American cultural imperialist icon
-
Coca-cola, natch
-
Pornography
-
prostitution
-
consumerism
-
gin, the most wretched of all alcoholic beverages
-
Bananas that were overwhelmingly associated with communist oppression for reasons

Axel Springer is a media company that publishes the tabloid rag "Bild". Notably the elder Springer divorced his wife, who was Jewish per the Nuremberg laws, so he could continue working as a Nazi publisher. Some small amount of credit, he apparently did support his wife in some way or another and she did survive the camps. Like every other German who survived the war he was simply helpless to resist the Nazis, he's very sorry, he had no choice, and please ignore that he was a member of a Nazi paramilitary organization. The Red Army Faction bombed the Axel Springer offices in the 70s and the rag is right wing to it's core.
But then on the other hand the tombstones at the bottom are people who were killed crossing the wall, so who knows?
Welp, I looked the guy up. CW applies here -

He's famous for drawing pictures of Red Army soldiers gleefully sexually assaulting and murdering blond haired blue eyed German children.
I have no fucking idea what is going on with this picture. I assume, in light of his politics, this is some kind of "Both sides are bad" fascist wank about a "D*" Western Germany and a lifeless oppressed Eastern Germany.
Maybe it's "The East Germans thought we were going to rescue them in to a good pure fascist Aryan society but actually we've been overwhelmed by "D*" so West Germany is actually bad"?
Fuck idk who can understand what Fascists think they're doing.
gin, the most wretched of all alcoholic beverages
finally, somebody willing to say it
What, Aviations are great!
Gin specifically has a long and torrid history as the Drink That Brings Men Low, with propaganda pieces about the dangers of gin specifically, not alcohol generally. The UK Gin Craze was a full blown moral panic
I thought it was totally classy! Heard the places where you can drink it were called palaces!
they are... gin by itself just tastes like plant water though
Gin should never be consumed straight. I love gin but that is not the way.
thats the crème de violette talking
I must ask you to reconsider your stance on gin
Only reason he's correct about gin is that he's clearly never had 99 Bananas.
If you think 99 Bananas is bad, you should try the other 99-branded liquors.
New Amsterdam is my goto cheap gin
Dionysus asked me the same once. Out of an abundance of piety I agreed. Never again.
Onlt thing I disagree with is that gin is the only good liquor.
Wait a god damn minute, a Tom Collins is delightful
Lol doc venture ass drink
Maybe if you swap your maraschino cherry for a dash of ketchup
Those two prostitutes in the image are likely sex trafficked from eastern europe, part of the massive human rights violation that was the neoliberal plundering of former ussr republics by the west.
This legit looks like a satire piece
communism no condom ads
Yes come you oppressed communists and taste the glorious [checks notes] prostitution, cheap liquor, processed food, Disney imperialism???
And fruit produced by slave labour! You forgot about that part!
The bananas are a flex for all the South American imperialism.
no banana was an actual anti-GDR talking point.
We've got alcohol, porn, and high fructose corn syrup! Lmao.
Damn the Soviet Union was still in black and white in the 80s? When did the West start sharing color technology?
Briefly thought the heart on her crotch was a cock n' balls and got very confused at what the message was
Bananas are ontologically evil
It's like It's a Wonderful Life except he starts in Potterville and has a terrible nightmare of a decent society. It's A Shitty Life.
Enough with that old dreamy Caspar David Friedrich shit, this ought to be the National Painting of Germany.
