"Arm all V3 Rocket Bombs, target: the Confederate States of America! Fire bombs at 5 minute intervals following the lead of HNS Wildeblood. Give the scum 20 minutes to think it's over and inspect the damage them give them the second salvo 200m shy of the first impact sites. VICTORY IS ASSURED!"
-A captain of a gay homeland ship in 2064
"Are the Zeppelins and troopships ready to invade the confederacy?"
"No"
"No? but the bombardment has commenced!"
"So?"
"So don't we want to follow it up with invasion?"
"Invade what? why do we want to rule over those hillbillies and KKK members? fuck 'em, we'll just blow thier cities to ash and leave the survivors to starve and suffocate in the rubble"

Some posters remind me of the usual totalitarist motives (military, party & state lieaders, industrialization), some are just typically chinese kitsch (a beatifull one, though).

I am fascinated with propaganda art from totalitarian countries,with the reservations and skepticism inspired by the fact that I am the product of a democratic society well informed about world affairs in general and the designs of totalitarism in particular.Totalitarism has its flaws,some of them major.But at least,it understand and masters well nationalism as an instrument to set large populations into motion,political action and sacrifice.You do a research with the Google engine under the "Images" item and typing "Enfants de Budapest".There you will get a propaganda picture of what could be the one of a gay independence fighter.
