Really nice article!
I'm not sure about the poster though. This is not necessarily communist, as this was just the style of propaganda posters of all kinds, that came up in the first half of the 20th century.
Personally, it reminds me more of a Nazi poster for the army, which includes tanks that look similar to these robots:

- bityard 2y agoA few of the claims were certainly a bold stretch, including this one. But yeah, it's a fun read regardless.
- digging 2y agoYes, I found this statement: > The implication of this design choice—that communist values are the solution to decades of rampant consumerism Completely absurd. The association is not with communism, but with propaganda posters. It's true that Americans are commonly conditioned to associate propaganda posters with communism, but the assertion above is an unreasonable leap.
