communist propaganda art

actually, communism propaganda art is quite cool. after trying to re-create this last night, I can understand why the hype caught on so well. it’s not the art entirely that won the battle though, the whole idea of communism is supposed to be the way forward for mankind in the future.

But the whole concept has a fundamental flaw: human greed and selfishness.

Communism is not a bad or evil thing, that’s what your history and social conditioning would like you to think. If communism had it’s way, there would be no global warming, no mindless capitalisation, far less crimes, no need for prostitution (damn), no murders committed in the name of religion. The world would be simpler, people would be helping one another and mankind would live the way God intended it to be – to live peacefully and to take care of the planet without mischief.

Ah. But that is a perfect world, a dream world. Now let’s talk about reality. In reality, we all want things. We want our Ferraris, our golf memberships, our sexy ladies swooning over us, our men to splurge money on us, our iPods and our pretty clothes. Abolishment of private property? Not with our greedy human nature, no way. In the real world, central planning becomes dictatorship. Communal work runs into laziness. Oh well....
