So much cringe in this image. It wants to be rad, but the closer you look, the more bad shit you find. For starters, the 13 stripe flag everywhere. "Vote socialist" magazines. No loitering signs.

Duh, it's socialism with American characteristics
No loitering signs.
“No standing any time” means you’re not allowed to stop your car there.
i literally can't tell if this image was made by a commie or a neolib. i decided to look up the artist for answers and they're chinese, so lmao

There's some pretty cool art by this artist. Thanks!
It's interesting how this image has been posted with entirely positive comment sections in the past and now it's undergoing a completely different but negative comment section with some different people. I thought that was a reddit phenomenon but I guess hexbear isn't immune to it either.
I think the CPUSA would have to undergo radical reorganization in order to be the principal party of a future socialist America. Also, the thirteen stripes on the flag still is pretty lib IMO. I didn't think a lot about it a few years ago, but the more I've become cognitive of historical class struggle, the less I believe in venerating the 13 colonies on the flag.
I've also never liked the gear/sickle/hammer, but that's just me.
Oh yeah the cpusa leading it is fundamentally not possible. The party is washed. PSL makes more sense but a Chinese artist wouldn't be aware of this.
Oh I know. I used to think this image was sick lol but now I see it and think "We can do better then this".
Sixth 5 year plan completed
illuminating inequality
vote socialist
What the hell has this fictional "CPA" been doing for 30 years if inequality still needs to be illuminated and elections need to be fought 
what you don't see is the on-going radioactive remediation projects
