I didn’t know there was this kind of pro communism propaganda back in the day
Shame it didn’t happen
Interesting racial twist there to spice the standard anti-communist propaganda.
Who the hell are “Asiatic Russians”?.. Kalmyks?..
Why so much hate against Russia in the West?
It is not because of fear, for West is stronger and knows it. Then, why? Don’t understand this.
No, they are going to be killed by bullets. Easter Europe know.
Wait what… sterilized?
This is much more twisted than your standard anti-commie propaganda. Racism, Sexism, and … don’t even know what to call it … fragile masculinity persecution fantasy?
Well, they raped their way through germany at the end of WW2. So it’s obviously well made propaganda, with a grain of truth to it.
Hannelore Kohl, wife of former chancellor Helmut Kohl, lived in Berlin at the end of the war and was raped by multiple russian soldiers before they threw her out a window. She survived by pure luck. There are estimated to have been 280.000 rape babies after the red army left.
*to the people rationalizing rape: you are disgusting.
This poster is disgusting. It’s too ridiculous even for an anti-communist propaganda. Second, it blatantly manipulates people by using a pretty girl as a victim. And yes, this is blatantly sexist too.
Asiatc Russians trampling helpless women, sterilizing all men…
this is a page out of Goebbels’s playbook, all right.
Oh noes, Russians want to touch my pee-pee! Quick, let’s finance a coup in South America!
/obvious s
People used to hate Asians back in the day; while trying to insult Russians by calling them “Asians” – they end up insulting actual Asians.
So it wasn’t just Europeans calling Russia ‘Asiatic’ then? I remember watching the time ghost army ww2 channel and even Polish leaders were referring to Russians as Asiatic.
Is this some sort of kink-shaming?
Ooof… Well
This coming from a society at the time that was racially segregated its no surprise this uses such charged language but Christ, this looks so wrong in today’s light
I understand this is nasty cold war propaganda, but it just seems needlessly hateful (and I am guessing OP would agree). Russian people are largely European, both ethnically and culturally. Russian leadership might, for strategic reasons, place itself at odds with Europe and “the West”, but the Russians themselves are basically just Europeans on the other side of a political boundary.
This is a bit like how the Irish or Italians were demonized in the US as something other or less than white.
Hopefully, these days we can largely say we have grown as a people and are above this kind of dehumanizing rhetoric.
Lol, it’s interesting that propaganda is all the same no matter which country it is.
Russia lost, but american men became sterilesed by their own authorities, women and corporations
Just out of curiosity do you have a date for this poster? The actress Janice Logan was only active between 1939 and 1944. And it does seem like this quite possibly is an anti-soviet propaganda poster that is referencing WW2 but made before US was dragged into the war which would make it a rather unique little tidbit of history!
Its often useful to know, what westerners always thought and still think of us.
Funny thing is that much of the Western world, especially America, practiced sterilization of their “unwanted” (those with mental illnesses or genetic issues) citizens. Hell, even Roosevelt supported it.
It is absolutely obvious that Russians are undesirables for europeans.
Maybe thats it and we shouldnt try to stay a part of Europe, as europeans will never consider us as europeans?
Just Russian region and Russian people, neither Europe, nor Asia. How long we will consider ourselves as europeans if there is no place for us in Europe?
Russians! Why are you stepping on these cute mini-women?!
