Obama using Marxist Revolutionary Imagry
Posted on 09/07/2008 1:31:08 PM PDT by Brookhaven
Am I the only one that has noticed the how much the images being used by the Obama campaign resemble the ones used by marxists/communists?
The purpose of these images was to create a god like status for their leaders in the minds of their citizens. Essentially, they create a religious cult around their leaders.
There is a definite style to these type of images. The Obama campaign is not only using the technique, but parroting the style used by marxist propaganda posters. You can only think they are trying to send a message "we are with one of you" without actually comming out and saying anything.
TOPICS: Politics/Elections
KEYWORDS: art; marxists; obama; obamabiden; shepardfairey

Nope you’re not the only one here. Now the MSM is another story.

I’ve seen those images......I wondered why I was so put off by them. Your post clears that up for me.

Is it the Obama campaign? Or Obama followers creating and selling it?
Either way, using the preferred artform/propaganda of historys greatest murderous regimes is not something that has fallen lightly on my mind.

Two of those images were pulled directly from the Obama website.
It seems like a number of the others are being created by “independent” artists, but they say they are doing it in cooperation with the Obama campaign.

Am I the only one that has noticed the how much the images being used by the Obama campaign resemble the ones used by marxists/communists? Nope! There have been many threads on FR detailing the likeness.
To: fishergirl
Did you notice some keywords used by both Obama’s that come from commie writings?

If he’s elected look for the Rat Party’s (formerly the traditional, patriotic Democratic Party) version of socialist realism.

And how did Rome fall from being a Republic? When Caesar became a dictator and his kin became emperors and gods. With Obama we're skipping a couple of steps and going straight to divinity status.
To: Brookhaven
Also notice - all of those posters try to accentuate his “black” features - lips and nose are both larger in those images than in reality... Still playing the race card without saying a word.

you’re right. I had the same feeling seeing this pictures of Obamamessiah. I remember thinking the p[ics had a kind of third world look.

You are by no means the only FReeper who has noticed the similarities.
Several dozens of Osamabama signs, posters and symbols, given a different face on them, would have been perfectly at home in the Soviet Union in the 1920s and 1930s, and had (no doubt) full Party approval.

I have no doubt that commie keywords are being used, but I gag at the sight of the both of them so I switch channels as quickly as I can. The only way I can listen a little bit is if I’ve had a couple glasses of wine and then he makes me want to throw my glass of Chardonnay at the tv.

Mark Levin has been real good at pointing out that the O-man uses direct verbage from Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" in his speechs. Alinsky being the Socialist "community organizer". Here is another blog article with more background.
