Just started this poster and it’s only a draft rn with curves/hues etc out of whack, but yeah. The boulder in the foreground is composed of Soviet victims. There’s a reason the majority of Soviet propaganda is covered in red.

I’ve considered all sides of this argument and I keep coming back to my initial response. This man is a terrorist, traitor, & and a sadistic sociopath who belongs in prison. Unless you’re slapping cuffs on the man, or absolutely have to make contact, stay away from him. Don’t legitimize.
Yeah sorry guys Mamdani isn't it. I have a standard for elected Democrats and it's "don't play nice with Trump administration fascists and act like we have common goals with them". Gavin Newsom broke it when he decided to do a podcast with Steve Bannon. This is arguably worse!

The babushka army of Putin’s true believers are something else.
"Mom, I’m not going back to Russia. I will go fight on Ukraine’s side." — Russian soldier Dmitriev Ruslan Alexandrovich, from the 121st Motor Rifle Regiment of the RAF. He calls his mother to say that he is in captivity but alive. Yet somehow, his mother doesn’t seem very glad to hear from him.

Pretty fucking simple.
Former Finnish PM Sanna Marin put it bluntly: “To end the conflict, Russia must leave Ukrainian territory.”
Just one point. Nothing more to discuss.

The American public needs to make any dealing with Russia dangerously unpopular for the administration. Their numbers are already sinking going into the holidays. I’d like to think it possible.
This is Zelensky putting pressure on Trump. He knows Ukrainians don't want to surrender. He's talking to all Americans across the political spectrum who support Ukraine, love freedom, and hate surrender. He's telling them: "you can't allow Trump to align the US with Ru against Europe". Let's see.
NEW: Brutal to watch Zelensky address his nation just now. On the brink of being abandoned by the US.
"Right now is one of the most difficult moments in our history. At this moment, Ukraine may face a very hard choice: either the loss of dignity, or the risk of losing a key partner."

I picked this Soviet poster boy project because I thought it’d be a quick go, but, turns out it’s probably one of my more detailed choices. Recoloring the tiny text around the globe is literally painful and I can only do a couple letters before I have to work on something else.

Remake of a WWII era poster.
We won’t forget who our enemies are and why there can’t be peace without a complete surrender and dismantlement.

I support the Priess Plan.
I already have a counterproposal:
Russia pulls forces/proxies out of Ukraine—all of it—and removes offensive weapons from regions bordering Ukraine.
Pays for all war damage—and reconstruction.
All Russians engaged in war crimes stand trial.
And Ukraine can join any alliance it damn well pleases.

letting foreign governments be your translators and not requiring domestic telecoms to have enforceable cybersecurity standards are both known in counterintelligence as “pro-gamer moves”
Just to get this straight
Witkoff doesn't know Russian and relies on a Kremlin provided interpreter at high level meetings
Dmitriev is actively engaging in meetings with American elected representatives
the Witkoff-Dmitriev pact was authored without knowledge of senior State Department staff
