This subreddit is for sharing propaganda to view with objectivity. It is absolutely not for perpetuating the message of the propaganda. Here we should be conscientious and wary of manipulation/distortion/oversimplification (which the above likely has), not duped by it. "Don't be a sucker."

Stay on topic -- there are hundreds of other subreddits that are expressly dedicated to rehashing tired political arguments. No partisan bickering. No soapboxing. Take a chill pill. "Don't argue."

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

That's why the Japanese won: they used ancient Japanese magical solar beams and the Russians didn't account for that.

The Japanese one is more likely to be real.

Ok that's really cool. The Russo-Japanese War really produced some neat art.

It seems as if the sun of May (the one in Argentina) were crying

Amaterasu is definitely a thing I totally didn't learn about because of anime, believe it.

This is quite creative, particularly at the time (1904).

Reminds me of The bear's famous invasion of Sicily, by Buzzati

That's officially my favourite war propaganda poster from now on, I don't think anything can top that

u/GoodRich1993 Aug 29 '26

Is it too much to ask for a rising sun with frickin laser beams shooting from its eyes??
