^ this comment is relevant here also.
We can acknowledge both that, the original Creator had bad intentions for the US and the message rings very true today.
Originally this message was designed to weaken the US. Today this message will strengthen the US. Time has changed the material conditions of the world.
My current opinion is, a message can be good or bad regardless of the source. That can have exception when there's hidden implication of support for evil deeds (ex. all lives matter). In this case, I can recognize the truth in this message that still resonates today and don't see the implication of support for the entirety of Stalin's actions. Also, bringing up the iron curtain is actual pretty ironic, given that was about isolationism and this comic is (at least on the surface) anti-isolationist.
Right, but it also ignores the other side of the coin which was (is) the state controls all media.
It’s saying our un-fair media is better than their un-fair media and ultimately pushes no good message.
We should cool with concern at ANYONE on ANY SIDE that asks you to ignore what everyone else says.
