No they aren't the Itilian one would go hard as a bit of art for an anti-fascist punk album. The other one belongs in the margins of a middle school history book so you can see this weird shit.
I'd give 20-1 odds that it's a Chinese-made print on petroleum-based material, and highly unlikely to be canvas. So it would make beautiful art as it burns and drips.
Edit: picture this- this building with this banner at night. The banner in flames at a rightward angle. At the bottom of the banner where it's burning, the cheaply made plastic based banner melts as fast as it burns. Dripping, black molten plastic stalactites feed tiny black plastic stalagmites below. Freedom and law are seen in burn barrels behind the building.
yup. that's how we know why dictators do this. millennia of precedent. they're little losers on their insides so they have to project power outwardly and make themselves inescapable. they start by going after the most vulnerable people in society because their strength is a lie. they fear going after someone strong will reveal their truth
I can see the the kinda yin-yang thing they are going for; Lincoln the president who ended slavery and Trump, the guy who wants to turn us into slaves for the oligarchy.
