Soviet satire posters

Soviet satire posters were visual artworks produced during the USSR that used humor and irony to critique various social, political, or economic issues. Often created by artists and propagandists, these posters employed exaggerated imagery and clever captions to highlight flaws in policies, mock bureaucratic inefficiencies, or promote communist ideals. By appealing to viewers' sense of humor, these posters aimed to convey serious messages about societal shortcomings while reinforcing state narratives. They played a significant role in shaping public opinion and encouraging social awareness during a time of strict governmental control over information.
