That whole image looks like they just took a poster from 1930s Germany. The style looks just like the posters did in history class 🙃

This sort of realistic depiction of idealized subject matter was popular worldwide during the mid -20th century. It's a style associated with propaganda posters, but also with Norman Rockwell Americana.

Its a style that can trace its origins back to the "Muscular Christianity" movement, which itself is the origin of modern toxic masculinity.

Usually masculinity movements are pushed hard in anticipation of war. Curious that Rogan, Tate, Peterson et al. have reached fairly widespread popularity among young men and adolescents at this particular time in history.

Of course, this could be a side effect of instability in society but one has to wonder.

I think your sunglasses are backwards

He's got two sunglasses. They're polarized with a 90° offset

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 weeks ago

You got it backwards there. Just put on the goddamn glasses!

I found a boat load of nonsense on that page, but, not this poster. Can anyone confirm this.

[–] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 31 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

The issue with the poster is it's based on literal Nazi propaganda.

Also Americans don't call America their "homeland" "motherland" "fatherland" or any of that shit, that wording is uncommon in the US and intentional as a Nazi dogwhistle

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 23 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

We don't call it the homeland, but regressive have been trying their hardest to get us to with the most obvious reminder being the Department of Homeland Security which was named in 2002.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

When Bush announced the creation of that department I was 18 years old. I remember thinking it was dystopian at the time.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Naming a department in a country founded by immigrants using a term reminiscent of terminology used by nazis that they celebrated defeating about 50 years prior as part of a nationalist propaganda movement certainly was a thing.

[–] SpacePanda@mander.xyz 12 points 3 weeks ago

I know this, I was looking for confirmation they posted the other picture. Idk I'm really hoping they didnt. I am aware of German history especially that part. Thank you though.

[–] Oyml77@lemmy.today 19 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

It was definitely posted to the department's Instagram.

Damn, Thank you for that. I didnt even think to look on Instagram.

He should have his shirt off. I think MAGA underestimates the pull of homoerotic content amongst their fans. All those poor repressed conservatives men just dying to fondle Old Man's Saggy Sack

[–] shawn1122@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 weeks ago

How close are we to Republicans making a 'bring back pederasty' poster? It was a practice of their favorite empire after all.

Brokeback mountain posters, just some hard working men.

What's Nazi about it? It's pretty clear AI slop though.

[–] MithranArkanere@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

They are using the word "Homeland" instead of "Fatherland", but it's pretty common nazi imagery nonetheless.

[–] llama@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 weeks ago

Because it's based on the core principal of exploiting an endless frontier of personal sovereignty through pastoral expansion.
