Tweeted today:
Did I miss @ThePeoplesCube redesign of Wonkette? https://wonkette.com one of the most grotesque website online got worse.
We checked the link and saw the ad below, right at the top: "Join the ranks! Every dollar in donations is a victory in the fight against Capitalist Advertisers!" The only thing missing was the addition of "Volunteer compliance is mandatory" to make it look like the People's Cube donation alert.
Right underneath that was an ad saying "Are you affected by Alzheimer's?" as an example of the aforementioned evil capitalist advertising. And right underneath that was a glorious agitprop featuring a fist-dancing Elizabeth Warren (Indian name "Dances with Fists"), over the slogan, "Shop for victory."
Wonkette should really change that slogan to "It's not capitalist greed when we're doing it." That'll make them look less hypocritical.
But we already wrote about that design here:

If you go to any of the Wonkette's pages and look at the right-hand sidebar, you will see more Soviet communist posters, mostly without any photoshopping or any creative alterations. Clearly, they have a lazy Department of Visual Agitation that is ripe for purges.
If you really aspire to follow in the steps of the People's Cube, you have to switch from Cannabis (weed) to Beta Vulgaris (beet) - fermentation is optional.
As an example, in the past we have used the same old Soviet posters Wonkette did, only we updated it to match the modern reality as dictated by the Current Truth™.
Wonkette's ads and buttons:
The People's Cube use of the same posters in the past:

Is perhaps new approach, irony is sincerest form of flattery? Or perhaps, in a similar way in bourgeois English two negatives make positive, parody of satire makes Korrekt Kurrent truth? Kudos for to Komrade Wonkette for artistic agitprop breakthrough, propaganda imitating Cube! Recommend for her firing squad after awarding Order of Lenin with sardonik twist.

Comrades -This is a good thing. It is obvious they adore our Dear Leader and are looking for a successor. It appears they actually are adopting this as part of their campaign literature.They may be hoping for another Cultural Revolution to purge the party. Great material for the collective to evaluate and critique.

Is there an address to which we may send beets from the collective farm as support and solidarity to Ms. Wonkettska?

F. A-M, I denounce your volunteering the beets of our own collective instead of asking the government to redistribute the fair shares of beets from millionaires and billionaires and corporate jet owners. Dress warm, pal, you have a train to catch....first, last, and always, OTHER PEOPLES MONEY.
Craptek, you let him get away with it, and encouraged him; go denounce yourself, I'm busy doing the paperwork on this anti-manatee guy.

Now you've done it! He was about to send me evidence of his treachery, but you've foiled my plan! Thanks a lot!

Right, like you're some kind of "Secret Squirr..."
Wait. Ummmm.... Oh my, look at the time! Beets to tend, a tractor to maintain, so much to be done and so few rations, but just as much and no more than any other loyal worker of the Party for me, thanks!
