It certainly covers all the bases.
I know, right? It's perfect.
Money, a Swastica and a Cross. beautiful.
Swastikas technically already include the kind of cross the Romans would have actually used
I also see an Odal Rune very appropriate and quite popular with the far right.
The SS used a slightly different version, but I’ve seen this one more frequently.
I am saving it to my political images folder. This design is a perfect encapsulation of the shittier aspects of society.
What other stuff you got in there?
Here ya go.
Looks blurry compared to OPs image which appears to be vector graphics. Just saying. Image compression perhaps?
I love this, so I took a moment and recreated it as a vector image. Here it is if anyone wants it for printing or whatever. I squared the edges so it's more versatile, too. (Sorry for the google links, I know it's ironic and not ideal. The previews look weird, but the files will download fine.)
I do like the idea of capitalisms colour being yellow.
This is far too orange to be appropriate however.
It's gold-like, which seems congruent to me. Yellow by itself doesn't say too much about capitalism, maybe anarcho-capitalism, but not capitalism as a whole.
That's where my mind was at but didn't want to directly reference actual propaganda. anarchy and capitalism are mutually exclusive.
@jjjalljs@ttrpg.network got the right idea. yellow = cowardice.
The orange version actually matches pretty nicely with the world's current political dumpsterfire.
Libertarians do often wear gold colored ties to visually indicate their political leanings.
"Gold" (that orange-y yellow), as well as regular yellow, is historically the color associated with liberalism (as in capitalism).
Agreed. Orange is more of a fascism kind of color.
Why yellow over red or green?
Red is already taken, and green implies environmentalism.
Cause it's piss
It's the favorite color of ancaps
I think it should be purple. Historically, that was the color of the royalty and the wealthy
True, but Feudalism hasn't been a powerhouse of global politics as of late.

For those who didn't notice, there's a swastika hidden in the $
Is this the new official flag of the USA?
No, just the flag of the Gulf of America.
I haven't been this thrilled about a design since Tui's logo.
fair, tui is pretti gud too <3
Instead of yellow, black, and white it should be red, black, and white. This way, everyone can see where capitalism is heading to.
the yellow-orange colour represents gold, an obsession with material goods. I think it makes sense personally.
Also, most fast food colors are yellow and orange to make you hungry, so yeah it works from multiple angles
It's also the color associated with liberalism (as in capitalism).
its already pretty obvious from the logo i feel... no need to over-epmhasize it..
“Heil the Oligarchs”
It looks like intersecting swastikas than a dollar sign. Which is kinda fitting...
I am not sure why the down vote, that is the literal intention of the design.
I really wish swastikas were not used in connection to Nazi stuff, but what's done is done.
I agree. It is an ancient, ancient symbol in many cultures. I had Hindu neighbors that put swastikas on their door during Hindu festivals and prior to the Nazi rise to power it was just a symbol of good luck in the West.
Also they ruined the toothbrush mustache. Once during the end of a no shave November I decided to see how I would look with that mustache... and I honestly thought it looked good on me.
But I knew I had to shave it off because there was no way I could keep it. Made me hate Hitler more than I already did.
I feel like watching Disturbed's cover of Land of Confusion again.
Goddamn that music video is something else.
Yeah sadly now it's the 6 o'clock news.
I know what you mean. The original has been ringing in my ears since mid-February.
The original at least had some levity.
I think it would look better if it was Dollar green.
Gold has a broader meaning.
Looks like an angry duck 🦆
It took me a few tries to see that
maybe havin two lines would make it more obvious that its supposed to be merican moni symbol... i feel that the reference would still be easily recognizable.
The international dollar (int'l dollar or intl dollar, symbols Int'l$., Intl$., Int$), also known as Geary–Khamis dollar (symbols G–K$ or GK$), is a hypothetical unit of currency that has the same purchasing power parity that the U.S. dollar had in the United States at a given point in time

$ is also used in many fictional settings as a currency symbol, often in video games.
also known as Geary–Khamis dollar
Lol those two dudes really got to attach their name to this idea? The idea that we can use '$' to symbolize a hypothetical currency equivalent to USD?
Really??? Good for them I guess...
