Almost all of them have a quote that Mao said in them. It’s either to convince people to join with the Communist party, criticize capitalists, or to get rid of China’s Four Old. It usually depicts the people of China in regular clothes and either fololwing Mao or looking up to him. Mao’s main goal was to make China a communist state even though some people don’t like the idea of Communism.
