This is the future conservatives want
0% budget for art, science, space, education, healthcare, or environment
100% for Military pic.twitter.com/aQvGyI5kbj— Stonekettle (@Stonekettle) March 16, 2017
Fwiw, this is May Day, 1935. The big aircraft in the middle is the one and only Tupolev ANT-20 “Maxim Gorky,” which made its only May Day appearance in that year. It was destroyed in a mid-air collision on May 18, 1935, with the loss of 35 lives.
Then the world’s largest aircraft, the ANT-20 was designed, and used, purely as a propaganda machine.
It was intended for Stalinist propaganda purposes and was equipped with a powerful radio set called “Voice from the sky” (“Голос с неба”, Golos s neba), printing machinery, a library, radiostations, a photographic laboratory and a film projector with sound for showing films in flight.
