Isn't there something wrong with it? Like, sure, sex sells, but someone's sat there and drawn their perception of a 'sexy woman', and they've ended up with an utterly unobtainable beauty standard that reinforces normative patriarchal views.
Like, if you're gonna argue that sex sells then it should at least be a diverse group of sexy people. People who are sexy to more groups than those who hold a typical male gaze. If socialism is a movement for everyone then it'd advertisements should be geared towards 'everyone' rather than what seems to be primarily heterosexual men.
I'm cancelling the USSR for all that horny Socialist Realism. (/s)
I feel you on the comments being creepy, though I think a lot of them were particularly irony poisoned awooga jokes. The art just seems to be by some Brazilian woman who likes drawing pretty ladies and mocking America though, so I don't think the art itself is coming from a particularly misogynist place.
I think there's a trend of people hiding behind irony in that regard, but yeah.
The artist does draw more pornographic stuff too, and the main consumer of rule34 type stuff is young men. No, it's not an act of misogyny, but you could say that it reproduces those conditions in catering to that group.
That's kinda branching into a whole different dynamic of exploitation though. And as far as I can tell these we're R34 commissions, just horny brained character art.
The horny irony is definitely an issue, but I think for the most part here it's kept kinda under control (at least relatively). None of it is really diverting into misogyny or anything.

But hey, I can respect the hustle.

Fair.
This is something one artist made, this isn't commissioned propaganda meant to sway the masses.
