So the CDC decided to “recreate” the Rosie the Riveter image in order to promote vaccines

At first, I thought that the picture was ridiculous, but now that I think about it, an overweight blonde with a Karen haircut is a sadly accurate description of America these days.
"Problem" glasses too.
That's more or less what Rosie The Riveter was too, just adjusted to their time period, so I guess that works.
ngmi ;_;
This is basically targeted advertising. Anyone who cares what the CDC thinks would have been triggered by a fit and feminine woman, and anyone who laughs at this sad depiction of the modern American woman doesn't care what the CDC thinks.
To be fair, that's exactly the kind of people who are at high risk should they catch the virus.

Is it suppose to have biceps or something? Couldn't they at least photoshop some muscles on that pudding filled excuse of an arm?
That would be fat phobic and ableist? Her true ‘curves’ are what make her retch beautiful.
The curvature of spacetime that she creates is what makes her beautiful.
Part of the point is to destroy hierarchies of value, so natural ideals have to go.
The other 1% are gratuitous butt-shots, or holding their kid(s)/being pregnant.
No way this is real.
Or at they trying to get the biggest risk groups - morbidly obese scum - to get the vaccine.
Irony is extinct. This is a real image
Dunno, it's a tossup. I saw another photo of Karen here thousand-yard-staring a person in a labcoat that was attributed to the CDC, though for the flu shot: https://www.al.com/news/2020/09/is-it-time-to-get-a-flu-shot-cdc-recommendations-on-vaccination-timing.html
That looks like the same fat cunt so I wonder if they are just stock images.
That is the same person. Probably like the stock market pics on Daily Mail, as one example, so yes, stock pics.
One day I realized every Daily Mail pic on the stock market was the same damn guy, just in different poses.
Linking feminism with the vaccine will only lower the amount of willing takers. Especially in the demographic where it is lowest, Republican male voters.
It also might not age well, considering the AZ vaccine created by a woman is literally killing people.
J&J's vaxx has the proper advertising approach, a quiet spread of news/press disclosures going: "Hey, we only need to give one shot instead of two, can be transported in a lunchbox with ice packs instead of some fancy science box, and is made the way the yearly flu vaccine has been for decades, instead of this new MRNA method. Our efficacy is for sure lower, but our trials have had noted zero dangerous side effects unlike our competitors, and not one person vaccinated died of the virus even if they weren't completely immune, so, you know, there is that."
That's the proper way to advertise a vaccine, a blast of honesty and focusing on your positive features and quickly brushing past the negative ones... Not... Whatever THAT is supposed to be. Honestly, J&J's advertising has got to me. When inevitably we are forced to be injected under penalty of death, I'll be hoping for that one.
I'm not really even sure what the point of WuFlu vaccine advertising is, since in a lot of places you don't even get to chose which one you get.
Same reason GE advertises their jet engines even though you don't choose what engine is on the planes you travel in.
For J&J it makes sense, since they have a lot of other products that consumers would purchase like soaps and vitamins and childcare stuff, so they'd want to push the "perfectly safe" angle real hard for their offer so it halo effects onto the rest of their items. Those J&J Baby wipes? Definitely safe... unlike the competition!?
For the ones who only make vaxxes, perhaps it is to drive stock value?
A disgusting specimen. It is afraid of the virus because at no point has it done anything to take care of its health.
My first thought is it was just a man with well-defined moobs, and if you removed the mask you'd find a standard goony-beard. But I guess the hairless arms argue against, so probably just a fugly fat woman.
So, they took a picture of a woman from the 1940s and somehow managed to make it look both less like a woman and less like a man.
Even with a face rag you can see the soylent grin on xer face.
Jesus Christ, modern-day propaganda is shit. It's either globohomo art style or Rosie the Riveter parodies.
they never should have stopped calling it the wuhan flu
Goddamn, this just makes me wonder if the wrong side won WW2.
Is the head photoshopped on that fat body?
It's Pat!
That's right ya fat beefalo at a young age, don't worry about the fact you are an amorphous, out of shape blob. Baaaaaaaaa.....
You may want to loosen the watch strap and go with a bigger awning for outerwear, as it appears your circulation might be getting cut off.
That's so insulting.
Rosie the Riveter was meant to be just a "can-do" housewife, who went to work in the factories and such to cover things that needed doing while her conscript husband was at war, whether she liked it or not. In a time when factories and construction and the like involved heavy lifting, dangerous machinery, and not so much safety and the like in general. I grew up in a factory town, I remember lots of older men having missing fingers (and they'd tell you not to cry about it, it was their own fault for being sloppy). It was meant to be an inspirational part of the War Effort, especially since she might still have had kids to raise, and was also expected to sort and recycle her pantyhose, and plant a Victory Garden. But it's still better than being fed to the front lines ....
And most of them were happy to go back home, fuck those shitty jobs, and enjoy the new inventions of television and the soap opera. :P
This? This is ... ugh. Let's just say, I'm not inspired. Not one bit.
