Is this billboard offensive?

[Tetro Kornbluth]

Earth,

It strikes me that the real litmus test is whether Chinese people, especially victims of Mao, would consider the poster offensive. While it may be inane and kitsch, I don't think it excipilitly denies the murdering of millions of Chinese People under the Maoist state. The Kitschification of 'Totalitarianism' has been common in western popular art for a long while now. Would you consider the film The Producers a trivalization of Nazism and thus offensive?

(Basically this comes down to a simple personal preference. I find the advert far, far more annoying than the poster. You may disagree but articulating why (for either of us) may be quite difficult.)

The question of whether exploiting sexuality is worse or better than trivalizing history is an interesting one. I though would tend to disagree...
