It’s photoshopped somewhat, the orignal had a commie flag.

So... It started as a depiction of Communist troops hoisting the Soviet flag after (presumably) burning the American Capitol, but now it has the same commie troops hoisting the American flag with the American Capitol burning in the background... Say what?

I really don't mean to criticize, but clearly the soldiers in the picture are communist/soviet troops and the US Capitol is (still) burning in the background.

I'm having a hard time understanding the statement made by this work... It seems to be depicting the heroism of communist troops in some sort of American context... as in our country in distress but being rescued by communists in some sort of way? While the US Capitol is burning?

Again I really don't mean to offend or to be critical but I just plain ol' don't understand.
