Oh, the East German Central party tried to copy big brother Russia in everything. Including putting up socialist worker motivational posters in every space available. Similar to the Soviet monuments on Bornholm.
But some of them, somehow, inexplicably failed to really motivate...
One example is a motivational poster which was supposed to be a short-hand for the Truely Existing Socialism of East Germany.
It read:
Demokratie - Freiheit = Sozialismus
or
Democracy - Freedom = Socialism
Strangley enough, no one in the design bureau noticed the flaw of that 'semi-mathematical' formula for over three months.
Then, overnight, all those posters vanished. Who knew, right?
