I like to switch out my PC's wallpaper pretty regularly usually in accordance with whatever has been interesting me recently. I would love some wallpapers with vaguely communist/socialist/leftist influence but searching for this doesn't bring up much that looks better than something a graphic design student would make their freshman year of college. Especially at the 3440x1440 which is the resolution I am aiming for.

I'm specifically looking for pretty art or propaganda (silly or serious). Y'all got any?

    ISTR some amazing pictures of the rail yards at Wuhan, like https://i.imgur.com/XnD53bA.jpeg (edited for nondead link) More high-speed passenger trains in one photo the entire North American continent.

    I like looking up Soviet brutalist architecture to use for wallpapers recently. Kinda hard to find something that large though. I'll post my current wallpaper when I get on my laptop.

    Added pic I'm using for my current wallpaper

      I've seen this one in person! Couldn't figure out exactly what the building was for, something related to space I guess

    I like this one: https://files.catbox.moe/xhdvm0.png

    It's the flag of gay space communism

    I used this poster by Lissitzky for a while: Beat the Whites with the Red Wedge.

    Also, this website has a large collection of soviet art, but it's not great resolution. I've been able to find higher resolution copies of some things just by googling it.

    When I'm bored sometimes I'll go through online collections from museums and such. You can find a lot of stuff to download in high res

    I like using pics of skylines or city streets in socialist countries. Like beautiful little side streets in Cuba or a glowing view of Shanghai at night
