Maybe if you aren't familiar with US politics? Even then, the last panel should clue you in.
It's not hard to interpret it as "russia in 1917 was awesome, actually". The message wouldve come across far better just using an alt history US election or something imo. Like, it's extremely clear the comic is satirizing americans calling everything communist and saying communism is inherently evil, but doing that by applying these talking points to 1917 russia isn't helping in making it not seem like it comes from a tankie, on a platform that has a ton of those. Especially when you don't recognize everything as a democratic talking point because why the fuck would you when you're not american.
