Coke As Correct Thought
Mao often interacts with his target audience, children, whose ignorant minds are prime territory for establishing "Correct Thought". Here He offers tea to a proud child in the process of drawing the red star on her hat. "Oh how wonderful" Mao is proud. His tea offering is oddly similar to the image of American youth being offered Coke at the parlor. Here in America we are led to believe that Capitalism is the way and it is our duty to participate within the consumer based system by sucking down one of the machine's lubricants. Coke taught the world to sing and Mao to advertise.
