Found this famous running man poster in Osaka and it reminded me of the Soviet Aesthetic.

Neither being born,

nor studying,

nor working,

nor getting married,

nor getting sick,

nor hiding,

is no good without a piece of paper!

The most important thing in life is a piece of paper,

take care of it forever.

Without a piece of paper, you're a bug,

but with a piece of paper, you're a man!

Above lyrics from "Pesenka Byurokrata" (The Little Song of the Bureaucrat).

If you haven't yet then check out the oldie I made on Soviet bureaucracy.
