You can make those connections all you want, but these kinda prints have been in the U.S. mainstream since the 60's. It's iconic, but does not provoke as much as it appeals. Most who see this don't think Revolution, but rather what feelings are already there, for instance a need for change. I find it strays from the "Red, White, and Blue" buttons and ribbons campaign advertising of old. Youthful and refreshing, this might just find its way into the history books once this is all over.
