“Hurrah, the butter is all gone!”
I like the way this anti-Nazi poster saw through the facade of Hitler’s Germany—and located its driving energies in oral compulsion and cognitive dissonance.

actually, the poster translates as:
Hooray! the butter is all gone.

The poster is trying to keep Germans off the saturated fats.
Thanks, I’ll correct it.
