Either way, here are some posters from the "no" campaign

This one is scarily prophetic...

I can't quite decypher this picture. Black cat in crib. Looks like baby on the floor, possibly tangled in blanket. I can't tell what is in the background behind the crib. Looks like maybe light streaming through a broken window. However, a cat can't break a window or push a baby out of a crib!? What story is this picture telling?

The mother left the baby unsupervised and the baby fell out of the pram. Babies who are many months old have the strength to do this. Either that or the baby was scared by the cat that came in in through the open window (which the mother left open) and is using the pram as her cat box to sleep in. A flower pot is falling off the window ledge (probably which the cat knocked over) and hot sun rays are shining on the baby. So, the mother is neglecting her child for too long.

Also, black cats are symbols of bad luck.

Could also represent women substituting having cats instead of having babies at home.

Thanks. After the fly-on-binky poster, this one disturbed me the most even though I was having difficulty interpreting what else was happening beyond the cat displacing the baby from the crib. These additional details make it even more devastating.

This is one of those threads I click on thinking, "eh, I don't care about this subject, but I'm bored, so..." and I end up being fascinated and thoroughly impressed by the artwork and analysis. It's like an art, history, social studies, and politics education all at once.
