They asked me why i was laughing so much and i a had hard time to explain that the yellow rubber duck is the most famous and best seller sex toy on the planet…
Guess what ?They decided not to publish the pictures.
Anyway, i am not sure that this rubber duck is as innocent as the artist pretends. My interpretation is that it is to make the biggets joke ever on every country exposing it without knowing what it can remind people of

We went to the Summer Palace.
Our souls were full of malice.
On the side of the duck—
(that vinyl shmuck)—
we drew a giant phallus.

The “Rubber Duck”, as always depicted floating upon a body of water, is reminiscent of a play toy used when taking a bath.

In a bathtub. That the overwhelming majority of Chinese can’t afford and don’t understand the significance since they’ve never had a bathtub.

Ergo, the “Rubber Duck” is a bourgeois symbol of the rich that represents a worship of money. It’s as though China all of a sudden became enamored with polo shirts with the collar flipped up.

Wait a–
