Interpret This

Does this mean that our over-indulgent, consumerized, body-toning society is founded on techno-military power? Or, since the tank is upside down, does it imply that the way to achieve an over-indulgent, consumerized, body-toning society is to overthrow the techno-military power and turn tanks into treadmills? Does it perhaps inscribe the notion that fitness, like war, is a fascist activity rooted in violence and dominance? Does it argue that war is as pointless as running on a treadmill, going nowhere with great waste of effort?

Or is it just weird?
