I like how they accuse the artist of virtue signaling, while simultaneously virtue signaling how awful violence is, no matter who it's targeting.
Also, calling it shitty art? I think it's sick af.
Virtue signaling is only something other people do when I don't like what they're saying.
Virtue signaling is a vice that I, a virtuous individual, would never partake in.
What these people fail to realize is that complaining about virtue signaling is a virtue signal.
I know you warned me, but all of the smug enlightened centrists are out in force.

To the artist, It appears you have become the monster you set out to destroy.
"Dear Sir/Madam, by wanting to see white supremacists dead, YOU have become the white supremacist. "
What part of "no excuses for the terror" is difficult to understand?
As a self-described monster, i must say that i'm glad i'm not a fascist monster and that a world where all fascist monsters have been destroyed and where the only monsters left are stalinposters and anarchist throwers of vegan milkshakes sounds pretty damn sweet.
r/art is for nerds and hacks to post laboriously-traced pet portraits or coffee-house abstracts or what basically amounts to tumblr comics, while taking the opportunity to brag about how long it took them to colour in the lines or how they were motivated by the trauma of their roommate moving out or whatever. Remember to title your submission "Sadness, me, digital, 2020" so you can larp that your horny illustration of an anime girl will someday hang in a gallery and isn't destined to be the background of a youtube lo-fi house mix.
Anyways real homies browse r/museum

I also hate KKK members, and really don't understand their type of nasty racism. (I love different races of chickens, that's is racist too in some way, but it's love, not fueled by hatred. But that's a different topic I guess.
What are you talking about :agony:
Yeah, i think by my understanding racializing of animals is pretty common among most people, not just white supremacists. See purebred dogs etc.. Where it actually gets interesting is their use of "love"/"hate". Either they want to separate "loving racism" (love for specific chicken / maybe also love for white race?) ,which is accordin to them A-OK apparently, from KKK (the haters i guess) or they just think loving someone means eating them, which a lot of people do with animals so idk. So either the whole chicken thing is code, or it has nothing to do with the post.
Edit: Also unironically using "nasty" to describe racists
The less reactionary version of this sub is r/redditmoment
Reddit often has 2 versions of the same sub. Like "PublicFreakout" and "ActualPublicFreakouts" or "Me_IRL" and "MeIRL". This happens because reactionaries post blatantly racist stuff and get banned. So they make their own version of the sub specifically for being reactionary.
All these fucking sympathizers are giving me vibes that their family members are racist and they're getting defensive to cope 'cause it could be them up there lmaoo
I have racist family, and while I'd rather re-educate them, meh. I'd get over it.
The shadows on the different hanging klansmen adds alot of depth to the piece.
Cool pic, wish I could have commented on the thread before it got locked. The style makes it feel raw, like the artist was gripping their brush tightly and slashing at the canvas with it.
Redditors hate this because it's not a soulless photorealistic image of baby Yoda
What if I drew a picture of Baby Yoda killing klansmen and police?
i dont understand "their type" of nasty racism
so there is a type they do understand?
5k upvotes, it probably hit r/all/rising and got infested by the reddit general population from there
Not that it was ever good but it's crazy how banning popular left-wing spaces causes the right to become more emboldened.
Who could have predicted this?
Weren't all the redditors soyfacing about how in RDR2 killing KKK and eugenicists didn't penalize you? Honestly
You also had your fair share of Redditoids chudding out over beating up suffragettes
rdr2 was the first thing my mind went to as well. i guess if the artist threw in a hanging suffragette it would be good then
