Redditors mad
Link (Trigger warning)
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.
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. "
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.
