Is this the guy who makes alt right comics?
Edit: yeah, it's George Alexopoulos. They're a good artist, but they're pretty nasty. I wouldn't post their stuff.
I've seen a few great Linux memes with this, but I think the biggest insult would be for people to use it as a template for things he doesn't believe in.
Mockery is the sincerest form of insult. I hope this meme lasts forever.
This is an edit, original had the bible
"They're the same picture"
I never knew why people need to conflate the personality or political opinions of the artist with the art they make.
In my opinion, even if the artist is a terrible human being they can still produce some good art. And even if the art they produce is crap, it can still prove valuable, as it can be parodied, modified, transformed or mocked.
Are you ignoring the fact that the artist in question specifically makes anti-left propoganda? Like it's literally their entire identity to try (and fail) to make fun of leftist politics
