    This is fucking stupid boomer shit. The peasants will feel the wrath of climate change more than anyone.

      Also, I'd be thrilled to be the guy who has to clean up the mash potatoes on priceless art. Am I being disconnected? It seems like it'd be neat to go, "oh holy shit, they ruined a Monet." It's just some mopping, right? It's not like they have to go home late or it's that difficult.

    The vibes on this were a little off to me for reasons that other commenters pointed out, mainly that this acts like climate protestors are acting in opposition to the material interests of the working class because their protests aren't "clean" enough (protest gatekeeping being a classic antirevolutionary tactic) so I decided to look into the artist:

    I decided to stop there, seems like enough to glean a motive on this one.

    he does have a couple bangers though

      Without going too forensic on their profile my best guess is New Age / Star Seed -> Save the Children (Antivax / Q-lite) which is unfortunately a bigger pipeline than you'd think.

    :improve-society: we should stop pollution

    :very-intelligent: yet you pollute by throwing paint onto things. Curious!

      I usually hate the servants who clean my Daddy’s mansion

      You can tell he really does because the cleaners do not look like modern janitors at all while he went to great lengths to make the protesters look like they do in real life.

      LMAO didnt even notice that part. Any semblance of value in this piece just disappeared because the artist just had to add his own cheap, modern self-referencing form of "satire"

    If i knew how to paint i'd made one with the same title and arrangement but the peasants are trying to clean up an oil spill in a river from a nearby oil field.
