        https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_of_Speech_(painting)

        But most often used on Hexbear as either an equivalent to eric-andre OR to make fun of someone for speaking their very dumb truth OR thanks to the layers of irony that everything on Hexbear has to actually express admiration for the view a person has stated.

        or just that it’d be funny to imagine the guy in the picture saying that

        It’s all about context. In this case, if someone stole the floor at a town hall to announce that “whoever first created autoplaying videos should be impaled” most people would definitely look at them confused and a bit appalled but we’d probably applaud it.

        Oh and for broader internet meme lore: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/freedom-of-speech-norman-rockwell-painting

        I think it’s a Norman Rockwell painting called “Freedom of Speech.”

          And a funny thing about this series of paintings is that one of them is titled freedom from wantthank you so much franklin delano roosevelt and I sure has hell am not free from need much less want, and those of us who are fighting for it sure seem like the minority lately.

            Number must go up, no matter what, and in many cases, the cruelty is the point anyway. capitalist-laugh
