Oh he just draws the buildings like he imagines them on fire, I first thought he would just happen across burning banks by "random chance"

[–] [email protected] 53 points 4 days ago

Strange how he is accidentally always there when it happens, right.

Imagine standing in front of a burning building and pulling out your easel and paint brushes and just painting what you see. Would be a bit of a dick move.

How else are we going to get pictures when no one can afford cameras and phones in the US anymore?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago

If you think cameras are expensive, you should see how much nice paint costs.

That's a Bitcoin logo on his t-shirt. This isn't the anti-capitalist superhero y'all are looking for.

I'm sure the front line employees at those branches making a buck or two above minimum wage appreciate some guy painting the building they are currently occupying on fire.

He's doing this with branches not headquarters, do you thing the CEO is in your neighborhood bank?

Go buy his NFTs if you love it so much:

And he's wearing a picture of a wave, which means he's probably trying to get fascism implemented into schools. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wave_(1981_film)

^ this might be sarcasm, irony or some variation, so you better take it seriously, just in case

If one of those bank employees saw the painting it would probably give them a chuckle.

But I'm sure it feels good to whine

Threats against the space you occupy stop being funny after your first armed robbery

I literally worked at Wells Fargo and thought this was funny

I'm sure typing that comment gave you a nice squirt of dopamine tho so congrats on the gotcha and drugs

The logo of the banks being never obscured is definitely a choice. 10/10 love the technique and brush strokes

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Ahah

The picture also includes a very nice guillotine (I'm French and I approve the message), very ominous.

Really seems like this guy has some kind of grudge toward banks...

[–] [email protected] 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Looks more like a gallows, no?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Correct.

I discussed it with my French fellow Bourreaux and they are very much shocked that such primitive technology could be used to execute people, that's savage!

Well it's for bankers so maybe that's fine.

This is absolute art.
