The fact that it's done as a triptych, and it's not divided into three acts or scenes really highlights the concept of form over function that the right so dearly holds.
The fact that it also kinda follows the rule of thirds makes it even more bizarre. They took the character of interest (Trump) and split him in half between the two panels, but left the cock and balls at another point of tension, implying some sort of sexual tension between the figures?
The one upside I see is that you can swap out the middle and right thirds as needed to change the good and bad politicians when Oceania changes to always have been at war with Eastasia.
I think it's just because that particular Joan Fabrics didn't have a single canvas that was big enough on the Wednesday afternoon that the artist's clinical manic episode compelled her to produce this.
Literally the first thing I thought after parsing out the really cartoonish image was “why is this a triptych and not just on a single canvas?” Of course the answer is “because conservatives.” What a weird waste of time and money. Also I don’t personally want to know who these ghouls are but it might be good for society to know who these nasty little goblins are in case they enter Starbucks or the local Wage Theft Establishment.
what’s interesting about contemporary christianity is that it’s not even all that clear if the idea of “eternal damnation” is something that’s actually supported by the scripture. and yet it’s such a fundamental part of modern christianity, especially for the so-called “god-fearing christians”.
If you go strictly by the bible, there is not eternal damnation, only in a sense that in the final judgement at the end of the end times, those who do not make it into heaven are simply destroyed, not sent to burn forever in hell.
I assume Trump is supposed to be the angel wielding the flaming sword that guards Eden, although technically the actual passage (at least the NIV translation, which I'm using because it popped up first on my Google search) implies God ejected Adam and Eve and then placed the angel to stand guard after:
22 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” 23 So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side[e] of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.
Well you see, STDs were his Vietnam, so he dodges the burn of the sword like he dodged the burn of gonorrhea (presumably), and incidentally, as he dodged the draft
Someone please explain to me why a bacchinalia with drag queens, and LGBTQ people is blasphmous to the point of ruining the Olympics, but this bullshit painting isn’t blasphemous at all.
An angel of God expelling Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden, but with Trump as the angel; Biden and Kamala as Adam and Eve; and the White House as the Garden of Eden.
It's meant to show Adam and Eve being cast out of the garden of Eden. Trump is depicted as an angel holding a flaming sword, which is a reference to this Bible verse:
He drove out the man, and at the east of the garden of Eden he placed the cherubim and a flaming sword that turned every way to guard the way to the tree of life.
Genesis 3:24 NIV
The artist is trying to imply that the Biden administration's choices will cause them to be expelled from the White House (the "garden"), and that Trump (an "angel") will be instated by God to prevent them from ever returning.
I'll have to ask my older bro. He gave me GaMEChld as my original screen name for AOL back when I was around 10, circa 1995. It's possible he was referencing that.
Nothing is weird when you've lost all meaning and comprehension to it. That's why they heavily rely on dementia, where the only thing that's weird is everything outside of memory lane and the feelings for it.

As they say, it buggers belief.
Hehe buggers belief ;)
I thought it was "beggars belief"?
You'd bugger Belief too if you saw 'em.

You know they only shop at hobby lobby and only it at chickfillet.
they are so bad at every form of art it's unbelievable

The artist could put more time into their life drawing skill too.
How much time do you have?
They're weird.
If i was religious at all, that would be the heighth of blasphemy and deserving of eternal damnation

Fucking Paul again
That’s how the Episcopalians teach it.
And Adventists
Trump ticks so many false prophet/antichrist boxes, it's insane, yet Christians love him somehow
I mean that's also one of the tickboxes
I imagined some really dry delivery to this line and it made me chuckle
There's more than one Christian that's noted that, including Christians on the right.
Is this supposed to imply that Biden and Harris are Adam and Eve?
Wouldn't read into it too much. Your efforts won't be rewarded.
I say "Never try to ascribe rational motivations to irrational actors."
They ate from the forbidden coconut tree.
It's the coco fruit (the coco fruit)
Of the coco tree (the coco tree)
Of the coco palm family! (Lalala)

You are putting far more thought in the presence of far more knowledge of the Bible than the artist has.
If so, then trump is God? A bit sacrilegious, eh?

This is no more than an elaborate soyjak/chad shitpost
We truly live in the parks and rec timeline
Parks and Rec and The Simpsons are just pan-dimensional humanity from the far future trying to communicate with us Interstellar-style
We always have. A lot of Parks and Rec is based off of real town hall meetings.
Honest to God thought it was a parks and rec screenshot before I actually looked at the painting.
I wish
Straight to jail.
It's baby sized because you can fit an entire baby inside.
That's not how you hold a sword.
You're both saying sword wrong. It's pronounced sword, not sword.
I think if you xray the painting you can see an AR-15
Painting drawn to skill.
She really spent a lot of time making Biden extra muscular. Weird.
I'm in awe of Kamala's FUPA
Oh. That’s not tim walz? Even more weird.
Really demonstrating some wild mental health with this one.
All very well-adjusted, upstanding citizens. Not weird at all.
Conservatives are just fucking gross.
Biden and Kamala has NOT skipped leg day.
Or hand day apparently. Getting a real man hands Seinfeld vibe from Kamala
Righto that’s enough internet for me today lads night night I’m off to bed 🛌
I feel like a flaming sword would conduct heat and burn your hand
Depends on how you make the grip, could use insulating materials around the hilt to keep the heat from conducting
Please don’t try to make this painting plausible. For all of our sakes.
Well you see, STDs were his Vietnam, so he dodges the burn of the sword like he dodged the burn of gonorrhea (presumably), and incidentally, as he dodged the draft
Flaming swords have existed far longer than this painting.
I'm pretty sure flaming swords don't exist at all.
Those are some ungodly proportions.
She looks like she's been crying.
She's drunk. Look at the wine glass in her hands.
Yeah, cuz drunk people never cry...
I despise this.
He really nailed Biden with that Trump-sized penis.
Them probably
Someone please explain to me why a bacchinalia with drag queens, and LGBTQ people is blasphmous to the point of ruining the Olympics, but this bullshit painting isn’t blasphemous at all.
I can't because it is.
What’s that painting even trying to depict?
An angel of God expelling Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden, but with Trump as the angel; Biden and Kamala as Adam and Eve; and the White House as the Garden of Eden.
Now I regret asking, but thanks, I guess
Thanks I Hate It?
Cool. We're reinventing Mormonism.

Well again thanks, I have gotten more info than I wanted. Sorry to waste your time
That was pretty thorough, thank you for that
Trump looks pretty cute in a peach-colored dress.
This is allowed but AI nudes aren't?
W乇ﾉ尺り
It's beyond weird and just abject cringe
The lady looks like a clean shaven Walter White, and the dude looks like Mike.
Why is it in three? Were they unable to find the right sized canvas? Also, most importantly, wtf is this?
pretty sure it's based on the angel of God driving Adam and Eve out of the garden of Eden lmao
Wow, that's insane. Thank you for explaining.
Does this make Trump Lucifer?
Looks like Adam and eve being expelled from the garden, so that angel wouldn't be lucifer if I'm remembering correctly.
Surprised the artist didn't make him god somehow though, like just put his big stupid face up in the clouds watching the scene happen
this is not satire, i presume?
somebody please hand me a rope
Unfortunately I don't believe it's satire
As long as you remember not to die for your beliefs, or however that Patton saying goes.
yeah, there is that. makes a lot of sense.
No way, Trump is just like Kefka from Final Fantasy VI! He's here to
establish a global cultsave us all!Is your username a reference to the GameChild, as seen on Ashens?

I'll have to ask my older bro. He gave me GaMEChld as my original screen name for AOL back when I was around 10, circa 1995. It's possible he was referencing that.
Edit: he said no, amusing coincidence though!
Wow, that's.. a long time ago. I don't think it's a reference to that GameBoy knockoff, then.
I like the triptych. American politics is insane, but I like the triptych.
I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

Composition lacking.
Needs Jesus riding a saddled stegasoras.
I'm beginning to understand why conservatives love the idea of AI art so much.
Looks like they meant to make it a triptych, but
the middle panel has to be twice as big as the side panels or you can't close it properly
each panel is supposed to depict a different scene
a triptych kinda seems more like catholic stuff idk
