He would want to be remembered this way, and I think we should honor his wishes.
This is art

if this is a troll, then it definitely is a troll king

It’s great when art is so bad that it’s hard to tell if the artist is trolling or just terrible.

Reminds me of the unintentionally hilarious statue of nathan bedford forrest, and for exactly the same reasons.

I knew it was him before I clicked. The resemblance is hilarious :D

I am utterly convinced that someone in the process of that statues creation either hated the Confederates or Forrest in particular. Also that is the only confederate statue I wouldn’t scrap.

That was unintentional?

I can’t bring myself to mock something that someone probably made out of genuine love. It makes me too sad. No matter how much of a piece of shit Charlie might have been.
Mocking it feels like the opposite of empathy. I know how much he didn’t believe in empathy, but as usual, he was wrong. So I’m displaying some. Not for him. But for whoever made this for him.

If the person who made this genuinely loved Charlie Kirk, then it is 100% they are a bigoted asshole. So you should not feel bad about mocking it in the slightest.

I guess I just assumed it was s child. Based on the skill level.

Some day, they’ll learn what he was. If that doesn’t put an end to any residual positive feelings for him, I don’t have a shit to give about how they take the well-deserved vicious mockery.

I empathise with a will to make art out of genuine passion, but I empathise even more so with the ability to keep your eyes open on wether the result represents your intentions and how to make it to do so.
Like, I’m genuinely frustrated every time i see people compliment a genuinely bad artwork. Yes, no one wants to discourage the artistic tendencies in anyone, as it feels cruel to do so, but damn, are you even sharing your work because of your satisfaction with it, becaure you want to know how to do better, or are you doing so simply to get a cheap serotonine boost, because you know i’m too polite to tell you that your artwork sucks?

I could but I honestly think the person who made this is mentally challenged, the text varying in size is usually indicative of a mental disorder.
