"In the early 21st century, there was a genre of art where hands were drawn either with an incorrect number of fingers or other mutations. We believe this style of art was used for ritual purposes. Strangely, this movement of art lasted a very short period of time, from 2023 before gradually disappearing by around 2025"

EDIT for those who didn't get it, it's because some newer image generators draw better hands

I like to think they will think it was a kind of "aggressive architecture" to keep people away from looking at these pictures because they are cursed. Especially because, with everything happening all over the world, it is not too much to think that the future could be a dystopian, extremely religious world.
