The moment this picture showed up online my girlfriend said the exact same thing. It took less than 48 hours for this to turn out to be proven true.
Really hoping the White House freaks out about this like Australia did ~3 years ago over the Afghanistan art
That artist is so fucking good

Oh it is and the wiki page has high res copies of them all https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wuheqilin
What is this picture from?
CW - war crimes
TAIPEI, Taiwan — Australia summoned the Chinese ambassador on Monday and demanded an apology after a Chinese Foreign Ministry official tweeted a graphic, computer-generated illustration of a grinning Australian soldier holding a knife to the throat of an Afghan child, an image designed to criticize Australia's involvement in the war-torn country.
Ooh context?
The image was retweeted by Zhao Lijian. He was such a great spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs lol.
Aussie SAS committed a bunch of war crimes in Australia, look up David McBride for the run down
Oh yeah I know about McBride just not about the art thing
The Australian media freaked the fuck out about this picture doing the rounds on the internet but because they couldn't deny that the war crimes happened, the best argument they could muster was "well Akshully this isn't a real photo".
Like no shit, war crimes don't happen on huge flags of the countries involved.
Lol, the media calling it a "doctored image" was hilarious.
Me a reporter for the media standing in the Louvre: "So as you can see, this picture of "Mona Lisa" is actually just a doctored painting of a real person, not ACTUALLY the real Mona Lisa who lived in the 16th century Italy and that wasnt even her real name!! More at 11 we're following this story as it develops."
Not only was this a criticism of the Australian war crimes committed, but a bunch of media outlets published articles "debunking" the artwork, stating, "No, an Australian soldier, in fact, did not slit the throat of a child on top of an Australian flag. It is an artistic fabrication by a Chinese artist"
The west is cooked. This isn't even lack of media literacy. It's not knowing the mirror is just a reflection and not a clone lol
the great firewall is for our protection
Please Xi. My people yearn for freedom
There was a conservative push to get the preamble about immigrants removed from the statue of liberty.
There are some fucking banger comments on XHS, read one that was along the lines of
"Siding with Russia or Ukraine is a matter of where you get your information from.
Siding with Palestine or Israel is a matter of whether or not you're an actual human"
i'll hand it to the french, they gave us a statue that's way too dope for this shitty country
