As one of our mutual friends once said...”Even bad men love their mama.”

“A boy’s best friend is his mother.”

Leftists, by any brand name, don't like beauty.

THE 45 COMMUNIST GOALS AS READ INTO THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD, 1963

22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”

Because all black women are fat?

The welfare money comes per kid.

There’s a simple solution to getting rid of these.

Just tell everyone they have copper inside - they’ll be gone by next morning.

[cowboyusa]

Beat me to it.

[fuzzylogic]

imho...it’s because it was decided and funded at ‘peak wokeness’. Where fat, black, lesbian, females were the most ‘intersectionally marginalized’ people. It’s ‘victimhood’ encapsulated in all aspects.

They’ll just be remembered as a failed era.

I think this is interesting.

The women are typically in a proud, and usually defiant stance. This can be analogized to the shotacon cartoons or AI images of diminutive boys with enormous penises. It seeks to elevate these pathetically fat powerless angry black ladies into some imagined power position.

Also similar to depicting the Native American in warrior dress on a beautiful horse, instead of sitting cross legged in the front of a government hut on some dilapidated Indian Reservation where we would actually find them.

Truly pathetic.

Holy Carp! DEI tribute Food Stamp War statues.

“Apparently it is ok now to tear down a statue you find offensive.”

No. These statues have no purpose, just like who they represent.

7 out of 10 black families are run by fat black women.

[glorgau]

Someone is feeding them and they’re reproducing.

We need a Joe Tex statue.

Big booty art from the way back

[UnwashedPeasant]

Probably a taxpayer-funded grant.

[alternatives?]

In real life there are a lot more fatter than these.

[subterfuge]

Gotta use up that budget. Preferably on the most useless thing possible. Success!
