That's not very Jesus-like either. |  | |  |
| Trump v The Pope on 12:14 - Apr 14 with 315 views | DJR | Sky interviewed some people outside a church in the US: assume it was a Catholic church. Whilst they weren't happy with the image of the criticism of the Pope, they still all seemed to be fully supportive of Trump. Extending the analogy he once made, maybe they would only cease their support for him if he killed members of their own family. [Post edited 14 Apr 12:16]

| Trump v The Pope on 11:55 - Apr 13 by NthQldITFC | Can anyone with a handle on the old religion thingy tell what the sky imagery behind Tr*mp is? There seems to be a chap with a pointy hat and angel wings? Is that a religion thing or Star Wars or Wrestlemania? He's got to be seriously dissing someone with that - hopefully that's another chunk of his bum-lickers woke! |
The closest imagery I can relate it to would be the sculpture outside the "new" Coventry Cathedral of St Michael and the Devil: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ But weirdly, there are elements of both of those in the figure abov Trump. In Christian iconography horns are never a good thing! It's possibly just an AI slop regurgitation/echo of the Statue of Liberty, which is below and to the right as we look at it, rather than something directly prompted. Some people within the American Christian Right, who have been critical of the blasphemy of him depicting himself as Jesus, have interpreted the shadowy figures above and behind as demons beholding his power, but it would be more normal in Christian art for demonic figures to cower or turn away from a miracle or demonstration of Jesus's power. It's hard to put too much interpretation on any one aspect of the picture other than the central one, as it is clearly AI generated, and the prompt may not have directly asked for particular features which can be read back into the imagery. Christian art historically was used as a teaching aid, and so certain interpretive tropes develop over time (Jesus' mother Mary wearing blue, Mary Magdalene wearing red etc). These become the "rules of the game" of interpreting Western Christian art. An AI pastiche may not always have been prompted to display these details, even though Western Art history "trains" us to read them in to what we are observing. Stylistically it looks like it should be the cover of "The Ladybird Book of Batsh1t Crazy" to me. |  | |  |

I think it’s just AI slop that’s taken elements of the Statue of Liberty. The shape of the prongs are identical. Nobody seems to know, but it’s again handily distracted everyone from the Epstein files, America murdering schoolchildren and other civilians and also tanking the global economy (while US Banks and energy companies and some seemingly ITK traders are raking the money in). |  |
