I’m guessing sex tourism

Since it could be so many things like the other comments are pointing out, I think it's supposed to prompt conversation.
Show threadIlovethebombNov 24, 2023

This answer is such a cop out.

We’re having a conversation about how pointless and confusing the piece is, not the intended message.

Show threadfunkless_eckNov 23, 2023
Asian sex tourism, cf Gary Glittter

Dog I think this is just about pedophilia or which children each person figuratively hurts?
Show threadIanSomniaNov 23, 2023
I’m afraid to ask. What does the bottom left represent?
Show threadmuseNov 23, 2023
There's organ box next to them, maybe organ harvesting?
Show threadIanSomniaNov 23, 2023
Ah, that makes sense =/
Show threadyesmanNov 23, 2023

Prob some anti-medicine/ pharma/ vax or other conspiracy stuff. Organ harvesting from children isn’t a thing, unless that’s the conspiracy and we’re right back where we started.

The only reasonable thing I can think of is lack of access to healthcare, and I guess insurance people and lobbyists don’t have uniforms so they went with a doctor.

Show threadIanSomniaNov 23, 2023
I’m not thinking antimedicine. More like a criticism of the broken system.
Show threadTaleyaNov 23, 2023
Child organ trafficking is much rarer than sexual, but very much a thing that exists. Conspiracies may exaggerate, but don’t make the mistake of dismissing the existence entirely as a consequence
Show threadtacosanonymousNov 23, 2023
Wait. What’s the doctor one?
Show threadMaalusNov 23, 2023
Organ harvesting
Show threadtacosanonymousNov 23, 2023
But what’s the context? I’m completely unaware that doctors were murdering or sacrificing children to steal their organs.
Show threadDiplomjodlerNov 23, 2023
It’s a common conspiracy theory promoted by far right nutjobs.
Show threadIHeartBadCodeNov 23, 2023

That kid is way too young for organ harvesting though. Most of the demand for organs is from adults who need adult sized organs and kid organs won't keep growing in a body that's long stopped producing all the hormone indicators to signal for growth.

or... or, so I'm told.

Interesting, I assumed it would grow to fit

What always bugs me about this is that they had the boys in underwear. Like, if it’s fine to symbolize with clothed girls, why do you need to do it differently with boys?
Show threadnodsocketNov 23, 2023
Why do you care?
Show threadcrystalNov 23, 2023
Because sexism is bad
Show threadFoundTheVeganNov 23, 2023

100% with ya, the double standards are kinda crazy. The differnce between the first two panels is pretty stark in regards to the kid, even if the point is essentially the same.

My take is that male bodies need to exposed in order to be sexualized so they read vulnerable, but female bodies are can be read as sexualized and vulnerable regardless how they are presented. But that doesn't really explain panel 4 & 6.

Weird choices. If anyone knows who the artist is, I'd be curious how they would talk about this.

Show threadcredit crazyNov 23, 2023
With the priest it makes sense to me considering they are infomas for being pedophiles but the rest yea why couldn’t they have been clothed
Show threadStovetopNov 24, 2023
Especially since #1 and #2 are both instances of sexual violence.
Show threadspezNov 25, 2023
#2 is sex tourism in east-asian countries I think?
Show threadAngrilyEatingMuffinsNov 23, 2023
I think it’s Just more apparent
Show threadZinkNov 23, 2023
Because only the males are fit to actually dress like Jesus. /s
Show threadDe_NarmNov 23, 2023

Really unsure about the symbolism here. Didn’t Jesus die on the cross for our sins to be forgiven or something along those lines? So this kinda implies the abused children die to give forgivness to the people they are nailed to here…

Please correct me if I’m wrong, I’ve never been to a church and neither has anyone I know.

Show threadFancyManaclesNov 23, 2023
Even in religious circles the forgiveness part is normally left out. The phrase often repeated is “Jesus died for your sins” without any mention of forgiveness. Since that is the common turn of phrase then this depicts children suffering/dying because of the sins of someone else.
Show threadPantherinaNov 23, 2023
I mean this whole Jesus thing is pretty fucked up / meta, so I see no difference here
Show threadTheMightyCanuckNov 23, 2023
ITT: no one really knows what the hell the artist was trying to portray with this piece other than the blatantly obvious
Show threadRukmerNov 24, 2023
I feel like almost all of it is blatantly obvious everyone the surgeon with the cooler, since I’m not aware of any child organ harvesting epidemic (and I maybe don’t want to be).

catholic priests, sex tourism, war

Show threadgreedytacothiefNov 23, 2023

Or that children are being sacrificed to them. Crucification was a state punishment, so maybe they are trying to say that governments are complicit in the crime? Maybe?

Or maybe that children are our saviors/future, but they are being sacrificed on the backs of these topical issues?

Art is hard.

Show threadPantherinaNov 23, 2023
That abortion thing is messed up. The rest is true…
Show thread100_percent_a_botNov 23, 2023
It’s probably organ harvesting, not abortion
Show threadDultasNov 23, 2023
Organ harvesting. See the cooler.
Show threadRukmerNov 24, 2023
I am still so confused about this one. Is this like a thing? Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised anymore. All the rest is pretty real, we basically “sacrifice” children by giving religions so much power, war, unregulated fast food, etc.
Show thread100_percent_a_botNov 24, 2023
Big thing in many developing countries. There’s entire villages where many people give away their own organs or those of their children for the equivalent of a couple hundred bucks. Mostly kidneys, since you can live with one of them but still pretty messed up.
Show threadanti-idpol actionNov 25, 2023
Not so long time ago, at the dawn of this century this has been a substantial issue even in Europe, in Moldova. Now a big thing in Afghanistan.

I dont understand the middle one in the upper row and the left one in the bottom row. The rest are pretty obvious to me.
Show threadSendMePhotosNov 23, 2023

Upper middle I think is sex trafficking - used to be huge in Thailand.

Bottom left… Abortion?

Show threadAItoothbrushNov 23, 2023
Maybe but the bottom left looks like an organ transporting container and i dont think they use that for abortions. But ig its art even tho i dont agree with everything it represents.

Bottom left looks like forced organ harvesting? Not sure how often that actually happens to children, but the world is a fucked up place so it’s possible I suppose.

Kind of fucked up that the child in the bottom right has to pose for something he’s already experiencing
