Scratching a stranger’s car is never okay.

The gallery took it down? That’s extremely disappointing. On the other hand, I’m glad that so many have seen it because of articles like this.

It is factual news. The artist, Vincent Namatjira, has done many paintings in this style.

Famous for his quirky style of painting, Namatjira is known as a ‘satirical chronicler of Australian identity’ whose “paintings offer a wry look at the politics of history, power and leadership from a contemporary Aboriginal perspective.”

The Archibald prize winning artist has used his unique style to paint notable figures from the Queen to Slim Dusty, usually to pretty good receptions.

I’m not sure “downvote” should be included in Opt-out. Some instances allow a poster to see exactly who downvoted them. If someone is saying something obnoxious or repulsive enough to consider reporting, there’s a good chance they’re doing it on purpose. I don’t need to be on their trolling shit list.

Out of context, “I still dont understand why we need bluesky” sounds like something an oil executive would say. In context, I completely agree.
