That actor who faked his own mugging should get an Oscar, I think.
No! He should host the Oscars!
Anyway, that's not what this entry is about because this entry is about the blood red #MeToo painted on that statue of the man (war) in a sailor uniform sexually assaulting a woman (peace) in a nurse's uniform in celebration of Japan's surrender in WWII shortly after the US dropped a couple of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki killing thousands of innocent civilians.
I like it a lot because it drew my eye to the woman in white's leg, reminding me of those stories people told about the women of France drawing a black line up the back of their legs to look like they were wearing stockings so that American soldiers would give them a piece of chocolate in exchange for syphilis.
Kidding!
I support the troops no matter whose lives they're destroying. And the women of France, too.
No, seriously, I just really like that blood red #MeToo on the leg of the woman in white.
Funny how no one complained that the statue is almost a complete inversion of the original photo and the mass-produced poster that followed it, though. I mean the statue may as well not have the man in it at all, it's so all about the woman.
Geez, men, it's like you can't catch a break, anymore.
Aw crap. Some kiss ass corporate philistine wiped it off.
Never mind.
