Actually, the painter wrote a 6. They were commissioned to write a 6.
Fuck your perspective, people should consider the original intent and research rather than just argue about it. Calling it "free speech" doesnt make it right or moral.
Replace "original intent" with "context" and I agree 100% with you.
I think that this is important to point out because we don't really have access to each other's "intention" (whatever this means); at most what they say and do, and specially for politics there's often a big mismatch between the alleged intentions of a policy vs. what the policy achieves.
Or, playing along the pic: if that random scribble is between a "5" and a "7", then it means six, no matter if the author claims "actually it's a nine".
