It seems like the tattoos are real, but the “MS13” above them and text below are (obviously) added as “explanation”. I would hardly call it a fake image.

Of course the interpretation of those tattoos to mean “MS13” is a huge stretch. Marijuana + Smiley = MS? A cross equals 1 because what, it’s tall? A skull equals 3 because it has two eye holes and a mouth?

Do you think anyone who already genuinely believes Kilmar is a member of MS-13 would interpret that picture to mean anything other than that he has “MS13” literally tattooed on his knuckles?

Yes all of them, if they werent told why they were guessing

You can see chuds' obsession with numerology and finding hidden meanings in things that don't exist (like "body language" experts) really coming out with this one. MS13 members proudly put those letters all over their body. This man has a marujuana leaf, a smiley face, a cross and a skull on his fingers and hogs say it means MS13. Absolutely deranged people.

Seems like tattoos most hogs might have anyways

Whenever they do discount days at my local tattoo parlor all of these are one of the $15 options.

Damn that's cheap. We used to have $13 flash tattoos for friday the 13th where I live but now they are $43 with an included mandatory $30 tip, which like, I get it the workers deserve to get paid but that is a huge increase in just a few years.

Last time I saw them for that price was ~4 years at tbh, and that shop is now gone (they were in a brewery and the owner shut it down)

aww, the word "netizens" really takes me back.

Netcasts you love, from people you trust.

This is going to make a great meme format

No, no, couldn't be, why would it ever be fake? Not in my administration..!

MS-13 tattoos according to what court? According to what jury? Which crime is he accused of committing, exactly?
