Jane, who is in seventh grade, seemed unfazed by her victory when reached by phone after school on Wednesday. She drew the demiclad werewolf in about an hour using a pencil case’s worth of felt-tip pens.

“It kind of just came to me,” she said.

She had not initially been enthusiastic when her social studies teacher told students about the contest. But inspiration struck when another teacher put on a movie during class. She said she nailed the design on her first try.

“I didn’t want to do something that usually you think of when you think of Michigan,” she said. “I was like, ‘Why not make a wolf pulling his shirt off?’”

Amy Hynous, Jane’s mother, added, “It’s a strong symbol, and Jane’s very passionate about art.”

Hudson Rowan, 14, submitted an unconventional design that many say captures the feeling of politics today.

The kids are truly wiser than any of these old fucks running things

I wonder how Hudson Rowan is doing today. I hope he is doing well. Wild to think that he probably has no idea there is a niche political internet forum using his drawing to this day. Granted its only been 2 years but I would have forgotten about it by then at that age

In two years he'll be old enough to post here, and with any luck xe/they will be welcomed as a hero of Hexbear.

Why are 12 year olds being indoctrinated about voting

[-] Pentacat@hexbear.net 26 points 2 months ago

They are forced to stand for the pledge of allegiance every day. Gotta brainwash them because if it doesn’t work by high school, a lot of them become teenagers who think murdering people and stealing their land is bad.

[-] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 18 points 2 months ago

Because Otherwise it's an obviously absurd premise, so they trick them early, same reason why they force kids to say the nazi pledge of allegience

It's best to start believing in American exceptionalism decades before she gets her first outrageous medical bill.

Werewolves'll just be howling and pulling their shirts off this november. No time for 'voting' or whatever the genocidaires are calling their coronations now

[-] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

Dogmen are an occurrence in Michigan cryptid lore, so this really is appropriate.
