    super close! in thanks for your effort i will reward the thread with the rest. the face is that of Destiny, a debate streamer on Twitch who is pro-apartheid Israel lowkey and evil. so it’s a bit of a pun on his name and the title of the painting.

      Holy shit. I knew the painting was about manifest destiny. I knew that was the face of the streamer Destiny. I somehow completely missed the pun. I’m ashamed. I kept thinking there had to have been some sort of weird online drama I just hadn’t heard about. It’s a pun. I LOVE puns. My shame is immense.

        I don’t know why people call him left at all. He is very pro capitalism and somewhat progressive on some issues. He is a right wing liberal. He is also a selfdescribed islamophobe and expressed sympathy for Kyle Rittenhouse actions. He has debated nazis, which may make nazis call him left. But there are also clips of him being very chummy with Nick Fuentes.
