    This isn’t about “good credentials”, the person making the post was actually an animator for Invincible (where the image is from).

    So it’s the artist posting a meme with their own art from a series, someone accusing them of stealing the art (saying they are as bad as AI) while the artist was actually part of the team that made the series. What is there not to get?

      And aside, memes are memes, that specific image conveys a concept in a way that another, custom made, image wouldn’t.

      I had no idea until you explained it. I’m not familiar with any of that content. So thank you.

        Not at all, but this is how this sub works. It usually goes:

        1. Person A posts something

        2. Person B tells them they stole it or have no clue about the topic

        3. Someone brings up that Person A is actually the owner of the thing, or a leading expert in the field (see the right side of the the meme in this case)

        4. (optional) Person B finds out they are dumb and apologize

          And at no point does OP actually explain what the fuck is going on, just act smug when we don’t immediately know what they’re on about.

        You’re expected to infer that it’s from one of the shows listed on the right, both because the creator’s name is listed there and because the community’s name is “Don’t You Know Who I Am?”

                If you need literally everything explained, that’s okay, but you have to understand that it’s not on everyone else to cater to your level of intelligence.

                  I mean, why share the joke when you can act smug towards people who don’t get it, right?

            Fair enough, but it was also a reference to Archer, a joke if you will.

            On the OP. I went from top left, than down, then to the right. Saw the meme template (I didn’t know what was it from), and read the replies. I saw the imdb page and thought “Oh, this meme must be from that show and he wrote it. Burn! Hah. That’s funny.”

            And that was it. A fairly certain conclusion given the context.

        I literally had never heard of Jessie Lam, or seen or heard of the invincibles before this post. I inferred that they were one of the artists for that show based on the words and context in the images in the 12 seconds it took me to read it.

        You’re just dumb, sorry buddy.
