I sort of assume given the content of the mural and the essential absurdity of cordoned off street art that the abhorrence of the stunt is, indeed, what the artist is trying to communicate with the piece. Of course, it's possible that the artist isn't doing an irony and that this is completely earnest. gently caress if I know.

If they can afford to hire round the clock security for a mural then they're probably a poo poo

It's only """"ironic"""" in so far as they have plausible deniability. It's not even that good of a mural, so likely a marketing stunt, but it's still sick, and a product of a sick society.

Of course anyone who wants to make even more money would just reinforce the dysfunctional behavior patterns instead of trying to help resolve them, or there's a third option: "I'm required to remind you to stop being a creepy weirdo, but for the $3.25/mo subscription you can opt out. You worthless poo poo."

https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2018/06/exclusive-neanderthal-minibrains-grown-dishquote:Until now, researchers wanting to understand the Neanderthal brain and how it differed from our own had to study a void. The best insights into the neurology of our mysterious, extinct relatives came from analyzing the shape and volume of the spaces inside their fossilized skulls.

I wanna see the grant proposal for this. I have this theory that William Gibson must have taken a bunch of peyote, wrote a draft for a new novel, and mailed it to the wrong address. And these guys were like "hell yeah"
