    So you’re saying that:

    1. some artists created these art pieces
    2. they were randomly hung up next to each other in an art gallery
    3. this became a meme
    4. somebody went and found a screenshot of a 2011 TV show AND a 2018 tumblr post that matched it
    5. that became a meme so popular that everybody forgot about the original and not even knowyourmeme remembers
    6. You, our savior, are here to remind us of the true origin of this meme

    Here’s a more plausible explanation:

    1. The art looks rather AI-generated in HD
    2. The photo isn’t from an art gallery but just somebody’s house, see link above where you can literally order these as decoration
    3. You forgot to fact-check before posting

    It’s crazy how little do we know about the history of the internet. And it all happened just a moment ago! Imagine how many things did we miss about the WWII or the dark ages. Was D-day a dick joke? Were kings and knights cosplyaing? Was holocaust just a prank, bro? We will never know.
