G20 Red Reaper

April 1, 2009

Impressive photos rolling out of the G20 summit on Flickr, such as this one. Big Ben looms as a silent witness to the giant blood-red reaper, surely slaying tiny, plump bankers, fleeing in the streets.

It’s certainly has a more profound visual effect than these jackasses, currently in constant rotation on US/UK TV news outlets. The same jackasses at any of these world summits, always in the front row, ecstatic they have a way better excuse to randomly raise shit and bust skulls than Arsenal’s loss to Man U. last week, in turn de-legitimizing the real, well-meaning protesters further back (some making the unfortunate choice to sport bongos), beyond SKY/CNN’s aperture and interest.
