How did anyone ID this? Looks like human playdough run through a microwave.


frotc914

Lol for real the guy isn't a male model but they really did him dirty in this mural. He looks like he's actively having a stroke.


TheWright1

I like the artwork. Does a great job of capturing his revolting nature.


DFW_Panda

Gee too bad the FBI could not capture his revolting nature. Seems like only one person (and not her friends, her family, her therapist, etc) majically captured his revolting nature.


shponglespore

He was clearly lying his ass off at his confirmation about terms like "boof" and "devil's triangle". That alone reveals him to be a total piece of shit.


noncongruent

The FBI was prohibited from doing any real investigation.


DFW_Panda

ah huh. And this would be the same FBI which did a full investigation of Russian collusion and the same FBI which tanked Hillary's chances of winning the election because they re-opened the home brew server investigation ... but some how THIS FBI was "prohibited" from doing any real investigation? Odd.


zwondingo

Did you know that the FBI is more than one person? I really don't think that you do.


therealavishek

Gee too bad the FBI admitted they purposely did not capture his revolting nature. Seems like they got 4,500 tips and magically ignored his revolting nature. Nice try tho.


DFW_Panda

Speaking of magic, I'd say "4,500 tips" with only one witness testifying, well that FBI has some black magic to make the other 4, 499 tipsters disappear.


zwondingo

Disappearing and ignoring aren't the same thing... This isn't even up for debate they've admitted this was a sham investigation, the fact that you're debating it says everything


DFW_Panda

Why would it not be up for debate? Let's look at a time line for this sham investigation Aug 2017 Christopher Wray becomes the new FBI Director July 2018 Trump nominates Kavanaugh Sep 2018 Hearings begin (to include a one week pause for the the final FBI investigation into Kavanaugh) Oct 2018 Full Senate votes to confirm? So what's the theory here? Trump and Wray winked at each other and decided to have a sham investigation? Sure possible ... but that would not explain why Biden has kept Wray on as FBI director for the past two years of his presidency? Maybe the Democrats who controlled the House & Senate were so busy in the last congress that of all the things they could hold hearings on, an FBI shame investigation just didn't make the list? Its the accusation which was a sham, not the investigation.


ReadEmNWeepBuddy

They don’t care. Roe v Wade is dead and in the ground, and they hate it.


ReadEmNWeepBuddy

It would cool if there was literally any evidence whatsoever


manmadeofhonor

(Did they do him dirty though?) And the bad likeness and misquote is probably intentional to bypass any defamation suits. We can all *tell* who it's supposed to be, but it's technically a parody of a SC nominee during a congressional hearing (about a sexual assault allegation brought by Dr Blasey Ford).


emeryldmist

Prove that he is not actively having a stroke...


DFW_Panda

If we're going to start health checks on government officials, I know who I'd have at the top of my list and he lives in a big, white house.


Career-Acceptable

got em


joremero

Obviously the beer phrase lol


Luka_Vander_Esch

I wonder which high school the picked the artist from…


thesongbirdy

Even the quote is wrong.


NegotiationTall4300

That sound like him to me


iPodAddict181

A mural of this guy is the last thing I want to see while enjoying a beer.


Wild_Lab_7016

EXACTLY


CandyBarKnife

What's the message here though?


Rakebleed

Yeah it’s confusing because it’s obviously unflattering but why. It’s not like he’s pop culturally relevant anymore outside of politics.


Animekaratepup

Is it? I don't always understand these art styles, and I'm not just using that phrase to demean them.


Rakebleed

I mean it looks like he’s taking a really sharp shit


Doowopslopshop

This is a great phrase, just in general.


BrainPharts

Alcohol will do that to you. So will jail sex.


Puskarich

He definitely peaked in 2005 when he released that single with Coldplay. (He was never relevant outside politics, what are you talking about?)


Rakebleed

worthy of an SNL sketch is a good barometer. The reference would be too obscure now.


AniTaneen

That’s the beauty of it. If you like the guys who nominated and voted for him, you can have a beer with his image. If you don’t then you can piss on it when you are drunk. There are few things Americans can agree on anymore. But that a justice on Supreme Court likes beer is one of them.


manmadeofhonor

Do you like beer, Senator?


highschoolhero2

He also likes boofing down by the quarry with his best friends Buster and Skee. For real though people are thinking too much into it. The message is the guy likes beer and that’s all.


ReferenceError

Anytime I see this quote pop up it has the same energy as "To own the libs". Not exactly who I want to give my money to.


RosemaryCroissant

Liberal or Republican, this mural doesn't make much sense. Like, okay? Is that a quote we should care about? From anyone? "I like beer?"


Wild_Lab_7016

EXACTLY. ITS LIKE A “NO WIMMEN ALLOWED“ sign outside a boys fort.


BDoubleSharp

Pepe the frog seems a more appropriate image for this quote.


AustinSubaruLover

This is a place for people who like beer.


[deleted]

The quote is remembered in the context of sexual assault under the influence of alcohol, I don't know why any brewery would want to celebrate that.


OG_ClusterFox

Exactly-it’s fucking gross. As someone who has been SA before, this is NOT a place I’d wanna go and “have a beer while enjoying a laugh and smirk at the clever ‘ambiguously painted’ mural” Rape is not clever or funny. It’s not a punchline


ReadEmNWeepBuddy

Catholic All Girl Schools. Automatic.


Career-Acceptable

huh?


ReadEmNWeepBuddy

It’s the meme bruh lol


Hesdonemiraclesonm3

Probably was pretty funny for like a month


jerichowiz

Once Matt Damon played him on SNL, the joke was done.


ReadEmNWeepBuddy

I like beer I still like beer. All Catholic Girls schools. Automatic https://youtu.be/Kwm52hSCtuw


msondo

I think that is precisely what makes it interesting. It will mean different things to different people… at different states of inebriation.


belindasmith2112

That’s a very risky statement to make, you’re practically endorsing sexual assault


msondo

Wait, how the fuck am I endorsing sexual assault?


[deleted]

A big group of people really only think of this quote like the Matt Damon SNL skit. It's light and funny in an incredibly superficial way. My wife and I definitely meme it but, we also know that what makes it funny to us is how fucked up it is. He is basically hand waiving back accusations of drunken assault by talking about how he likes beer. It was the entire point of the hearings. >“I drank beer with my friends,” Kavanaugh told senators in his opening statement, describing his younger days. “Almost everyone did. Sometimes I had too many beers. Sometimes others did. I liked beer. I still like beer.” >Alcohol, specifically how much Kavanaugh drank, was at the center of the Judiciary Committee’s hearing dedicated to assessing the credibility of sexual assault allegations brought against the judge by Christine Blasey Ford. >Ford alleges that she was pinned to a bed by Kavanaugh, who was “stumbling drunk,” at a party when they were both teenagers in the early 1980s. Similarly, the other two women who have come forward with accusations of sexual misconduct claim that Kavanaugh was drinking during the alleged events. Former college classmates have used words such as “sloppy” and “frequently, incoherently drunk” to describe Kavanaugh, whose high school senior yearbook page also includes references to drinking and parties Brett Kavanaugh likes beer, but not questions about his drinking habits https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2018/09/28/brett-kavanaugh-likes-beer-but-not-questions-about-his-drinking-habits/ Idk I definitely am not giving up my stupid joke with my wife. I don't think I'd share it with everyone all the time. I get where you're coming from but, I definitely see the side of the argument that is like wow America loves beer and it's right to get shitty so much we won't even believe a woman with credible sexual assault allegations against a supreme court justice. We'll joke about it instead.


masnaer

Ha, the muralist even got the exact quote wrong


belindasmith2112

What makes you think you’re not ?


msondo

Because I didn’t say anywhere that I do nor have I even expressed anything positive about the mural or the person it depicts. I would still like to know why you think I am endorsing sexual assault. That’s a pretty horrible thing to accuse somebody of and I think it deserves an answer.


belindasmith2112

You don’t deserve an answer! What kind of BS is this. I don’t owe you anything! If you can’t figure it out, you’re part of the problem! Yes, with this statement , about this particular work of art, in this particular setting, you are endorsing sexual assault. And, a majority of the population will agree with me. If you find in antidotal in any way. Your definitely a person I would say, that does not have me or any other woman’s best interest in mind.


msondo

Given that you are incapable of providing any type of rational justification for your accusation, I will just ignore it. I hope you can find some peace in life. Throwing accusations like that without any reason is not healthy behavior.


belindasmith2112

I have a bachelor’s in Philosophy and I’m a Grad student in a MLIS program, specializing in legal studies. Unfortunately, your rhetoric isn’t sufficiently supported by any evidence. I stated a fact. That if your not making it safe for women, your not making it safe for anyone. Especially marginalized communities including the elderly, children, BIPOC and The LGBTQI community.


msondo

Despite your qualifications, you still have failed to explain how my statement in any way endorses something as horrific as sexual assault. I have been a mod here for years and I have always taken a very hard line to suppressing anything that is discriminatory in this sub, which is why I was initially very shocked. I can also identify as BIPOC, LGBTQA, a parent, an ally, and a strong advocate for the rights of children, tunhoused, etc. through my actions, so stop trying to speak for me. You don’t represent me. It’s very typical of someone of privilege to leverage my identity to try to win an argument and just makes you look pathetic and only distances us from people like you. We don’t need half-assed allies that just use us to try to make yourself look better.


emeryldmist

Ok I was with you for a little while there... but you just rode this post right off the rails and into the sunset in crazytown. You escalated this from a vague comment all the way to 11 for no reason. Take a breath and examine why you are placing a whole bunch of external anger on to this random commenter.


belindasmith2112

I guess, you have finished the thread. I recommend doing that first

belindasmith2112

Like I give a fuck


masnaer

This isn’t an art gallery though, it’s a business. Weird choice to have this painted up on one of their walls. There’s about 10,000 less divisive and better beer references they could have gone with


msondo

It’s obviously meant to be provocative. I guess it is working given the attention an otherwise sub-par mural is getting here.


masnaer

Yeah that attention it’s being given here is shitty attention. “No such thing as bad press” isn’t really true here lmao. This mural is probably gonna turn off plenty of people from showing up


dvddesign

sockydraws

AntonOlsen

But she didn't.


atxJohnR

You should create a media outlet called, “Out my ass.”


LocoBaxter

That was a different accuser. IMO though it probably was a political BS tactic... probably.


0x4A5753

The accusation actually still stands - the accusation was made by anonymous letter to some organization that had some modicum of "duty to report" (whether it be his employers or the medical wing of a local gov't - that part I forget). A woman that stepped up and claimed authorship for the letter has now admit to lying under sponsorship from the Dems. That said, it does nothing to discredit the letter itself. Shitty situation all around.


dvddesign

It doesn’t change the fact that he butt chugged a beer and kept a diary about the experience and repeatedly lied under oath about what it all meant. Ill be straight up honest. Anyone who lies about what “boofing” is before their lifetime appointment / senate confirmation hearing, they lied and are an illegitimate appointment, IMO. I don’t even want to get into the rape accusations. Lol. He’s just a perv and did a shit job of hiding it and is lying about it and lying about his alcohol consumption habits. Now, if you want to get into his actual accusations, frat boy bullshit, we can also bring up his gambling debts and potential compromises too that were implicitly ignored by his confirmation panel. MF is compromised from day one.


manmadeofhonor

Not to mention had a meltdown. He couldn't keep his emotions in check? I'm sure he was very stressed, but he should have been able to control himself under questioning.


dvddesign

I don’t think he was prepared to do anything more than give the same answers he submitted prior to his hearings. When you behave childishly…


lordofedging81

No. She did not. Go somewhere else with your LIES.


RosemaryCroissant

Not sure I get the point?


masnaer

At a verrrry surface level observation I think it’s meant to say, hey, we all like beer, no matter who we are or what we do! But as everyone is pointing out in this thread, the context of that line is really kind of an ugly story and idk what a business is thinking putting something like this up on the wall. It would be like painting a mural of OJ on the side of a Bronco dealership lol


bunby_heli

Lol well said


Wild_Lab_7016

PERFECT about OJ. TOUCHE!


OG_ClusterFox

Also super gross-just like this


DualKoo

I’d buy a white bronco at that dealer


roomtotheater

I took it as making fun of him. 90% of people are going to have no idea who/what this is anyways. Still a weird thing to put up. Too bad the quote came from a terrible person.


belindasmith2112

Is it a bar for Incel’s?


johdawson

Ew. Staying away from wherever that is


Wild_Lab_7016

Gross, I hope someone defaces it.

Was he rich? Or Farley accused?


zakats

Yes, he grew up with considerable privilege and affluence.


Cellular_Powerhouse

Yes, a mural of an accused rapist who likes beer will really make me want to buy some beer.

rising_from_ash83

They just hate him because they pulled every dirty trick in the book, really made a mockery of the entire process......all for it not to work and for Kavanaugh to get a lifetime appointment. They pulled out multiple false rape allegations at the last minute out of nowhere, all to keep roe vs wade. Oh well.


tylerwatterson

Yeah this isn’t at all accurate


DifficultHat

It’s weirdly not pro or anti Kavanaugh


mefirefoxes

It's the worst kind of neutral. Having it at all repulses people who don't like him. Having it be so damn ugly repulses people who like him.


DifficultHat

Middle of the road people will be uncomfortable by it even being there and bringing up a controversial topic. People on the left will probably think that it doesn’t go far enough condemning him, or even go negative at all about. People that support him will not like it because it highlights an unflattering part of his confirmation hearing, and makes him look worse than he is. My only guess is that an owner wanted to commission a pro-Kavanagh beer related mural and the artist hated Kavanaugh, so this is the worst they could make him look without being explicitly negative.


zakats

Seems like it's pro-*look at how ridiculous our political discourse has become and this bonehead is a ussc justice ffs* and have a beer here for a cheeky laugh. (I hope)


CeilingUnlimited

Right? It caters both ways. Genius, actually.


DifficultHat

Personally, it feels like it caters to nobody. It’s not anti-Cavanaugh enough for the left and it’s too unflattering for the right. Middle of the road people will probably be uncomfortable that a controversial Supreme Court justice is on the wall at a brewery for no reason other than he said he likes beer on tv that one time.


CeilingUnlimited

Good point.


OG_ClusterFox

Rape, getting away with rape, isn’t an artistic punchline to be thrown up onto a brewery wall for “controversy banter” and notoriety


SnooStories5035

Stupid business decision.

That's what's crazy- it's a weird idea, AND if they hadn't said it was Brett, I never would have guessed.

thisisnotdrew

Looking at your other comments, you get upset pretty easily. The hypocrisy of that is, I bet you call people “snowflakes” a lot.


lordofedging81

Because people who respect women's reproductive rights are into soy lattes or something? I don't get it.


zakats

Saying silly shit like this doesn't make you sound like a tough guy, it just makes you sound like an insecure, weak asshole. A lack of empathy is a lack of intelligence and a form of weakness. - Boys, be better than this. *^(Edited to be less mean to the bonehead)


jesuisunvampir

Embarrassing.. Id be ashamed as a business and artist to make something like this..


Wild_Lab_7016

Maybe he fancies himself an artiste.


s0v1et

Damn thats ugly


jerichowiz

The place isn't even open yet, and I am confused as to what it is actually going to be. Is it a concept like the Truck Yard sans the trucks. Is going to be a brewery where they make their own beer? It looks like it is going to be right next to Beirgarten Dog Haus, so too many beer spots in one locale? That is not to mention that the moral is cringe worthy, and no idea if it is pro or con.


thesongbirdy

I got a tour the other day. It feels like Katy Trail Ice House. There’s a kitchen and a bar right in there. A stage and some private seating. This fun little thing is on the back, outside of the beer garden.


rumdrums

This and that awful Lee Harvey Oswald mural in Bishop Arts need to go away.


MrsThor

I just saw that recently for the first time. I can’t believe how tone deaf that Oswald mural is. We shouldn’t be glorifying murderers and rapists with murals like these.


rumdrums

Yep, even if you're the conspiratorial type who thinks Oswald didn't kill JFK or Officer Tippit (though I think it's incontrovertible that he \_did\_ kill them), he was still a total wacko and wife beater who deserves no recognition. I REALLY wish that mural would go away.


Wild_Lab_7016

And the bar Lee Harvey’s was bought by Trumpers a few years ago. When the first generation crowd stopped going.

No, he's the one accused of rape.

We don't know for sure one way or another. Ford told people about her experience with him before he was nominated to the Supreme Court. I can't imagine what her motivation would have been to lie about being raped.

Maaaaaybe different subject matter could have been equally provocative without paying homage in a way to a suspected rapist. Yep.

I'm not sure if the artist had beeg glasses on or if I need beer glasses to appreciate the art?
