Protester Photo Versus Drawing

Text on the meme

I-10 Fwy EAST I-5 Fwy SOUTH UNION STATION Alameda St DO NOT BLOCK

What it means

A bearded man wearing sunglasses, a black sleeveless shirt, and a patterned scarf points dramatically during a crowded street protest in front of Los Angeles road signs. Beside him is a crude black-and-white drawing recreating the same pose, making the comparison funny through its exaggeratedly rough style. This meme is used as a reaction to an iconic photo or to joke about low-effort artistic recreations.
