Meme via ps4k

I remember during the Barry Obama campaign, I really got behind this meme of Obama representing 'hope.' Artist Shephard Fairey really found a way to take memes to the mainstream and have them be 'more than just an image that is freely traded on the internet.' His viral art created a timeless hit that will hang in the Obama Presidential Museum on the campus of Art Institute Chicago.

Can't believe Lance Armstrong hired the same meme designer to make his own propaganda/brand+identity. I think that Lance Armstrong created 'hope' after he beat cancer and conquered Europe, so it makes me kinda sad that he had 2 piggyback on the Obama meme. Feel like his brand is strong enough already, and he created something that has already transcended mainstream global culture with the LIVESTRONG BRACELET. [via Nike branding]

I just hope that mainstreamers are able to actually appreciate/notice that these 2 iconic memes are by the same designer bro. H8 when the world doesn't appreciate cobranding, but also kinda h8 when things 'aren't original' since I want everything to come from an authentic life force.

Remember when Livestrong bracelets came out and there was a supply shortage of these items? Just wanted an authentic accessory as a tween/cool dad/dad-who-wants-his-son-to-love-sports to take my brand to the next level.

Do yall support the memes of Shephard Fairey, or do u prefer the Patrick Moberg crafted Obama meme entitled 'The Odd Man Out.'

Just want to be a bro who transcends and inspires society with a universal message

Just want to be an authentic bro

Authentic broisism is the way of the future.
