Image impact

[asterroc]

Having a very interesting conversation with Foxtrot comparing a couple of images. Rather than recreating the discussion here, I'll post the two images and see what y'all think of them.



Edit: Some people weren't seeing the proper image on the left before. I replaced it with a different version of the image, should work now.

Ugh, you're right. I read it as Middle Eastern people (ethnicity), and I understand that not all such people are Muslims. However as an emotional piece it makes me totally forget that intellectually and smush them all together so that when I read it I get race and religion mixed up. Bleh. That's why I hate these sorts of things.
