What bothers me about this meme is that capitalism didn't exist back then, so Jesus couldn't have been an anti-capitalist, but solid commentary otherwise.

Perhaps you can argue he was an anti-capitalist in spirit.

I think this is meant more as a mirror to the current "patriots", fighting for the "good cause".

I'm well aware of that.

Funny. Pilate wash his hands from Pharisees bloodshed.

Dunno why Andy is depicting Romans who allowed Jews to kill an innocent man.

The State abdicating responsibility for murder is a very state like thing to do. It's like when the priest says "By the power vested in me..." at a wedding. They can try to shrug off the blame but everyone knows onto whose shoulders this responsibility falls.

That's not how responsibility works, esp. in the killing of Yawshua. Jews killed him with stolen tools of the state. Pilates washed his hands of their murder, and so did the state. This is exactly like when the KKK lynched minorities all the while the state ignored their apartheid praxis.

I think calling the state's participation in the klan's horrors of the Jim crow South "ignoring" is an odd choice. That's like saying the Israeli government "ignores" settler violence.
