Well, that was weird... 😃 After your first sentences, I had to agree with your objection... Also, I tried to find some of the portraits that would bring a "positive" emotion in me, but I failed to do so... As a matter of fact, it got even worse toward the end... lol...
But I suppose the author accomplished what he wanted... He got an "emotion" from viewers, and that is the purpose of art...

"Mocking them"... okay... Are they really "moving the world"? Probably, by doing some ordinary jobs... or something that others don't want to do... But still, they look terrifying... probably because they look like they have a lack of emotions or feelings... and that's probably the worst possible thing that an empath can see... 😃

Thanks for sharing... I will have bad dreams tonight because of this... 😂 (just kidding)
