Someone probably wanted to post it somewhere where you can’t see the image in its full height (e.g. Instagram), but cropping it like that required the bubble to be redone.
Not excusable, of course, and disrespectful to the artist - I’m just trying to think of the reasoning.
why would they trim it like that and then re-add the text???
To claim it as their own
They didn’t even care to remove the old speech bubble 💀
but there’s no watermark and the text is obviously added afterwards
