Robin Williams: It doesn’t scare me that Dubya waved at Stevie Wonder; that’s okay. Stevie’s only been blind since birth! He’s like, ‘Stevie!’ and Stevie’s going, ‘Is that muthaf***a waving at me? Goddamn! Does he think I’m lookin for him? Goddamn!’

IIRC, Stevie Wonder wasn’t 100% blind. He was capable of the vague discernment of light and dark and extremely vague shapes. But he was, functionally, blind, for all practical purposes.

2 big things.
-
Stevie Wonder is still alive.
-
He went blind from being born prematurely and his retinas never developed properly. He might be able to detect light or shadow. But he’s really blind. And has a history of having fun messing with people about it too.

If my eyesight was that bad, i probably wouldn’t take pictures to begin with. Tgis totally brought back some memories that i fell into a rabbit hole of stevie wonder conspiracy theories. I remember that they had some good points, but with every point there was a lot of: what a weird thing to lie about for all that time

What is up with MJ’s freakishly large hand??

Wide angle lens distortion. The camera is probably a lot closer to the whole scene than it appears, and because of that, it’s closest to whether of in the middle foreground of the frame.

The crazy shit this meme is complaining about was probably like the 2003 invasion of Iraq or something
