I tried, but I could not resist the urge to point out that that's not what POV means, unless you mean the user who made the mistake is one of the gunmen.

Is it not the point of view of the users? I mean as in John Wick in the centre making the mistake.

No, because "point of view" means seeing through their eyes, not looking at their face.

The end of each barrel is what they see, their own mouth is something they don't see — that's not the case here

So the POV character is supposed to be one of the people holding the guns? Or?

The image we're seeing is not from John Wick's point of view though. If it was, he would not appear in the picture.

I mean in the vacuum of the meme. You can also read the alt text for more context.

No we get your intention don't worry, it's just that we are pedantic and wanted to exactly dowhat the meme portrays, come guns blazing from a small mistake.

An actual POV would be an image of several people holding guns pointed at the "camera" aka the viewer aka John wick. That would be the point of view of John wick.

Aren't you amused by us leading by example to show that you are right?

That’s true! The meme has been reenacted.
