Guavanaut posted:I recall it happened to Scott Adams once back in the 90s, the color version had it look at though the one Black guy was the idiot and the butt of the joke. The comic had a security guard that was stealing poo poo at night. The colorist decided to make the one off thief character black. It was still Scott Adam's fault for being lazy and hiring a colorist instead of doing his own work unlike most cartoonist, and not even checking what the guy was doing before signing off. Given what we now know about the guy, I would not at all put it past him to hire a racist friend.

Branco is just mad because Minnesota is changing its flag, and like all conservatives he hates any and all change. They held a contest to replace the old and hideous flag (just the state seal on a blue field) and voted on the new design. Look at this, it's a beautiful flag.  Being conservative means hating any change for the better, no matter how big or small

Guavanaut posted:If Stiglich can't extrapolate from "Iowa is overrepresented by white Christians" to "compared to the rest of the country, which means it may be bad if you're using Iowa to figure out what the rest of the country wants or needs, or good if you're marketing to white Christians and planning to market there" (which is true for any case, a primary, a poll, a candidate for a position, a singer) then he's stupider than I thought. In Stiglich's case that doesn't matter because he thinks white Christians are the only people who matter. It's their job to decide and everyone else's job to obey. To whatever degree they are overrepresented and their tastes disproportionately sampled is the system working as it should. I dont know fucked around with this message at 16:45 on Jan 18, 2024 |

Phlegmish posted:80-90% of political cartoons are just lazy, even when they're done by people with actual artistic skill, like Bennett. Collins is the same. A good 1/3 to 1/2 of his output is just commentary on some slice of life or cultural thing rather than anything political. After he quit, I remember Tim Kreider talking about how bad trying to make meaningful cartoons was for his mental health as it meant deliberately and frequently tapping into anger or despair. If you are doing that regularly to meet a recurring deadline, it's going to impact you.

I had to go back and check, Day by Day has been banned since the beginning of 2016. Nearly a decade by this point. Muir is still the worst, and possibly drawing child porn, but it's weird to include him sense he isn't posted here, and posting him may be a banable offence. Doomykins posted:The white guy drawing a black guy disapproving of black people shenanigans really is their favorite trick, huh. The ol' reliable of racism.

Indiana_Krom posted:A conservative in another internet forum I used to frequent seriously suggested putting machine gun nests/emplacements all along the border (and this was back in the Obama years). So basically any realistic solution proposed to address the border crisis will fail with republicans/conservatives because it would not be nearly racist enough to get their support. My favorite from that time period was the guy who argued the border could be easy and cheaply secured by gathering up all the discarded tires in the country and piling them up along the border, several miles deep, 2000 miles long, dozens of feet high. Then just light the whole thing and create the worlds largest tire fire.

The link between dragons, dwarves, and gold lust goes back to Fafnir in Norse mythology. Of course, dwarves in mythology were earth spirits, not a people. Tolkien decided to make dwarves an deliverate analog to Jewish people at some point during the writing (exiles from their homeland, a population dominated by craftsmen). It's possible he combined these two separate inspirations without considering what they looked like together, but I can't believe it wouldn't occur to him given how prominent antijewish propaganda was at the time.

The goal is to smear Japan, alarmism about scary sounding headlines is just the means.
