How did the "depict Jews and other people I don't like as octopuses" thing start? Was there a particular cartoon that kicked it off, some political event, or have our cephalopod cousins been unfairly maligned all these years?

As a Jew, I would like to apologize to the octopi for the shame of being associated with us, and not the other way around.

Nyarai posted:The backpacks derail was when some goon defended super-heavy backpacks, because how else would we prevent our youth from being such fatty fat fats? That was Raneman, last year, and my favorite part of all that was his obvious journey from "wait why is everyone disagreeing with me  " to "well obviously I was joking the whole time".

The octopus has a history of use as a visual metaphor, antisemitic or not, of a broad-reaching entity with "its tentacles spreading into everything". This is usually expressed to legitimate criticisms of corporations or empires or ideologies(see the Standard Oil cartoon above) or as part of conspiracy theories, in which The International Jew has usually been the primary animal antagonist.

This is legitimately one of the most spiteful comics (for a certain value of "comic") I've ever seen in one of these threads, and that says a lot.

See, Lester plays it safe. He tries to make viewers guess whether or not he's being a legit hateful bastard, or just kind of one. This guy? He just plops it all on the table. Full-on hateful prick. Go die on a rusty spike.

As some of you may know, Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, leader of the Sinaloa Cartel and Chicago's public enemy number one, was captured in a joint operation between the DEA and Mexican authorities.

No. Also from what I remember Hillary was much more politically active than Michelle has ever been. Remember the whole "co-president" thing? There's really no reason for the Michelle hate besides

At least, I could tell who it was without reading the speech bubble, which puts him ahead of practically everyone else in the thread.
