Yeah, it's crocodile tear "but it's not real employment" swipes at job growth, lest you think anything good happened while Obama was in the White House.

I've been looking at that DbD for a solid 5 minutes trying to visually parse that second panel. Is Black Mouthpiece trying to gently caress the bedsheets? Is he trying to lift Token Liberal's legs? I know it's a thread meme to make fun of Muir's art but that's a level of "What the gently caress am I looking at" that I haven't had in a long time.

Sure, if time is non-linear. And if you're doing non-Hispanic white people vs. Spaniards/Mexicans (one and the same, then, really), the Presidio/Mission system is only a handful of decades older than Fort Ross. Spoeank fucked around with this message at 22:24 on Jan 11, 2015 |

![]() Canada's first prime minister, Sir John A. MacDonald, turned 200. By any standard nowadays he would be considered a racist, colonialist, alcoholic shithead, so naturally there's a large movement to overlook all that by judging him according to the standards of his own time/whitewashing Canada's horrible early history because he's Canada's version of George Washington and (perhaps more importantly) was a Big C Conservative so our current Conservatives claim him as one of their own.

This is kind of right. Putin isn't chained to the bear or anything. The Russian economy is going down the drain, but he personally will be alright. He saved up some change.

Considering he shocked the french media about five minutes into confederation with statements like "We should hang a french canadian on each tree on Mount Royal" and the handling of the Red River rebellion, it's fair to say he was already thought of as a shithead by what was, at the time, half the country.

I really don't care if he was a drunk, It's a way bigger deal that he was a racist rear end in a top hat , which any attack on him should focus on.

Art Spiegelman did an interview regarding the shootingSpiegelman posted:But the result has been, over a period of time, that the political cartoon has become a variant of the gag cartoon, The New Yorker one-liner cartoon underneath, in which certain targets are present as tropes, but just to make a kind of amusing gag, certainly not to take a position that could offend, outrage or provoke thought. It’s the opposite. It’s like, "Har, har, isn’t Obama a Spock-like egghead?" or "Isn’t it amusing that Congress cant’ get anything done?" And it stays at the level of amusement without enough charge to unpack it. Like at this point I think that Jon Stewart and, until recently, Colbert have taken up the slack of what political cartooning used to be and should do. quote:NERMEEN SHAIKH: So, at its best, what do you think political cartooning should be and do? And how did you get into cartooning yourself? Spiegelman posted:Absolutely, yeah, like—well, one of the ways that censorship works in America is, A, there’s the economic censorship that I was describing before of newspapers aren’t going to want controversy, thank you, even though Thomas Nast did a good job of stirring things up, and we pay lip service to him with his Tweed Ring cartoon in history books. But one doesn’t point to his anti-Catholic cartoons that were also part of his mix at the time and were quite virulent. But the economic imperative is one thing, and the imperative of "We must be mature adults, and therefore we have the right to do it, but we mustn’t do it" is a dangerous one. It’s important. I believe that the best response to stupid speech is more speech until you find your way through this, hopefully without machine guns entering the picture, but until you actually sift it enough to understand what the picture is unearthed, because we’re dealing with things that are deep in our brain. There's a video of the interview, along with the first part. Covers a few topics.

Exclamation Marx posted:Haaretz cartoonist Noa Olchowski has received death threats in Israel over this cartoon It's pretty loving magical that there are Israelis who openly condone terror attacks against non-Palestinian cartoonists by muslim extremists, simply because a Palestinian said it was bad. Someone put those statements out there with their real names attached.

The fact that Israel has a statute that allows them to investigate and charge people with "defeatist propaganda" is both terrible and yet unsurprising
