Meanwhile, Conradin made himself another piece of toazzzzzzt.
With the UK elections coming up, an online magazine which I follow reproduced some old anti-suffragette cartoons.

It's interesting how closely they mimic some of the usual suspects here, especially with the recent anti-Hillary ones.











Women amirite?






So, dumb and goddamn crazy - also ugly.
(You gotta give me the fangs.)




It's funny because it's torture!


ICWT is apparently a reference to the International Council of Women

This one's obviously pro-sufferage. Also, I want to know the name of that e-zine.

It's an odd blend of comfort and worry that this stuff inspires in me.

On the one hand, it's comforting that the only arguments they could muster were 'women are too stupid' or 'only uglies care,' (with a dash of 'hey let's cause them harm') because those are provably stupid arguments.

On the other, we are STILL SEEING THOSE SAME EXACT loving ARGUMENTS.

Oh, yeah. I kept that one in even though it was pro-sufferage. Forgot to note it.

The magazine is the Vagenda - http://vagendamagazine.com This was one of their more Buzzfeedy '7 images to show why women should vote in May' articles - some of the other 'Wimmin want to wear pants!' images were ones I found when searching to see what ICWT meant.

I know what you mean. It's depressing to see the same 'Women are only feministssuffragettes because they're too old, ugly, bitter to get a man.'

Also lots of repeats of 'What if this minority group treated US like we treat them' panic - which we mostly see in this thread about race. My parents have a big print of a French Suffragette poster which is basically wringing hands about men being compelled to wash up, cook and change babies while women hunt, gamble and drink.

Also pants. Anti-suffragette cartoons seem obsessed by women wearing trousers.

And those sufferagette cartoons are terribly brutal. Even my college courses showed perhaps a few more watered-down images, so many of those are just ghastly.

No, he just complemented her shoes and then she overreacted like the typical liberal woman she is! Why can't a man just compliment a woman anymore, eh? Now let's talk about how evil teachers are and why the judge who gave me a DUI is a big fat idiot the liberal activist courts are destroying America.

Its absolutely astounding to me how much better drunk duck used to be. I mean plotlines, backgrounds, different angles, people doing things. Amazing. Usually you watch an artist grow, not de-evolve like his art was shot with koopa's gun from the Mario movie.

Someone bought me this custom title because they think I kick ass at Photoshop. They happen to be right.
If only DC didn't have such strict gun control, the Senator could have drawn a gun and defended himself against the guy who was already pointing a gun at him.

It is amazing, though, how much more effort Tinsley was clearly putting into the strip back then compared to now.

I think Chipotlegate is the perfect example you can give to any person who doubts that conservatives hate the Clintons way more than they ever hated Obama. We all remember Mustardgate but that was limited to one segment on Hannity whereas this is a full-blown scandal in their eyes and everyone's gotta chime in on it.

The most striking thing about these is that the duck actually has expressions, granted most of the are frustrated brow furrowing. It's a strange change to the glassy eyed cocked brow that is modern mallard.

It shouldn't really come as a shock but it feels weird knowing Mallard Fillmore is older than I am.

The shock to me is that it isn't older than I am. I don't remember there being a day mallard fillmore wasn't there. I saw it next to calvin and hobbes. I assumed it was at least from the 70s. It's hosed up to think of it in terms of The Simpsons being on season loving five, homer was teaching a marriage class at the learning annex and two weeks later bruce tinsley gets syndicated for the first time.

It's so terrible I thought it was carrying on by inertia from decades past and baby boomers refusing to let anything change while they're in charge. Like the wizard of id or blondie.
