the_steve posted:I think, and someone correct me if I'm wrong, but: That is a really sad reason to choose any faith and a really lovely way of explaining it "Keep doing good works" vs "I have saved you, just do what you like" is both bunkum and not in line with various important Christian social virtues. It just seems so strange that someone would go "I am too lazy to make the world better so I follow Jesus" is that supposed to inspire your own side or make other test their convictions? I am so loving confused.

That's true but "pomme de terre" is the term for potatoes in general.

French fries aren't "patates frites". They're "pommes frites". Which would be "fried apples" if you translated it directly. But it still makes more sense than whatever Muir is passing off as English.

Do people actually attend the "Dry Bones Academy" or is it just a tax-free money scheme that Kirschen funnels money through similar to many professional athletes' fake charities? I mean, who would look at his art and say "yup, I wanna draw like that" because they'd be more deranged than he is.

I've spoken both English and French my whole life and direct literal translations can lead to some fun. (God yes, the counting. 70-99: hilarity in English)

Goddamn, David Pope owns. Powns. Christensen, Frydenberg and Hanson are no doubt unknowns unless you're Australian, and even then the first two aren't recognisable unless you follow politics, but his caricatures are always so clear, no need to put everyone's names on them.

Poe's Law dot jay peg. I mean, I laughed at first, because I thought it was making fun of monomaniacal "Obama, He Bad" pundits who just have to disagree and score points on whatever completely inoffensive thing he's said. It could have been ”Obama condemns terrorism but REFUSES to use the MAGIC WORDS which means he is a COMMUNIST SYMPATHIZER COWARD who SMOKES." Then I thought "Hope n Change...why does that sound familiar?  "

Kajeesus posted:"Obama says people having guns is bad? Well, what about all these gun deaths Obama didn't mention?" I guess this argument is supposed to be a foolproof rhetorical counter to gun control because Chicago has gun control laws, but five seconds of research into why they aren't working there will reveal the shocking plot-twist that people are just driving to the next town over, which doesn't have gun control laws, to buy their guns, which I can't parse as anything but a p solid argument that gun control is needed on the federal level In short if anyone brings up Chicago crime statistics in an anti-gun-control context it's just proof that they receive their talking points directly from the right-wing media bubble without thinking critically about them for even a second, and never talk politics with anyone who doesn't do the same

Seems pretty easy to AGC: The ongoing violence in Chicago due to racist policing, an unjust drug war and rampant poverty should eclipse in our minds individual nuts addled by right-wing hate speech. I'm guessing he doesn't want to reform policing, end the drug war, or redistribute wealth, though.

Isn't Chicago also not as bad as other American cities on a per-capita basis when it comes to gun deaths?

Wait, wait, are you saying that conservative editorial cartoonists are misunderstanding statistics, in a way that presents black people in a bad light, in order to try and blame a liberal policy for failing? Surely that's not what you're saying, that could never happen!
