Prokhor Zakharov posted:A superintendent for the Georgia education system just got fired when it was discovered he was posting all kinds of racist/insane right wingery on his public facebook page This doesn't surprise me in the least. Branco is pretty prolific because he is a stupid racist idiot at the core, and never lets things like facts, self-awareness or comedic timing get in his way. He resonates a lot with a certain demographic. Zulily Zoetrope fucked around with this message at 18:27 on Jan 27, 2016 |

What's funny is that there are already American communities under oppressive theocratic ultraorthodox religious rule and you never hear a peep about it from the right.

Why is Al-Assad holding up the us constitution? Kirschen:  quote:Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump abruptly announced here Tuesday that he would not participate in Thursday’s scheduled debate, escalating his off-and-on feud with Fox News Channel and throwing the GOP campaign into turmoil.

Dr Cheeto posted:Abe Vigoda died, that's probably it. A combination of that, as well as the fact that people are upset that a number of films with non-white leads weren't nominated for the second year in a row, if I am remembering correctly. Huh. Marlon Brando was pretty cool.

How common are cases of people being pressured into signing religious arbitration agreements in the US? Like, literal Sharia Law, but with Christians? I know there was a case about a kid getting the choice of a Christian drug program or jail, and having no legal rights when it turned that the program wanted to cure his being gay, but that seemed like an outlier.

Is there a point to the GOP debates anymore? I've lost track of how many there's been and all that's newsworthy about them is that the networks get to pick who they throw into the kid's table.

Honestly there isn't really a point to the Democratic ones either, all the candidates have been basically saying the same things over and over since the first one not featuring Webb or Chafee (the town-hall one this week was good though)

Marlon Brando is my favourite actor (could you tell???) and an incredibly interesting figure when it comes to this kind of stuff. There's numerous quotes from him like this. That's despite the fact he had a role in yellowface (in The Teahouse of the August Moon) and starred in Reflections in a Golden Eye, a film with a very stereotypical Filipino houseboy, although that character was probably the most likable in the movie. He said similar things about gender, prizing sensitivity while acknowledging his own masculine urges and (of course) embodying so many icons of "traditional" masculinity. It's just a reminder of how complex people can be on political issues, and how even the most progressive person still has to live in an imperfect society and absorbs its values to some degree. That's why that "your fave is problematic" poo poo is so grating.

They do allow candidates to whip up excitement from thier supporters and take potshots at each other. Especially the GOP which thrives on displays of childish bravado, unbridled bigotry, and general bluster that they so thrive on these days. Being able to deflect actual questions by accusing the moderators of bias is a double bonus as it lets them score points by playing into the all-consuming persecution complex their voters tend to have while squashing any actual logic.

He just might have drawn from this professional experience when he listed "the leering Filipino houseboy" among the various harmful stereotypes.

Krinkle posted:What the hell is the hurtful stereotype of the philipino houseboy? I'm not sure of a good example, but apparently the sterotype is that Filipinos are displayed as devoted but impotent sidekicks that are eager to please (usually someone who's white). It was much more prevalent during Brando's career.

Krinkle posted:What the hell is the hurtful stereotype of the philipino houseboy? Back in the pre-70s era, it was common for Asian men, especially on the west coast, to work as house servants. Chinese, Japanese, or Filipino "houseboys" were common figures in the media, and were invariably depicted as weak, effeminate, and of course completely devoted to their wise white masters.

Unfortunate trunk placement for the elephant on the left. I seriously love that Branco keeps putting Wile E. Coyote signs in the hands of his villains. I always read them as "ain't I a stinker?", which works especially well with the facial expression he always gives the sign holder.

Rorus Raz posted:The funny thing is that Rall's doing exactly what conservatives did after Obama won and posting a map of the country's vote that's mostly red because it ignores population density. And he's starting to draw for Putin's new propaganda outlet. Is Rall just plain conservative now? When was the last time he made a cartoon not about how the Democratic party blah blah drones purple man bad?

I think since it's talking about minority treatment in Hollywood as well as the treatment of Indians, it relates well to the best whitey awards - sorry, this year's Oscars. Creed was loving robbed. ToxicSlurpee posted:That's a common right wing talking point, though. You'll see maps circulating around social media that are all "look at how Republican the nation is!" ignoring the fact that most Americans live in cities at this point. The counties that vote heavily Democrat are generally very densely populated while areas that vote Republican are often counties large by area that have low density; some have massive areas of no density with only a few people. Its also become common to say about Hillary Clinton on the right, to contrast with Ted Cruz, who fought an uphill battle to ride the tea party wave in loving Texas. So my guess is that Rall is browsing LL101 now to find his content. colonel_korn posted:One more late-breaking cartoon: I'm amazed he didn't say Cruz loves baseball and apple pie.

It's also led to this strange situation where the staunchest supporters of "local control" have started passing laws to preemptively prevent cities and counties from passing their own laws and ordinances.
