(Making that cartoon even more stupid) edit: another article actually said "McDonalds," so cartoon makes sense but is stupid. Oh, and a kid just stabbed 50 disabled people in an assisted living home in Tokyo. Look forward to those cartoons next. nobodyssweetheart fucked around with this message at 02:26 on Jul 26, 2016 |

It did start at a McD's. While I can see how it's not the coverage they'd want it's definitely not libellous. "The shooting started at McDonalds" has been the first sentence of the second paragraph for a lot of coverage and as that's specifically a happy meal pictured it's not looking down on the brand. Assuming the artist is sane and wants to lament dead children, he's using the garbage lunchbox as a symbol of childhood innocence. Still an awful cartoon. The kid in Tokyo was 26 by the way, for people who get all their news from the Brit politoons thread.

I hate to give Brookes any credit but "May Guevara" ain't a bad thread subtitle. (Mainly because it's batshit insane.)

Well it's not a ventriloquist dummy it's just trying to convey "cartoon". I guess the thought is "Trump painted her as a one-note crook, which is correct."

Maybe we should just change this to the Rowson Thread (Occasionally Guest Starring Steve Bell). I swear the rest of them are actively getting worse. It's depressing.

at least having the others there means we can't get the sense of false superiority we used to get from reading the main cartoon thread and then just coming here to see nothing but bell and rowson knocking it out the park on the regular though if we want to deflate our british superiority nowaways we can just think of the number "52%" I guess

Guavanaut posted:Eugenics isn't an explicitly bad thing in an of itself. Involuntary euthanasia of the genetically infirm is an extreme, but I don't see the problem with having a strong social taboo against having children with your first cousins for multiple generations until the chin gene completely disappears. ...or comes to form one's entire face, as happened to the Habsburgs.
