I would put Trump under the tank but I don't have the time or the skill to rewrite all of those labels into things that make sense, or put a dude with a sword on top of the tank. And you'd have to redo the side of the treads and uggh I don't know how you edit people do it sometimes. Just thinking about what I'd have to do is too much work.

Bobbin Threadbare posted:The KKK and scary black dancers in the same fear-mongering cartoon. Gotta love it. I'm pretty sure the black dancers aren't supposed to be scary. It's a comment about how the US is pretending to have the moral high ground while treating black people poorly and appropriating their culture (like with the Jitterbug or rock music).

It turns out the artist (Harald Damsleth) made a series of propaganda postcards, most of which I haven't seen before: "The Liberation": "New spring fashions 1943": A reference to the Comedian Harmonists: "The burdens of war are a heavy load": A parody of Picasso, seems like: Placard: I cannot describe to you what blessings the invasion will bring in a better fashion" Redheaded troll: "I would have preferred it a bit more rosy".

Considering the Nazis believed the proliferation of the Jitterbug was symptomatic of the decline of European values during the 1920s (and also something something EVIL JEWISH CONSPIRACY something something)... yeah, no.

The comic is probably more along the lines of the Americans aren't bringing liberation, they are bringing death and what a fascist sees as moral decay.

Was watching the news last night about the heavily-armed guy that was arrested in LA for making multiple calls to the Islamic Center of Southern California, threatening to go all Dylan Roof on them. They were scrolling through his now-deleted Twitter account, and one of the posts was a retweet of Pepe le Garrison's "Trump=Samson" cartoon. drat if he just doesn't know how to gravitate to all the world's winners. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/oct/24/eu-trade-deal-with-canada-collapses-as-belgium-refuses-to-sign 17

Since I assume there's at least one person here that likes to gaze into the darkness long enough for it to gaze back, Ben finally got around to writing his thoughts on things, and here they are: Garrison posted:The Clintons are perhaps the most corrupt political family in American history. The Bushes may be second, but even they maintained a certain decorum in the White House. Neither Bush president would think of cussing out a secret service man or angrily hurl a White House antique at a spouse. The Clintons are at heart common grifters. They’re lying, vulgar confidence tricksters who continue to enjoy pushing the criminal envelope because they’re used to getting away with their crimes. Both should be in prison. Right now.

I recall reading earlier this year that the Obamacare premium increases were intentionally planned for around this time as to hurt democrats in the election as much as possible.

For some reason I assumed that "third runway at Heathrow" was some sort of metaphor, not literally a runway at an airport. It seems very strange for the expansion of an airport to be a matter of national politics, but I guess it just goes to show the size difference between the US and UK.
