White people are only being racist because black people are being racist first. Also, racism is actually good. But black people shouldn't be racist, because it makes white people racist. But black people are bad and racism is good, for white people. Also racism didn't exist until BLM. But if it did, which it didn't, it would be okay. White people are an oppressed minority who must rise up and fight for equality, but also black people are not and should not. When will the white straight Republican male get a fair shake in this country??

Bill Leak: I think this is about the Indonesian military moving to suspend all cooperation with Australia after a commander was offended by some material he saw in a Perth military base that allegedly promoted West Papua independence. With Leak I'm never quite sure because he's so vague about about his topic when he's not under attack by Section 18C.

Xander77 posted:Well, if your lifelong ambition was to actually blow someone's mind by posting a link, consider it achieved. quote:Andi Ermes, 39, offered a number of reasons for disliking Obama. She said Obama didn’t attend the Army-Navy football game, even though other presidents had. Obama has actually attended more Army-Navy games than George H.W. Bush. She said that he had taken too many vacations. He has taken fewer vacation days than George W. Bush. She also said that he refused to wear a flag pin on his lapel. While it is true that Obama did not wear a flag on his lapel at points during the 2007 campaign, it was back on his suit by 2008. Ermes told me the news sources she consumes most are Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, and a local conservative radio show hosted by Casey Hendrickson.

I am not so familiar with that, never been a sports section guy despite baseball being the raddest sport- gross. Mostly I know Judge from seeing him in the paper when I still lived in KC, or from the framed Royals World Series cartoon my folks have up in their house I don't know what the line of notoriety is (syndication? a Patreon? a URL?), but I'll justpost: a buddy of mine has been drawing panels after work and on days off to hone skills/for fun and just distributes them via personal Facebook page. I like his style, it's suitably minimalist and it's been a little over a year so he's still playing with it. He's kind of a liberal JRRose who loves Star Wars, and isn't really a political firebrand so much as a pun maker and A Thing Happened cartoonist, but every now and then he'll post something that merits sharing here. anyway here's a sampling of Keezer, I'll post one of his panels now and then unless a hundred goons piss in my inbox: a new year happened: 1 2 guess the cartoonist's politics and levels of nerd attained: 3 4 5 a celebrity death happened: 6 timg'd puns galore that I probably wouldnt post here so much: 7 8 9 10 typical apolitical content that also ditto: 11 12

You see, when white people do and say crazy, irrational, hateful things, it's just a simple, predictable, easy-to-understand, albeit misguided response to injustices they've personally or indirectly suffered. Whitelash! When black people do crazy, irrational, hateful things, it's because... uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... they're n*ggers?
