Starving Wolf posted:Ah yes, because armed resistance against the mongol horde worked so well for everyone in Europe. This is just a poorly thought out metaphor, too. If you're a racist shithead trying to make a point about immigration (?), wouldn't the later Muslim attempts to breach into Europe be a more apt background? I mean, it sorta did? They didn't really make it that far into Europe because of the death of the Khan making them all turn around and do some politicking, but if I remember my history right an alliance of various German princes did hold off the Mongols long enough for them to receive the news and go home. (It's likely that Germany was relatively unconquerable for the Mongols because the high humidity did a number on their composite bows but that's a separate concern). The real reason that the cartoon is moronic is because refugees aren't, yknow, an army.

Yeah, it's not as though political cartoons haven't reached the point where it's difficult to tell die hard psycho beliefs from full on parody. It's just we're all incredulous that anyone has been on the internet for decades without running across theonion.com Like if it weren't for this thread and I randomly came across Garrison I'd swear on my life it was parody.

Xander77 posted:So everything up (and kinda including) Hungary isn't Europe anymore? The claim I was responding to was that resistance was futile and accomplished nothing. It demonstrably accomplished something (at least) once. That period of history isn't my strong suit though so I am fully prepared to be owned on how my memory of the German battle is completely wrong! The Red Panels comic that spawned the discussion is stupid regardless of whether fighting back against the Mongols ever worked or not.
