He won 9 Walkleys or some poo poo which is an award administrated by the AJA and now MEAA. His portraits were fantastic for a long time and he was a well respected political cartoonist. He went loving hard slide right after being kicked in the head, but there are plenty of examples of fairly nasty cartoons prior to 2008. His work from 1970 to 1990 wasn't offensive because it was always attacking white people of whatever political designation rather than full on edgy racism. I'm going to check out some archival poo poo and fact check myself though because the 70-80s were a different time and he probably wasn't held to account. e: I bought a mech keyboard and I can't type on it good yet JBP fucked around with this message at 09:27 on Mar 10, 2017 |

I'm going to invoke Godwin here and say just because Hitler died doesn't mean we should forget or forgive the horrible poo poo he did. Oh he died? That's vaguely sad I suppose. What's also sad is that his friends & family clearly didn't speak out against all the hateful poo poo he published so I dunno, guess they supported him and can just gently caress right off.

There is always a point to attacking racist assholes, posthumously or not.

So this is from a friend of mine who's a Labor councillor:quote:Napoleon famously said: “Never interfere with your enemy when he (or she in this case) is making a mistake.” PHON is tearing itself apart in WA ATM. Protesters are just giving her oxygen as victim. #strategicallydumb Yeah rack off grand dad protest tells people they're bad and tells other people not to follow the bad people. If we did things your way Hanson would be PM by now. (Every time there's a protest he tuts on fb - I'm not sure what he sees in the Union movement. Maybe he just likes the barbecues?)

Quick Nestart question for people in the know, is jury duty a valid reason for not going to see Max (un)employment? Because I told them as soon as I was able that I couldn't make an appointment because of it but now my payments have been cut off. I can't imagine jury duty is an invalid excuse.

At least people seem to have have worked out that PHON are all idiots before they voted this time. Maybe the cribbing the Putin love and antivaxxer poo poo from the Trump playbook didn't play out as well as Pauline thought it might. I'm not sure how the upper house numbers usually play out in WA with the regional divisions, guessing they may get one or two up there, but the RWNJ vote seems to be all over the shop. EDIT: @GhostWhoVotes posted:#Newspoll WA State Primary Votes: LIB 32 (+2) NAT 5 (0) ALP 41 (+3) ON 8 (-5) GRN 7 (-2) #wavotes #auspol This rules.
