Branco seems to somehow get more and more shitheaded with every cartoon he puts out.

I mean, it's like he's a black hole of the shittiest takes on any given situation.

I want to say that out of all the regulars, it's probably a Dry Bones. Kirschen saw your challenge and is stepping up to the plate.


quote:

A really close friend from America was visiting us and saw this cartoon. He's politically savvy, sharp, and intelligent, but his reaction to the cartoon shocked me. He was unaware of the antisemitism of the left. He'd never heard of the violent antifa movement, and he was ignorant of the antisemitism of the Black Lives Matter organization. Most of his information comes from Main Stream Media and he's been guided by the politically correct stance of American Jewish groups.

I took the opportunity to sell him a copy of my brand-new Dry Bones anthology "Dry Bones Cartoons Fight Back." That led me to think that maybe I should be selling YOU a copy(either for you or for you to pass on to a similarly uninformed friend).

The book is on sale at Amazon http://amazon.com/author/kirschen where, in addition to the (over sized) anthology there's a Kindle copy (and a bookshelf of other Dry Bones books). And if you buy a copy PLEASE leave a review. It would be really helpful.

All of them. We have had a large crop of cartoons where the cartoonists openly sided with neo-nazis and other fascist groups.

Here is a link to this year's repository for the gaybies. I'm sure you can find something suitably horrible that someone has already submitted.

I personally say Branco's. Not any specific one, just the collection as a while.

All modern scholarship I've read puts Jefferson as someone whose ideals were in the right place right up until he retired to his farm and realized his slaves having children was the only profitable part of his property, at which point he tied himself in knots to justify why slavery was actually good after all

Early Jefferson was a man whose actions didn't quite live up to his ideals. Late Jefferson was a man who was willing to completely forfeit those ideals for money

Evidence on this?

Political Cartoons 2017: A Goon Full of "No"

basics card: In australia, if you go on unemployment benefits (which is ~$212 US per week, paid fortnightly) in certain areas (such as the Northern Territory) then half your payment is "income managed" which sequesters half of it in a separate account and can only be used on "pre-approved" items (groceries, clothing, etc. cigarettes and alcohol are verboten). The "certain areas" portion means that a disproportionate amount of people that have to use the card are indigenous australians.

I got it from American Sphinx: The Character of Thomas Jefferson by Joseph Ellis. He seems to be a well-respected historian. I'd have to go back into the book to figure out which primary source he cites for that claim.

He came out as a Nazi way before then. But honestly, that last one was funny, because he failed to notice that his big strong white nazi guy was speaking Spanish.

The latter is definitely proven given how much of a butt boy he is for Putin. Its that he himself officially collaborated with the RUssians to tamper with the election that we don't have the totality of proof for. Everyone knows it, but Mueller is assembling the proof. And wasn't Trump in the KKK years ago?

14 is the fourteen words, 88 is Heil Hitler, cause H is the eighth letter.

Fourteen words, or: We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.

The 88 is a reference to H being the 8th letter of the alphabet, translating to 'HH' which is their shorthand for 'Heil Hitler'

It's a separation that doesn't have any meaning whatsoever.

Fascism and racism aren't the same thing. You can have racism without fascism (not sure about the converse). Woodrow Wilson was an economic progressive and immensely racist. A lot of pre-Southern Strategy Democrats were, actually.

Garrison's up there in worst ones this year, really. Starting with the McCain tumor one, he was going all-out on blatantly horrible things. Though at the same time in this past week alone Branco put out as many pro-Nazi or otherwise abhorrent cartoons as Garrison did in that entire timespan I think, so he is fair to consider the worst too like some have.
