Do you also campaign for the right to ensure Nazis can say what they want, "because while you may not agree with what they say, you'll defend to the death their right to say it"?

Agreed, let the nazis express themselves so that we can find and purge them from society.

Hate speech is violence and should be treated as such. Every resident should have the right to vote. These are not contradictory ideas.

Also clearly, gently caress Nazis. Punch Nazis. Voter disenfranchisement is always bent to be used against disempowered and marginalized minority groups, though, and should not exist. That's all I plan to say about it in the Funny Pictures thread.

My cousin was stationed in Germany and he relayed stories of how shitloads of Germans are absolutely obsessed with the American Old West but had like zero clue of what the old west was actually like. He described some bar that was just hundreds of Germans just randomly dressed in vaguely cowboyish poo poo and a bunch of them in redface dressed as natives. None of them knew when or even where the old west took place and were confused when the American servicemen thought the whole scene was absolutely insane.

Tashilicious posted:There's been a lot of divorcing of context and history about cowboys and america, globally. Basically about "every country in the world, in other countries". For example the left-wing sweetheart author of USA, John Steinbeck was an adamant supporter of the Terijoki government of the Finnish Democratic Republic. Terijoki government was basically was a puppet government conjured up by Stalin to give legitimacy for their invasion, and planned soviet-style occupation and enslavement of the Finnish people. And we still consider Steinbeck's books to be quite poignant in some themes, but the guy was a certifiable rear end in a top hat for what he did against the legitimate Finnish government, which at that time was supported by all but the most Stalin-now left wing radicals.

luxury handset posted:iirc the statistical average cowboy was short, black, and gay (or at least, heteroflexible) I think I read somewhere that most of them were Mexican, but the point still stands that white cowboys were the minority. I think Hollywood is what started skewing the image of cowboys with the general population.

All these European western/country music fans are not the smartest people. It's probably more about some nostalgia regarding movies and playing cowboys and natives as kids.

PittTheElder posted:Like wasn't it a good decade or two where Western was really the only type of movie anyone made? yeah but also really the entire first half of the 20th century in terms of american film. westerns were incredibly popular because it was a form of american myth-making and you can tell most kind of stories in the genre. it was the most popular genre in the silent film era because lots of action and easy to film, then they became passe for a while in the 20s and 30s, then starting after ww2 until the mid 60's, peaking in the 1950s (the decade you're thinking of) before they became cliche again not just movies either, most television shows of this era were westerns as well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdAvEOt-l_I
