Burma-Shave ads wasn't even ever a thing in my country, it's one of those things I know entirely from memes.

Neito posted:I just now realized that that's just the way Clay Jones draws talking mouths; I thought everyone in his comics was screaming at the top of their lungs. I can’t see them as anything but “tongue flailing in a screaming maw”. And sometimes he slips up and draws some normal mouths, like the non-Trump characters here (who gets a big peach on his face for some reason??): Raised By Birds posted:Clay Jones

It's the acceptable wartime racism The foreign hordes are all fanged blood-drinking monsters, and don't be so foolish as to ignore the children, the corruption is in their very DNA if you let them grow up they'll be monsters too.

Vib Rib posted:They always assume their opponents are just as racist as they are, but in reverse (so against white people and for black people). Ditto every other bigotry. So when they get any minority voice whatsoever on their side they really expect the other side to trip over themselves about it. Yup. They seem to think it's a Rube Goldbergesque own where liberals have to actually support Thomas because they instantly support everything black people ever do without question. Raised By Birds posted:Chip Bok Correct: use of the term 'dwarf' is not considered correct anymore.

"The term dwarf is offensive" in regards to Snow White is old enough that I remember it being in Politically Correct Bedtime Stories, a book that came out almost 30 loving years ago. I guess by political cartoon standards that's incredibly recent though.

An acquaintance of mine with dwarfism has informed me that “dwarf,” “person with dwarfism,” and “little person” are all acceptable but “midget“ is offensive.

Like if Ramirez drew a cartoon of Chinese kids with fangs talking about how they want to undermine America everyone in this thread would rightfully be calling him a racist piece of poo poo for it, so why is it suddenly okay and cool and not racist to draw Russian kids doing it?

Or heck, for an actual real life example, just look at all the anti-Japanese propaganda from WW2. It was insanely racist. Does calling it racist mean you're defending the Japanese Empire's many horrific crimes against humanity? Hell no. You don't get a pass to dehumanize people just because they live in a country that is committing war crimes.
