idonotlikepeas posted:Ed Gamble has been at this for a while; I believe he turned 80 this year. Here's a bit of a retrospective of the evolution and devolution of his art (courtesy of the King Features site, the University of Tennessee, and the University of North Florida): A watch dog's entire purpose is to alert people of danger, so even without teeth they're capable of barking and doing their job. Gamble is thinking of a guard dog, which would attack intruders as well. Take that, lazy comic from almost forty years ago!

So, this cartoon has now caused a bit of a brou-ha-ha here is sunny happy Canada. See, one of our biggest right wing rags, the Toronto Sun, ran this cartoon on the front page. This is after weeks of beating the drum about how terrible anti-Semitism is, and how plucky little Israel is just defending itself. Also, what you need to known is the largest, by capita, diaspora of Ukrainian people is in Canada. So, as you can imagine, as seen by the tweet below, it's caused a shitstorm, with even some of our most conservative pundits calling them out on it. https://twitter.com/KateMcKenna28/status/1737739347934282016

What Nazi poo poo is that cartoon referencing? I know of the Dolchstoßlegende cartoon that gets referenced an alarming amount by modern cartoonists, but is there more to that particular Varvel Zelensky cartoon than antisemitic stereotypes?

Pope: The government has been debating the idea of a disaster response team that isn't using the armed forces and volunteers (which is what is dealing with disasters like the current floods now). Wilcox: Albo = PM, Sussan Ley = Deputy Opposition Leader, Chris Bowen = Energy & Climate Change Minister, Peter Dutton = Opposition Leader, Richard Marles = Defence Minister, Tanya Plibersek = Environment Minister. Knight: Arnold Dix, the 'nerdy' Aussie farmer behind the Indian tunnel rescue that saved 41 people (ABC). And the Melbourne Metro Tunnel, which is slated to open next year despite cost blowouts. It's a "two tunnels happened" cartoon. Leak, Son of Leak: The US has requested Australia send a warship to the Red Sea but we aren't. Australia to send small personnel deployment but no warship to Red Sea (ABC).

JamesBont posted:What was that one quote that said fascists portray their enemies as both too strong and too weak at the same time? It's one of the signifiers in Umberto Eco's Ur-fascism quote:The followers must feel humiliated by the ostentatious wealth and force of their enemies. When I was a boy I was taught to think of Englishmen as the five-meal people. They ate more frequently than the poor but sober Italians. Jews are rich and help each other through a secret web of mutual assistance. However, the followers must be convinced that they can overwhelm the enemies. Thus, by a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak. Fascist governments are condemned to lose wars because they are constitutionally incapable of objectively evaluating the force of the enemy. Note that while this is appealing, Eco himself describes the signifiers as "also typical of other kinds of despotism or fanaticism." They're also generally debated regarding their utility as such; some seem far more common and potentially necessary to fascist states than others, and this one in particular isn't necessarily a function of fascism as much as of general bad faith motivation toward an out-group.

Rall: Gaza Land AcknowledgementTed Rall posted:Following the doctrine that it is easier to beg forgiveness than to obtain permission, Israel is engaged in the ethnic cleansing of the Gaza Strip, with a view toward annexing it. It’s not hard to imagine that, sooner rather than later, beach resorts will replace the 2.3 million Palestinians who have been killed or driven out of their homeland.
