Also, there's been some pretty good racism in these threads. Good job, america! But you want the good stuff? You go to Europe, or more specifically that bastion of free speech called Denmark. So here's Niels Thomsen, professional cartoonist in demand by racist assholes all across Sweden, Denmark and Norway. These were published in Dispatch International. A "newspaper" that now is only an extremely racist website, but was actually once a printed newspaper that people got in their mail. They had to scrap the printed edition, since happily very few people were willing to pay for a modern variant of Der Stürmer. I posted some of his work some time back, so a few might be repeats. But what better way to start celebrating a new year? Once again, this was considered publishable in Scandinavia. On behalf of sane Swedes, I apologize.

Eh, what the heck, have a short selection of swedish political cartoons from Magnus Bard, sorta-resident cartoonist of the most influential Swedish daily newspaper, DN. These go back to the general election last september: -"What part of getting fired didn't they understand?" Context: The Alliance For Sweden, the ruling coalition of right-wing parties makes a catastrophic election and hands over power to a minority Red-Green coalition. They don't act like they lost though. -"You want to rule as a majority, in second hand as a minority, in third hand... -"...put sticks in the wheel." Context: The former ruling coalition makes every effort to obstruct the workings of the new Social Democrat-led government, despite promises before the election to let the largest block rule. Man on bike is the new prime minister, Stefan Löfven. Boy in black and in the back is Jimmie Åkesson, leader of the far-right nationalist Sweden Democrats, that helped to stop the new governments budget from passing in parliament. -"Oh, the Alliance budget is in effect until the snap elections, then we can keep getting läx-RUT money! -"The welfare line, I love it!" Context: As mentioned above, the right-wing parties of the old ruling coalition presented their own budget in opposition to the sitting government. Thanks to the support of the Sweden Democrats, it passed. RUT is a tax-break for "domestic" services, making it cheaper to hire maids, clean your house, clean your pool, hire catering for your children's birthday parties and so on. Läx-RUT is a tax break for hiring private tutors to help your children with homework, and tons of companies have sprung up with the sole business idea of exploiting this tax-break to the max. The government claims that the money can be put to much better use by improving schools in general and hiring more teachers, rather than aiding rich parents in hiring tutors. The man is making a pun of the phrase "arbetslinjen", or "work line", a phrase used by the old right-wing government to describe tough measures against sick pensioners, the unemployed and other lazy layabouts, combined with tax-breaks for rich people. -"What misery!" -"You have to understand: They had such high hopes for more radical environmental policies - before the election results came in." Context: The Green Party does far worse than expected in the election. And of course, A Charlie Hebdo cartoon. I have no idea what it's saying.

Elected officials have only one job, and that is implementing the will of a dozen or so rich white men that have been dead for 200 or so years. Their will as interpreted by other rich white men, that is.

Because the former is a big problem in the US and in combination with poor infrastructure contributes to DUI, amongst other things. Specialized stores.

alnilam posted:Leave it to JRROSE! to do precisely the pun everyone expected from the start. Did we get any others with this exact wording? This is the dumbest goddamn talking point. Yes, it is true that many of the leaders and ideological mentors of terrorist/liberation organizations are from more well-off backgrounds. Higher education, better social networks and access to wider media and subversive literature or material plays a part, I suppose. But they draw their inspiration from inequality (real or imagined), unemployment and discrimination. And of course, these factors allow these leaders to recruit large numbers of followers from these affected groups. Is this really such a foreign concept? Is discourse at the point where saying "These acts are heinous, but to finally put a stop to them we need to examine the root causes" equals "I LOVE ISIS?" No, that was a rhetorical question, since we've reached that point with mundane crime as well, even here in Europe
