I was watching this talk on Offence by Rowson which is interesting. He did say something which I think really separates him from the vast majority of cartoonists, especially in the US, which is that the role of the satirist is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable, don't attack people for what they are, but for what they think and to only attack those more powerful than him; don't punch down. Also, this place is amusing.

Just that allowing tragedy to cover up the fact that these cartoons are vile and are a part of a larger problem in French society is just falling into an easy narrative about terrorism and anti-muslim thought.

Brannock posted:If Latuff got murdered by a Israeli fascist or something like that would people be talking about how Latuff pissed off people with his cartoons and maybe if he didn't want to get murdered he should have been more respectful or, perhaps, even, not draw those cartoons in the first place? Pretty sure that's Latuff's dream way of getting killed.

OrthoTrot posted:Fair enough. I agree. But what you said at first seemed to suggest that because anti semitism could be read into anything we should pretty much ignore accusations of it. If there's another meaning to what you said I'd love to hear it. My point was not to ignore it (one only needs to look at A Wyatt Man cartoons to see this), but that people will use the cry of 'antisemitism' to shut down and attack anything they dislike, regardless of merit. It's almost a 'boy who cried wolf' thing. In the case of Latuff I have trouble taking an organization who labels him the 3rd worst antisemite in the world, ahead of literally Nazi parties in Eastern Europe who actually have real political and social power, instead of a cartoonist in Brazil.

Interestingly, approximately 90% of people trying sovereign or sovereign-type crap give up and go away the first time they get smacked down. They never try it again. It's only a very small proportion who persist after failure. If you slam them early and hard most will never try it again. One of our local judges has a great way of dealing with them when they won't identify themselves, which is basically to say 'Oh? They're not here? Ok, warrant for their arrest issued.' Most then promptly say they are present.

Fulchrum posted:People thinking Muir would be emboldened by a Secret Service visit are overlooking that he is a gigantic coward. While they were there he'd be terrified. Once gone you might think that he'd draw more of his empowerment fantasy comicsabout how he totally used badass kung fu to take on Obamas private army, except he'll know doing that would make them come back. A visit from the SS is the best thing that could happen for Muir, short of being thrown in jail by them. It would do nothing but give him some degree of recognition he shouldn't have, and feed into his paranoia. The best thing for anyone to do is ignore him, rather than feed him attention.
