"Yeah, actually, that third section where you veer off at a 90-degree angle, then drive in two big arcs to get to some random cul-de-sac, and then just loving turn around and do them over again to get right back where you started. That's a horrible route. Why are you doing that? Who signed off on this? Why are you making so many U-turns throughout the whole thing? Just drive in a loving straight line, Earl."

the old-man-est cartoon quote:

Mister Beeg posted:Yep, and that actually pissed off a lot of people when it first came out. Fiorello La Guardia, mayor of New York City at the time, had to call for police protection at the offices of Marvel Comics because they got so many death threats against them. Just want to throw out a blanket book recommendation for anyone fascinated by this, The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay is a really good book but heads up it's also super depressing

The funny part is that even if that Churchill quote were real, that Trump tweet shows more accurately what its real meaning would have been (ie not that people who fight fascists are automatically double-fascist)

D.N.

HA HA YOU WIMPS ARE DEFENDING THE NAZI; I mean, the majority of the mainstream liberals I know laughed their asses off at it, but y'all do you guys. how exactly are you seeing factional salt in this cartoon Bors is expressing the same viewpoint multiple people in this thread have been expressing for pages upon pages -- fascism is the ultimate evil, opposing it even via violence is a morally good act, and objections to that violence ignore historical precedent and grossly equivocate. It's pretty straightforwardly a philosophical assertion, not an assignment of blame to your faction. Put plainly, I think you're reading this implication in and it comes off as a little defensive.

Cat Mattress posted:Well what is your argument then? I really don't want to dive any further into this argument than I already have, but for clarity's sake the thesis seems to be that Stalin was the one who ethnically cleansed them; it wasn't a pro-Nazi argument but an anti-Stalin one in response to someone posting a pro-USSR image earlier

Duke Igthorn posted:My brother went from a Lefty, to "We must LISTEN to the enemy!! THAT'S why Trump won!!" idiot after the election, to unironically sharing pro-Trump anti-poor memes. He's just loving lost it and I'm so very worried about him. It's like my brother decided "if you can't beat them, join them" was the only option, he insists he's not right wing, he's just holding the rightwing and leftwing to the same standards which, apparently, means cheering everything the right does while booing everything the left does, He said all the same poo poo the Nazi apologists have been for the last 5 pages, "But what if it wasn't a Nazi???" "Then...it wouldn't have been ok...I mean...he's a Nazi..." "But what if it WASN'T????" "Then it wouldn't be ok? Cause then it wouldn't be a Nazi?" "But it's ok if it IS a Nazi???" "Yeah...they're Nazis..." "But what if it WASN'T a Nazi????" etc etc etc Like every single thing in life ever is unquestionably a slippery slope instead of, you know, starting and ending at loving Nazis. I think in conversations like these it's important to establish that you don't actually want to legalize the punching of people as long as they are Nazis, and that while you applaud the actions of the brave soul who was willing to risk arrest to punch someone who had to be punched, you still recognize that the punch itself was and should be against the law Sort of like a Robin Hood situation except with Nazi-punching

If I had to guess, Red Panels guy's stated preferred government type might not be fascist dictatorship, even if he does spend a suspicious amount of time drawing cartoons defending the idea. He might be just be a white-nationalist republican (in his own words anyway)

I'm continually amazed at how surface-level of an understanding on a subject someone can have while calling millions of other people ignorant on it Like, it took me five seconds' thought to find two different ways of countering this: (a) the USSR and Nazi Germany started off WW2 as allies of convenience and would have stayed that way indefinitely if Hitler's ambition hadn't gotten the better of him, and oh yeah (b) Russia is no longer a communist country you loving idiot so this reference is completely worthless

Shangri-Law School posted:"Foggy Bottom" is shorthand for the State department, she's not referring to the literal neighborhood. Benson is justifying our lack of a functioning State department by grouping all the officials that Trump fired with the "swamp." Well, sir, I'm Jordan Rivers, and these are the Foggy Bottom Boys, out of Cottonillia, Mississippi. Fongs of falvation to falve the foul.

Then you pop up to tell me that "u stoopid" is part of the fabric of healthy debate that I should embrace and respond to. If it helps, I don't think you're necessarily stupid, I just think you're really reaching for excuses to criticize someone you were already mad at for other reasons, and are now just sort of saying whatever because you're mad that nobody else is going along with it
