The American justice system -- notoriously biased against Jews.

Kirschen's Jonathan Pollard poo poo, while tedious and tunnel-visioned, never struck me as genuinely loving stupid in the way of a Ramirez or an Asay. But this? What the living Christ. Even giving him the benefit of the doubt as a citizen of a foreign country, there is no possible way he should be stupid and crazy enough to believe that the American government is targeting Jews.

Didn't Kirschen once make a cartoon that said something along the lines of "if the American justice system treated black people anywhere near as bad as it treats Jews (based on my sample size of one Jonathan Pollard) I bet we'd have heard something about all the racism by now :mad:

"? Because I could swear I remember him doing that and if I'm right it's basically the most :ironicat:

thing in existence.

Don't forget Kirschen hasn't lived in America for at least 40 years. One could give him the benefit of the doubt and say that for all he knows he's absolutely right.

It's even better than that!

I drew today's Golden Oldie twenty years ago this week, on March 21, 1991.

For me, the years have passed quickly. I suspect that for Jonathan that's not true. No one else in the history of the United States has ever received a life sentence for passing classified information to an ally - only Jonathan Pollard. The median sentence for this offense is two to four years. Even agents who have committed far more serious offenses on behalf of hostile nations have not received such a harsh sentence.

If our community's unforgivable lack of response to Pollard's outrageous treatment was an uncomfortable truth back then, in 1991 ...how much more despicable now, an unbelievable twenty years later, in 2011??!

Another MAD Magazine cartoon by Ted Rall!

A context for this one. The gimmick for this issue (#488 April 2008) was that it was supposedly done by a staff of monkeys. Everything in this issue is monkey themed. For example, instead of "Spy vs. Spy", we got "Spider Monkey vs. Spider Monkey"; The spoof for TV series "Monk" was "MONKey"; Sergio Aragones did "A Mad Look at Humans", with every gag being from the POV of monkeys; Al Jaffee did "Snappy Answers to Stupid Human Questions", with monkeys making sarcastic remarks, etc.

Ted Rall joined the bandwagon with a monkey version of "Fantabulaman", a superhero parody that he does for the magazine.

Ramirez saw a black guy make news with some amount of negative reaction in some circles, and his instinct was "how can I associate this with Obama". Ramirez probably assumes it's just another generic "a thing happened, that thing is a one-size-fits-all political metaphor" cartoon, but really, this connection makes no sense at all (there hasn't been a conservative "obama is blustering bad sport" meme going around) except in the context of "hey everybody, look how black people act!" gently caress you, ramirez.

I just realized that the Dry Bones guy is in fact the same guy who did some comics in the Big Book O' Jewish Humor I have read at my relatives' house. (His comics there are more about daily Israeli life or matters like Jews for Jesus, and seem much more relaxed)

I hate Richard Sherman but I hate Ramirez too, so that cartoon cancels itself out and I cannot see it.

And really, not seeing Ramirez cartoons is the best way to experience Ramirez cartoons.

All recorded music is a "record", you're thinking of "vinyl records". It's like complaining that you wanted DVDs, not "videos".

Normalized to the point of humour.

It reminds me of a documentary I saw about German Jokes during WW2, which revealed that the whole idea where people didn't know what was going on in the camps was bollocks because there were so many jokes about what was going on in those camps that were too accurate to just be black humour guesses.

What I'm saying is that in 100 years time when something has actually been done about this then we're going to have a rough as gently caress time pretending that we didn't know it was happening, honest.

what documentary was that?
