Rorus Raz posted:The new Fire Emblem is really political.  Okay, so let's see, Judaism beats Islam, Islam beats Christianity, and Christianity beats Judaism, unless someone was smart enough to bring a Reaver weapon. Oh, and magic beats all three since it can attack from a distance and none of them have a ranged weapon. Also it looks like "anti-Jew" originally said something else and was erased/modified; you can really tell thanks to all the crosshatching. On that note, holy poo poo this guy crosshatches worse than Ramirez, which shouldn't be possible.  OAquinas posted:Edit2: Maybe it's my Dees radar going off, but is that a tiny star of David on the newspaper?  Benghazi or the people in the article title have any Jewish connections. Maybe the color version will clarify what it's actually supposed to be.

Ferroque posted:Nobody really cared when nearly every royal family in europe was related or interbred, for example Don't get into European genealogical research if you're uncomfortable with cousin marriages. 200 years ago the nobility were inbreeding like crazy cause their blood was better than anyone else's. Commoners didn't get out much, so marriage prospects were limited to whatever was available within a 15 kilometre radius of the village of birth.

Hey, how about some good crosshatching? 1 2Apparently the Redskins build a playground for some Sioux kids? I'd normally mock the sign in this cartoon, but goddamn they really doing everything they can to preserve that racist name.  3Haha the eagle on his chair   4Better than Bill Day's version.  5At first I thought he was getting high off casinos.  6A cover he did for a magazine, which I mainly posted because it's one of his few color works I've seen.

I was going to get mad at this, but then I noticed that it is the IDF Hot Jew making a Holocaust joke and so it is completely hilarious and not at all shameful and crass. I really dodged a bullet there, unlike a certain "Roosevelt" I can think of. Haha, that's comedy.

Wikipedia on Charles II of Spain posted:Toward the end of his life Charles' fragile health deteriorated and he became increasingly hypersensitive and strange, at one point demanding that the bodies of his family be exhumed so he could look upon the corpses. Out of curiosity, while looking for any political cartoons about the guy, I actually found a Political Cartoon about about Charles II, but it's about Charles II of England, not Charles II of Spain.  Obvious description posted:A political cartoon shows Scottish Presbyterians literally holding King Charles II’s nose to the grindstone.

fade5 posted:Oh come on, you can't just say that and then not link to the most famous inbred king of them all: Charles II of Spain. Choice facts about Charles II of Spain: 1. The last outbreeding in his family tree was approximately in the year 1550. 2. He was born in 1661. 3. Outbreeding is apparently a word. 4. I don't think I have enough appendages to count the total number of closed loops you can make in his family tree when you bring in the possibility of combining smaller ones. 5. He consists about half of the article on pedigree collapse, which is pretty relevant to this chat.

Supper was calling and I didn't have time to search out Charles' II family I also wondered if there were political cartoons in that period. Silly me, of course there were! There's probably cave paintings in Lascaux ridiculing the hunt leader for farting during the stalk and spooking the prey.

More like BLACK HITLER" comic, I'm numb to it by now, but gently caress man mazel tov is like the most well known Jewish thing in the world. If I went to some bumfuck cave in the Amazon and said 'hey do you know what mazel tov is for' the ancient sage locked within would probably go 'yea the Jews say it in celebration and all right'. So what, is Sam cheering on the coming death camps? Gettin mad over misuse of hebrew phrases during a literal holocaust comparison ITT.

achillesforever6 posted:Ben Affleck was on Bill Maher's show and had the audacity to call him out on being Islamophobic bigot. This is correct. While Europe was having some trouble in that sketchy period between the fall of the Roman Empire and the Rennaissance, Muslim societies were making huge scientific and cultural strides, bringing wonders like regular bathing and algebra to the world. Every society has made major contributions to science, art, literature and infrastructure. If you see a group of people currently in a bad way in terms of stability and development, it is a pretty safe bet that it's not because X Group is intrinsically barbarous or otherwise deficient, it's because they were on the losing side of an exchange with a greater power.

Now, and I don't say this often, to be fair to Bill Maher that wasn't what he said. He never said they had nothing good in their history, just that in their present state their views are "worse" than western views. He made way to many sweeping statements for me to want to defend him, but he never said anything close to saying they are intrinsically barbarous as compared to other people. He was stressing how they currently treat religious minorities, how they currently treat those who leave Islam, how they currently treat women, etc. He made the mistake of lumping 1.5 billion people into a single group and giving them Arab characteristics rather than Asian like the majority are, but that's different than what you're accusing him of.
