If you want to be new Hitler you have to find old Hitler down at his residence in Argentina and eat his still beating heart.

Only if they're a proper evil clone, one of those ironic good clones of Hitler won't cut it.

edit: Also they need to have grown the mustache. The mustache is very important to the whole thing.

In the past, I have defended elements of the politoons thread, and enjoyed more of what came from it than not. While my heart tells me that that is still true, the facts and evidence now reveals that it is not.

Some one poo poo on rorus raz for producing funny edits. How the gently caress can some one be down on one of the few quality posters in that poo poo heap of a thread? (Full disclosure, I follow and post in the politoons thread religiously. I am not one of the good posters.)

I somehow missed that as the thread degenerated into people striving to be the most ~*nuanced*~ about the Paris shooting. Christ, edits and Ye Fowl Herald are the main reason I defended that thread to begin with.

Shouldn't you make a cute donkey edit about the whole thing? Maybe a donkey with his pants around his ankle getting murdered by terrorists for freely expressing himself? That would be hilarious, right?

It's funny, I thought that thread was going downhill because it's an insular circle jerk going through the same basic forms on a cycle, but then fresh blood came in today and it somehow got worse.

I liked Brannock's post about how would politoon goons react if some Israeli killed Latuff for his cartoons.

Also WitchFetish and Tatum are good posters. :colbert:

They have become acclimated to the over labeling they despise and it has atrophied what was once their brain.

Most of the people who post here are very young men who don't have the cultural vocabulary to get references even when the artist writes them in large block letters on top of the picture.
