I found a British editorial cartoon from 1945 that looks like it could have been done by a certain political cartoon thread favourite:

I was afraid that was the vote on putting support for gay marriage in the platform, but it was the vote for putting language back in referring to God and calling Jerusalem the capital of Israel. Whew, just caving to Republican caterwauling again.

Crasscrab posted:Those are Assad supporters in Syria. Fun fact: The few photos of Stirner to exist are not very flattering, so proponents often use Engels' doodle of his face in place of a photograph in anthologies of his works or anarchists works in general. Anarchist/labor history buffs like myself have seen that little thing hundreds of times (though I would never call Stirner an anarchists, many editors, anthologists and fans still do). Have a photo of the angry German and compare for yourself, I think he looks like a regular dude of the time: Also, have one of a much more dapper dude, the anarchist princeling Kropotkin!

McDowell posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zU9lv_WqK6k Just to point out Phil Collins is and has always been a right wing poo poo. quote:Collins has often been mentioned erroneously in the British media as being a supporter of the Conservative Party and an opponent of the Labour Party. This derives from the famous article in the Sun, printed on the day of the 1992 UK general election, titled "If Kinnock wins today will the last person to leave Britain please turn out the lights", which claimed that Collins was among several celebrities who were planning to leave Britain in the event of a Labour victory. Shortly before the 2005 election (when Collins was living in Switzerland), Noel Gallagher is reported as saying: "Vote Labour. If you don't and the Tories get in, Phil is threatening to come back."

My girlfriend has never been overly political, though she's always kept up on current events reading The Week (http://theweek.com/). It's basically the printed magazine form of Google News. Over the last year I've introduced and defined a lot of labor and other socialist ideals which she didn't have a ton of knowledge. This morning I got an email form her which I think could not any more succinctly explain the ridiculousness of the US's current immigration policy: quote:These roofers redid my neighbor's roof today. They showed up at 8 'o clock on the dot and the team of 6 or so immediately began laying tarps and setting up ladders. The way they worked was so amazingly efficient. Obviously they were consummate professionals. And all the while they were working they were Carrying on friendly banter, whistling, and singing along to the radio. Of course I couldn't understand any of it; it was all in Spanish. When I went outside to load up my car they waived from above. When I had to bring my bike along the side of the house where they were working, they stopped for me and said, "careful.". By the time I had to leave the house just before noon they had already removed all the old shingles, replaced the underlayer, and relaid half of the shingles. When I returned home late at night you would have never known such an operation had occurred that day. The roof and yard looked untouched, except that the roof was now spotless and brand new. All that I can think of is, "why would anyone want to anything but venerate and extol the virtues to the kinds of people who do this kind of work?" additionally, "how can anyone argue that we would be better off without immigration, without unions and workers rights, without all the supports that enable people to rise out of poverty, all the while providing the population with the very basic necessities such as someone to do a beautiful and efficient job of putting on a new roof?". To was our dishes, to clean our houses, etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVwJrAr7GkY c0ldfuse fucked around with this message at 14:10 on Sep 6, 2012 |

I live next to a US Army Lt. Colonel. We don't talk because he's a fundamentalist rear end in a top hat. I had to get a new roof and took out a poo poo load of bids and this one company came in $5k cheaper than the 10k bids I was getting. Obviously I took that bid. I was expecting some problems for my money saving actions but what I got was a team of Guatemalans that did the work perfectly, cleanly, swiftly, just amazing work. Done in a single day, nobody even smoked on my property. Super friendly etc. Well, this Army Colonel bitched me out the kids' bus stop for hiring probable illegals to do my roof, I mean he went loving off about it. I told him all my crazy leftist opinions on the matter and moved on with my life. About a month a later, a storm damaged his roof and I saw many contractors coming to do the bid on his roof. He went with one I used.

Fluo posted:Just to point out Phil Collins is and has always been a right wing poo poo. Talking about british musicians, I didn't know that Eric Clapton likes to shout "Keep Britain white" when he's drunk. Guardian article posted:It was 5 August 1976 and Eric Clapton was drunk, angry and on stage at the Birmingham Odeon. 'Enoch was right,' he told the audience, 'I think we should send them all back.' Britain was, he complained, in danger of becoming 'a black colony' and a vote for controversial Tory politician Enoch Powell whom he described as a prophet was needed to 'keep Britain white'. Although the irony was possibly lost on Clapton, the Odeon in Birmingham is on New Street, minutes from the Midland Hotel where eight years earlier Powell had made his infamous 'Rivers of Blood' speech. But if the coincidence was curious, the hypocrisy was breathtaking: Clapton's career was based on appropriating black music, and he had recently had a hit with Bob Marley's 'I Shot the Sheriff'. http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2008/apr/20/popandrock.race http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_Against_Racism Also David Bowie and his admiration for Adolf Hitler (second link), although that seemed to be in character. Or whatever. e: connection too crappy to embed stuff from imgur, so have a link http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/118/a/8/eric_clapton_is_batman_by_mardawar-d4xv3j6.jpg
