It's a cliche to say that conservative politicians in Europe are at the same place as mainstream Democrats in the U.S., but am I right to think that immigration is the one issue where the European right is as bad as the American right?

If anything worse, .... butTrump has brought us down to their level though so think more past tense. The GOP used to buy a tad into the country of immigrants idea, and reserved most bile for undocumented people. Trump changed that.

Still not as bad as Australia though lol!

There's a pretty big gulf between "the US fails to reckon with the full human costs of the wars it wages" and "the Soviets didn't cry about it when 26 million Soviets died, so don't be a pussy, be like a 1940s Soviet propagandist" which is a terrible take and is also Rall's take.

Also other countries all have their huge melodramatic grievances they constantly bring up, proportional or no. Sometimes in victory, sometimes in mourning. Often times about something that happened forever ago.
And uh yeah actually the Soviets/Russians do make a huge deal about WW2, which just makes it all the dumber.

Why is she talking to a corpse?

Idris Elba is not just black, he's talented, handsome, confident, cool, likable, charming, witty, and more. It would be hard to cast a better James Bond (Daniel Craig was a great choice too), and the only thing that could possibly hold him back from the role is the fact he's black, which is a ridiculous reason not to cast him to play this completely fictional character whose background is not so well-defined anyways and can be, and has been, rebooted successfully and easily. I think that that fact is so obvious makes racists very uncomfortable.

He's also British, which I think drives certain types of American white supremacist (the Idenity Evropa types) absolutely insane, because it's a black person that by all actual counts is more culturally European than they are.

Yeah we can add "Girls will think you're weird if you don't want to initiate sex without asking them!" to the list of :stare: takes that has come out since Ford's letter got leaked.

It is definitely a problem that initiation is so genderized in society though. Boys are raised expected to initiate, in many cases aggressively, to be the "hunter". While girls are raised to be the receptive passive party, and boy howdy do they often get loads of poo poo for being forthright about sex.
What this results in is a loving mess where issues of consent and so on enter the picture, because both genders are being given mixed retarded messages.
Nobody should be feeling pressured to play to some sexist script when it comes to hooking up casually or seriously.

So no the cartoon is identifying a real problem..... that the cartoon is likewise going "GOLLY THIS WAS ALL SWELL UNTIL THE FEMINISTS STARTED COMPLAININ'" about.

I think the "Are Italians White" thing is also a real thing in extremely online alt-right circles (that sounds pretty redundant I guess). They have no problem relitigating things that mainstream American racism already decided on awhile ago.

You're supposed to come into it with the pre-existing idea that the Founding Fathers were paragons of righteousness and decency that we should strive to emulate. So, obviously, pointing out the fact that they hated those brown swarthy French, Irish, and Italians is an effective rhetorical tactic that will make modern Americans also hate the Irish (or, what they really want, brown people and Slavs and Jews) because it's just a fundamental constant of the universe that you should want to be more like the Founders.

This, incidentally, is part of why it's loving idiotic to keep pretending the Founders were good people.

The alt-right super loves Slavs. They're the great white noble savages that still raise their swords to fight off the musslemen, and haven't succumbed to the feminist homo diversity heresy of the west west.

Countries with plumbing issues do not flush paper if they can help it because you will clog up your drat pipes like a moron. Whether that plumbing issue is third world infrastructure, or constant issues with historical preservation coming up anytime someone digs five feet below the city pavement, this is yer issue.
