This is how they're trying to justify the murder of over 4,000 Palestinian children. Fucking disgusting.
When WaPo says "democracy dies in darkness", they don't mean it as a warning, they mean it as a promise.
It's the mission statement!
You know, Julius Streicher was executed for inciting violence against Jews, using racist caricatures to dehumanize them. Here, we see caricatures not too dissimilar to those found in Der Stürmer: an evil dark-skinned man with a big nose and beady-eyes. The only original thing here is how it dehumanizes his family as well, with his ugly, docile wife and children being strapped to him as a means to justify their deaths while also feign concern and empathy for them. Here is a more egregious example of something like that. It's not the only way Western media outlets have dehumanized Palestinians and rationalized the genocide taking place against them but it's sure as hell the one most on the nose in regards to Holocaust parallels.
Not bringing all this up for any particular reason
Ew, that example is somehow worse for me. Like the ugly ass boomer art is racist, no shit, but that weird corporate emoji artstyle hurts in a way that is difficult to define. It's like the racist boomer picture hurts my eyes, but that one hurts my soul.
To me, it's because that style is almost exclusively used by corporations to blanket the fact that they're forcing a (usually pro-corporate) perspective to a captive audience. So the subliminal message here based on how it's widely used says "here's how we want you to think" as opposed to the ugly boomer one just "trying to make a racist point"
Yeah, the boomer art is racist. You expect to be disappointed. But the corporate style is a lot more sinister
i can only hope we see the same thing happen to the US and vassal leaders if we manage to survive ww3
Most racist thing I've seen in years
looking at this feels like being back in 2001 all over again
Ah, Michael Ramirez. I remember Something Awful making fun of his dogshit political cartoons back in the mid-10s. Seems he hasn't changed since then.
He was the one who really likes to draw big boats, right? Those were some fun threads.
The human shield accusation stopped working for me when I was a teenager, decades ago. The so-called "adults in the room" are not impressing me with their intellect.
How are people shocked that a group fighting to liberate Gaza operates out of Gaza?
these people are choosing to believe in nonsense, they're proud of it. the more myths you believe, the more of a patriot you are.
IT'S A FUCKING CONCENTRATION CAMP! IT'S BEEN UNDER SIEGE FOR ALMOST TWO DECADES! IT'S ONE OF THE MOST DENSELY POPULATED PLACES ON EARTH! ALL PALESTINIAN RESISTANCE IS SELF-DEFENCE! FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU
Does anyone remember when the iof tied Palestinian children to their vehicles using them as human shields? Search engines are flooded with the latest news but I swear I remember that happening. Every accusation is a confession i swear
Wild amount of projection to say that Hamas does this when every noncombatant Israeli settler is a human shield for Israel
whoever drew that and everyone who signed off of it should walk into the sea
From the river to the sea and then just keep going
Soda Popinski looking mother fucker
He looks like if a boomer caricature of a person came to life. Is that why he draws like this? Because he's a real life boomer cartoon?
Ok so let's assume this actually is happening. Is the solution in a hostage situation to just go full rambo and murder everyone? I don't think that's part of the hostage protocoll.
Hostage protocol, no. Hannibal directive, yes.
michael ramirez goes on the chopping block and we'll hand kelly the axe
the washington post making something both vile and racist? say it ain't so!
Hope this ramirez guy dies drowning in pig shit
[slammed]
marvel did it first
but jesus christ that "political" cartoon is so fucked
