You're starting to sound pink to me, you dirty Commie bastard!

:thumbsup:

It's only because better off people are a world away from these problems, if they saw actually a starving 3rd world village first hand instead of just a few images of skinny children crying on the telly it'd change their perspective on things (unless they were complete sociopaths.)

This too. There's some truth here. And this combines very badly with what I was talking about in my last post. Very unfortunate.

We're also desensitized. How many charities have ads on the telly trying to pull our heartstrings with images of the little African kid(s), half naked with their bloated bellies and rib cage(s) showing? Here it seems like it is every third or forth ad, especially around Christmas. I just don't feel sympathy for them anymore, sadly. I just get angry at

a. The charities for quietly implying that if you don't donate, you are a horrible heartless bastard.

b. These ****ty countries. Most of them do have governments that could at least try to freaking fix things.

Except for the part where that should be China instead of the USA. #incorrectpoliticalcartoons

Cheez. That political cartoon CLEARLY depicts Europe exploiting a horrible racist parody of an African, not the US.

It was probably made by a European, too, because if an American drew that caricature than I have a vicarious vengeance quest to carry out.

 

[Tsuyu]

It fits the self-hating, politically correct European standard, yup-yup.

This thread gave me cancer.

Exactly.

Careless mistake aside, it should still be China.

Your argument is invalid.

That's... not what's wrong with the cartoon.

I... what argument?

Also, no, China is COMMUNISTIC capitalist exploitation. So, like capitalistic exploitation but with pious communist homilies on top.

 

[Tsuyu]

I meant the origins of the cartoon itself. Probably from some European artist.

Dude. "Politically correct" that cartoon ain't.

 

[Tsuyu]

I called the European standard politically correct, not the cartoon per say. European politics are politically correct to the point of absurdity.
