I supported Charlie's right to drawn the prophet. I don't support anyone's right to be surprised when they get attacked by radical muslims. Part of me thinks they actually knew it was coming, a general violent threat or action, and the acted as martyrs. Certainly not to any cause i recognize or appreciate, but to their own i'm sure they feel like heroes.

I'd be surprised if they will face any real consequences for this cover. I think it's a about a bell pepper on the hotness equivalent of funny scale, but it's not entirely brainless. At least it's active social commentary and satire rather than random attacks on people's faith taboos. In the stage our politics are in there really isn't an off-base type of satire. When the regular is this fucking dumb how much more oversimplified and silly can you get?


For all the accusations of "nazi" going around, texan 'nazis' arent particularly keen on invading France 'again'

My mind went from 'lol' to 'what would be an exception?' to 'i would pick a fight with FDR'

Yeah, the leader of the KKK just came out saying he wished Obama would be president again.

He said that right after the pigs started flying.



In the real world, he talked about Trump's implicit support being obvious and how exciting it is to have a president who hates Mexicans.

That's not their agenda, so...why would they make that cartoon?


I don't see much of an agenda besides making bad jokes immediately following tragic events, seems like that would fit their MO.

Well he defeated Hitler and strangled the Great Depression, and looked classy doing it.

I believe they're a liberal media source, and liberals tend to favor offering sanctuary to immigrants. Publishing anti-immigrant cartoons would be contrary to their agenda.
