The worst part is how unsurprised I am Trump fans are making memes about mass murder.

Or authoritarian idol-worship... 
Does anyone take Donald Trump seriously, anymore?

I could make another Hitler comparison, but I think I've run out of them.

Because he does things like suggest that gays just might be human, that divorcees just might not be forever irredeemably tainted, and that non-priests just might be worthy of having the Pope pay attention to them on Holy Thursday.
Quote from: Jordan Duram
It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe? Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned and in whose name the most horrendous acts can be sanctioned without appeal?

Quote from: Supreme Court of Canada
Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

I kinda knew from the start the Samara Weaving photo was fake. Yeah, she had blood on her, but she looked so passive about it. She wasn't grimacing in pain like you'd expect or even glassy like someone who's gone psychologically numb after being exposed to more pain than they could handle. And I don't think that hand in the photo is hers. It's probably the make-up artist's.

Old but gold: http://imgur.com/gallery/lGE8t Anti-suffragette propaganda.

The main theme's seem to be "these women are ugly, unladylike and if men are forced to do 'women's work' then it is demeaning and horrible."

Note that you will still find the same old "ugly women are always on the 'wrong' side" argument even today. I think one of the many complaints about Hillary Clinton has been that she is ugly and old in comparison to Trump's wife...
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

So in the second worst thing I learned today, racist Trump fans (but I repeat myself) have made a popular internet meme about Trump throwing Clinton, Sanders and left wingers in general out of helicopters inspired by Augusto Pinochet's practice of murdering people the same way.

I don't want to stain my browser history by looking them up, but you can see some of them here

This comic is creating some controversy in Australia and indigenous people are angry at the way the comic represents them.

Bill Leak has done it again!

To me, the really offensive part isn't even the words - it's the horrifying racial stereotyped drawing. It's like something out of fucking Sturmer

Okay help me out, I'm trying to decide if this is Poe or not



On one hand it's fucking stupid and can't possibly be serious.

On the other hand it was apparently posted unironically on an alt-right facebook group.
