Sarah Palin And A Steak!

[DiveCon]

More bumping! Thankies, Si and CG!

if you actually think this makes you look good, you have serious issues

Is there any special reason you are making such personal, nasty remarks on this thread? That is not your usual style, DiveCon, and as I have not just run over your cat with my car, so I ask -- what gives?

see my last post

As Minister of Agitprop, I declare the OP a fail

Funny..

only to a totally sick and disturbed mind

oh, carry on

am I the only one who read sarcasm in that post?

"Sick and disturbed mind"? Are you serious? Political art is usually much more vicious when directed at an opponent.

Take a look.....

When did you become so ultra-sensitive to the slings and arrows tossed at politicans? We all know I could find images much more vicious than these. So what is it about free speech you suddenly find so repugnant?

 

[JBeukema]

That's how it's done, Mad

You're an idiot and you really need to work on that 'read comprehension' thing.

 

[JBeukema]

Are you paying attention, Mad?

 

[Madeline]

its not an ad
its a stupid animation with no original thought or comedy

Okay, so you did not laugh -- or get pissed off. I am sorry to hear it, but I cannot please everyone, DiveCon.

May we see a political art piece you do like, to compare?

good political art needs to be either totally factual, or at least have a ring of truth
this was just mean spirited and motivated by hate

WTF? Where did you get the idea that political art is "totally factual or at least has a ring of truth"? It's meant to be energizing and persuasive propaganda....but truthful? Hardly. Exaggeration and negativity are the most noticable qualities, for pity's sake.

You sure you are DiveCon? Not a hacker or sock puppet or something? I am just bumfuddled that you are taking such an idiotic POV here.

Yes I am, JB, but I have been away all day and just got back. Your images are far more offensive (if you were a viewer who supported their subjects) than my video IMO, but they are superior political art. It is supposed to be *shocking* and the images you've been posting certainly are that.

Apparently so is my video, though in a break from my own tradition, there are no bad words in it. The others I have made drop the F-bomb in nearly every sentence, LOL.

It is refreshing that at least some folks "get" the free speech thingie.

Jeeze, I am complimenting JB and tagging DiveCon? This should be a Friday the 13th here at USMB!

*Laughs*

 

[JBeukema]

That, maddie, is political art


That... is agitprop

 

[JBeukema]

Your video wasn't shocking. It wasn't funny. It wasn't even irritating.

It's just juvenile and lame.

The only thing making this thread worth reading is people taking my facetious comment about 'comparing a woman to a piece of meat' and running with it as though you made a broad generalization of women instead of comparing simply 9and lamely) insulting (or trying to) a particular woman.

Good laughs.

I don't care if someone reacts to "Sarah Palin And A Steak" with anger or even boredom. I mean, I would have loved it if everyone had found it hilarious but I knew that wouldn't happen. I'm just amazed at people on this thread who're suddenly confused about the "propriety" of having dared to make it at all. We dun run politics in the US like a Ladies Quilting Bee, and I dun think we ought to.

If you wanna see some VERY disturbing political art, google "Communist Chinese Propaganda Images" or "Nazi Germany Anti-Jewish Art". I bet the first caveman to draw on a cave wall drew a cartoon, mocking his boss, but this stuff is WAY beyond the pale.

O for the love of God, DiveCon, WTF? You CANNOT be serious! Political art is supposed to be mean spirited.

WTF is wrong with you today? You just arguing for argument's sake?

Your attempt to hide your inherent sexism is failing horribly.

Idiot.

WRONG

most political art would either make you roll your eyes or chuckle

Let's see some, please?

I cannot get why you are taking this POV; didn't you defend the beshitted Westboro Baptist Church's rights to free speech?

See, this is exactly why I defend free speech. It gives sexists like you the opportunity to reveal themselves for what they really are.

As you babble on so much here, we have had the opportunity to see how truly ugly and moronic you are, too.
