This is a comic in technical terms, but also political propaganda. I am not sure this type of content belongs in this community, regardless of which "side" the comic defends or attacks.
Yeah, It's not even a real Comic I'd argue. Probably best to just remove it.
So the mods will remove it, and ban the troll? Right?
Because Comic strips have always been known for their political neutrality.
There's quite a story being told in a single image. Such as the form of the blood on his boot.
"These two things are both bad and are therefore equivalent" is my least favourite human logical fallacy
Both Russia and israel are committing war crimes and therefore should both be banned from the Olympics.
What happened to all the liberals asking for Russia to be banned when they were committing war crimes?
Is it okay when israel does it?
Which US soldiers are competing in the Paris Olympics?
Any country with leadership that commits war crimes should not be allowed to compete. Israel, the US, China, doesn’t matter who. Also, any soldier working for a foreign army that is well known for committing atrocities should absolutely not be allowed to compete.
Make it easy.
I get what the meme is saying, but IMO it’s not executed as clearly and well as it could’ve been.
Yep. But we were making a big deal out of Russia doing it so pot meet kettle.
Letting israel participate is a stunning display of hypocrisy to the world.
Even allowing one country to compete and not another leads to a slippery slope. Like suddenly we’re letting one slide while the other can’t compete based on some arbitrary rules? Sounds like favoritism and/or pay-to-play. The US pulls so many strings, it makes sense why Israel gets a pass when they don’t deserve one. It’s all about US influence.
