You're defacing Paul's thread with your needless spam, and these could have been done with Paint or Paint Shop Pro, you'd never know... I just thought that I should post this to make it relevant, that Animal Farm is a great book and everyone should read it if they haven't. It's a satire on the Russian Revolution. |

Well try this; some satire I made myself, with my own two hands (plus Photoshop). 
Edit: thanks to short for hosting this one. And I never said I was looking for anything...any satire is good, but I'd hafta say the written is preferred, by me, at least. W00t! I started a revolution. |

Sorry Dauntless, I am the Revolution! 
Could you please explain your picture, I don't get it - I'm not too familiar with either of the groups portrayed. |

Haha, I get it, Napolean thinks outside the bun, he conquers the world 
Maybe this first one doesn't fit into the satire category but meh I like it :p you'd get it if you know history. 
The next picture: 
is a fake of THIS: 
which I personally ruins it. |

I think Bush is going to kick Kerry's ass, but... I still don't get the Napolean thing, maybe I'm not looking at it the right way though. Has anyone ever wondered why the Nazis were called the National Socialists (or something with socialists), and they weren't even socialist (to my knownledge). |

Well what does that have to do with satire? But I'll indulge you against my better judgement; My understanding is that the Nazis were fascists; fascists were socialists. But it could be that i have it wrong and that the party's name is just a euphemism. And the Napoleon thing? Just take it at face value; its Napoleon wearing a taco for a hat. |

lol thats a long stretch man, the last time an ethnic austrian took power = hitler, hiter in Nazi, so he brought nazi up. |

I think that one is cutting it close....that's pretty racist to say that just cuz he is from a country even NEAR Germany, that it basically makes him a Nazi. Even if he was from Germany and they said it...it'd be poor. I'm thinking its generally better to keep racism off our boards eh? |

Yeah, the picture says something about a rightist part, but a socialist would not be a rightist, it would be a leftist. |

Its made by ppl who doesn't want Arnold to be governer, but thats too late. And its at the same time critisizing the bush government or w/e for the economical disaster. |

But if the Nazis were socialist, then it is not an insult towards Arnold, it would not make too much sense. |
|
| Author: | Dauntless [ Mon Apr 12, 2004 4:19 pm ] |

Sure it would...They're basically saying that Arnold is gonna rule like a fascist just because of his ethnicity. And the "economic meltdown" part is referring to the previous governor parallel to the pre-Nazi government. |

dauntless: the nazis were not socialists (even tho its in their name) Quote: .that's pretty racist to say that just cuz he is from a country even NEAR Germany hitler was austrian (that was their point) |

That's what I thought, I read somewhere that they were conservative and big with free enterprise and that. Wasn't Arnold [insert last name (can't spell it)]'s father high up in the nazi party. |

Alright, well... a)They're still being racist. There is no b). |

Yes they are, they are saying that just because an Austrian in the early 1900s did something bad, that he will too. Fucking racists. |
