So this insipid attempt to stoke the damp tinder of gun control.
I didn’t make it very far into the video, its vastly more lame than I could have thought.
Still over at ENDO Viktor made this comment:
Art Spiegelman? Maybe he forgot how the dogs defeat the cats in his graphic novel…
For those not in the know, Spiegelman made one of the more impressive graphic novels of my time. Maus, which is a graphic narrative of Spiegelman’s own father’s survival of the Nazi Holocaust.
The title simply means “Mice” in German, and it depicts the Jews as Mice, the Ethnic Pols as Pigs, the Nazis as cats, and allied forces as dogs.
It’s like Mr. Spiegelman is buying that whole “Progressive” troupe that’s being pushed that the Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto would have been better off if they had simply cooperated with the Nazi forces.
Sick and sad. Also understandable that this is going nowhere.
Still it makes some pointy-headed “Intellectuals” FEEEEL better, and gives them something to brag about while they have lavish parties and talk about the plight of the poor.
Man, I stopped about 2/3’s teh way in. When they there just kept repeating “demand action NOW, demand action NOW…”
Two points: First, I noticed they didn’t recommend what action to take.
And second, they are in a huff for congress to act (NOW) but all they are willing to do is whine to congress.
Its not art, its propaganda. I’d use the word definitive of how propaganda works.
If you think its not substitute anything (race, sex or other especially cars) for the
image of the gun or the words in that and see if it doesn’t fly the same way.
There is no question, ban guns, is what their pea brains barely think.
It’s real simple (they are simple) What they are saying is I have no clue what to do
or what the problem is… but somebody, anybody has to do something. Every time
I hear that in my head the governor of Texas in “Best Little whorehouse in Texas”
Dance a little sidestep Charles Durning and all. All their doin is a little sidestep
as the needs to keep their cushy political jobs.
Eck!
