I know it’s because the artist is Muslim but I really wish non-Muslims were saying this.
Lots of us have been, way, way before the governments of Europe were willing to say as much. Trump, and most of Congress, is still a bunch of complicit assholes. We’re just not made out of cartoons.
They do, a lot actually.
I’m aware, just want more.
Benjamin Netanjahu is a war criminal
still chill
I am reminded of this banger of a song by They Might Be Giants:
I know politics bore you
But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you
And your racist friendhttps://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/theymightbegiants/yourracistfriend.html
If that’s being said out of the blue it’s not remotely chill
Now, I agree with her, but the cartoon falls flat.
She’s not just being chill she is being 100% accurate.
It’s no different than going to a dinner and saying Adolf Hitler was a bad guy.
Tbf “We’re having a nice dinner, do we have to talk about the horrors of the holocaust, again? Can we talk about something nice for a few minutes?” is a valid want.
Especially in a world inundated with 24/7 news cycles constantly feeding news to make people scared for ratings, and an internet consolidated into six fucking websites full of those scared people posting about those same things, and all art being made by those scared people so it also contains allusions to the same sentiment, sometimes you just want to talk about that cute thing your cat did earlier, what fun book you’re reading, how cool salamanders are, whatever, and that’s fine.
A few times Ive had to tell my other half “Can we talk about literally anything else for the next hour”. I know what is going on because of the things you pointed out, and sometimes I want to exist for five minutes without hearing that the fbi is hiring puppy fuckers or whatever is happening today.
Guys come on, it’s christmas. Even Hitler had a family…
Things can be both factually true and bad dinner conversation at the same time lol
I don’t get it. All I see is someone being chill.
I mean, they probably didn’t say that out of the blue, right?
I have my reservations about the curly-haired one who expects friends to shut up in front of bigoted hosts.
Meanwhile everyone else will just use vieled comments to punch down and instigate. But that’s fine because they’re “just telling it like it is”. Fuck that shit. Walk into every room decrying nazis and shame anyone who protests. It is impossible for things to be chill while fascist abound, they’ll make sure of it.
I mean… Obvious facts are pretty chill. The sky is blue at noon. Healthy grass is green. Genocide is happening in Gaza.
Seems pretty chill to me
she only speaks the truth
“Thanks for telling me, but what am I supposed to do about it? I’ve got work in the morning and deadlines are getting tight.”
Just being aware of it is farther than a lot of other people have gotten.
That’s a pretty chill thing to say if you’re among chill people.
but then, if they were chill you wouldn’t need to say it at all.
Sometimes you just want to express the truth.
