Re: Vote NOW
It's just a reference to another quote, you know. Tobbe's point is to attack religion, not black people

Well, American politics does get easily sickening, afterall. I'm already tired of hearing about the debates. :\Limely wrote:I haven´t put much thought into this. At all.

You know, I've been talking with a friend of mine about Tobbe's sig, and I found that it's the image itself that I have a problem with more than the quote. I'd like an explanation for it please, as my friend and I see it as nothing more than xenophobic towards America. Sure America fucks up, but what other country doesn't?
Re: Vote NOW
As I always say to people about politics, NO country's system is perfect right now.
As far the image goes, it should be "American weigh" rather than "American way", how can you miss that?

Approximately one-third of the adult population is obese and an additional third is overweight. Do you need any further explanation?StaceyW wrote: You know, I've been talking with a friend of mine about Tobbe's sig, and I found that it's the image itself that I have a problem with more than the quote.

Re: Vote NOW
It's not really xenophobic, but you can't deny it is nationalist.

Re: Vote NOW
And being nationalist is a big no-no if you want any respect from me. 
Re: Vote NOW
I'm for Obama. The republicans fucked up enough already the last 8 years. I don't live in the USA tough.

Re: Vote NOW
I just switched to siding with Obama as well.
Re: Vote NOW
If you'll ask me Obama is going to win.
Re: Vote NOW
Please explain. It's a caricature of enormous amount of obese people in the US. It doesn't have any deep political message or anything.Xenon wrote:It's not really xenophobic, but you can't deny it is nationalist.
Re: Vote NOW
Personally I can't see how it's not, so I'd like you to explain.

Re: Vote NOW
Yeah Tobbe. Explain. Also explain the part of your sig which attacks black people and poor people.
Re: Vote NOW
I'm not attacking anyone but you, you moron.
I can't see how this is related to a fucking caricature drawing in any way.As an ideology, nationalism holds that 'the people' in the doctrine of popular sovereignty is the nation, and that as a result only nation-states founded on the principle of national self-determination are legitimate.[citation needed] Since most states are multinational, or at least home to more than one group claiming national status,[3] the pursuit of this principle has often led to conflict, and nationalism is commonly associated with war (both external and domestic), secession, and even genocide in contexts ranging from imperial conquest to struggles for national liberation.
Re: Vote NOW
Not that I really give a shit, but just to explain why it is....
It's not the text, but that pic in your sig. Being overweight is a way of life and has nothing to do with the country you're brought up in. It's just a stereotype that all/most of Americans are obese, and the pic in your sig makes a harsh joke of this. This is why it's nationalist.

Re: Vote NOW
You're using the wrong word. I'm not using the pic to glorify Norway or Norwegian, which would indeed be nationalist, I'm merely using it to make fun of the US.
Also, it seems that no Americans have made any negative comments to my sig pic. I can even recall Kelvin describing it as funny.
