[Anthony]

someone please explain the screw up.

 

[David Kronenbourg]

He accidentally or not depending on how you look at it drew a cartoon of a Jewish man featuring loads of antisemitic tropes - pigs, octopuses, money exaggerated facial figures, puppets

Very unfortunate

Did anyone even know that this Sharp fella was a believer?

Cartoonist was so obsessed with his scat theme, he walked right into a hate crime.


Didn't even know the octopus thing - would have assumed it was a Goldman Sachs/Taibbi reference. Shit, maybe that was anti-Jew also.
Oy vey!

He’s saying it was, others disagreeing

Fucking Taibbi

 

[JohnnyRaz]

apparently mao decided that the soviets naming cities after people was the height of cringe, so he decreed that nowhere in china would ever be named after a person, and they’ve basically stuck to that ever since.

Yeah, but he did have his name on his restaurant chain at one point, so that’s a bit hypocritical in my book..

Simone deBeauvoir

Inappropriate riding in the boudoir don't you know

TCD managements cards well and truly marked

“There was some book that came out that talked about her and grooming, and it was decided not to select her,” according to the source. “She was a popular candidate with staff and students, but it became apparent she couldn’t be included.”

Simone de Beauvoir dropped from TCD statue plan over alleged ‘grooming’ of sex partners

Concerns about feminist author’s reputation meant she did not make final shortlist for busts in Old Library

Yeah.
People don't look at the issue, they are scared of the shitshow.
Most everyone at an institution in situations like this is just trying to get ahead of the mob. Of the denunciations. Of the twitter show trial.

It's just easier to see when the decision is shoddily done.
if it's something we agree with, it tends to come off as more noble. But it's mostly craven.

I definitely didn't know he was a member of the tribe.

 

[Cormcolash]

I think he's about as Jewish as me

 

[Space]

There's two people in the cartoon.
