Re: 139
(Anonymous) 2008-12-01 03:08 am (UTC)(link)To get so very upset either way about an amusing comic drawn by one person is ridiculous. Furthermore, the pieces in question don't depict what occured as right or wrong, either way; instead, they deal with covering the alliances between each nation at that time. At no point does "Germany" break off into a tirade about Jews, and "Japan" does not express his hatred of the Chinese. Without covering the moral implications, it simply discusses international relations in a humourous way. The author never says that he thinks the Holocaust or the Rape of Nanking were funny.
Getting so angry and hurt about these things is simply silly. If I pull old politcal cartoons from a textbook making fun of the Red Scare, will angry Russian-Americans come out to bash me? What about the Dr. Seuss cartoons that deal with racism?
The point of things like these is not to say that what happened didn't matter, or that you should forget it, or anything of the sort. But to continue harboring such hatred and anger makes no sense; these enemies are long gone, and especially in these times, it's good to have something to soothe such hurts. Even if they still make you offended, you don't have to look at them.
I'll be honest, also deciding to hate a favorite hobby because of ONE work within the genre you like is, frankly, stupid. I'm not going to stop enjoying fantasy novels because I find Anne Rice's works distasteful, or because I thing Eragon is cliche. I'm also not going to force people to agree with me. I simply ask that when sharing opinions, people be civil. I believe anyone can think whatever they like, so long as they don't get in my face about it. After all, a person's rights are unlimited until they begin to infringe on another person's rights, and I have a right not to be yelled at, just as everyone else does.
... [/tl;dr] I apologize. In short, please, calm down. To say either way that this cartoon is "wrong" or "right" is silly, because honestly, does anyone including the fans seriously base important viewpoints off of it? I don't think anyone reading it is suddenly going to think war is amusing just because of a silly stereotypical cartoon.
