i do wonder if many people may have different values, but just agree to censor it for their own social and economic livelyhood
maybe not #1 reason, but probs top 3 reason why varied views and freedom of speech matters, nobody should have to lie about their actual beliefs
Yes, and the way that institutions discriminate on political viewpoint and have been playing censor is the whole driver of this "ideological diversity" stuff that's going around.
Peer pressure is the word you're looking for
I have to be up in 3 hours and stay awake/alert for the next 10
Am I boned?
How long have you been up already?
@R9b1t that 3 month break basically takes what is normally only like 6-7 actual working months when you factor in holidays and such, and basically undoes 1-2 months of it. So really almost the first quarter to third of the year is typically spent relearning stuff already learned the previous year. leaving probably closer to 4 months of actual learning. really of rote memorization.
The guy that made that Serena Williams cartoon is banned

lol
Can’t have wrongthink.
@Atkins dude thats fucked
Is twitter going to bann theheraldsun also ?
Good point. Let's make this clear. Twitter are banning artists.
Id ask tim to cover it but he might get banned also
Hang on. Has he been banned or did he delete his twitter?
It's pretty normal for political cartoonists to make ugly exaggerated caricatures of public figures. That's kind of the point.

@Poppy Rider good question
Dont know
I feel like twitter banned him
i'd show examples of his artwork exagerating facial features but most examples were on his twitter ....
Lots of them feature hooked noses, massive ears, poofy lips, bulging eyes. His depictions of Tony Abbott are particularly exaggerated.
I really think they're just taking parts of this guy's normal artistic style and taking them out of the context of his body of work. Example:

The lips are what they're focusing on and they're basically identical in style across all his work.
why is political cartoon, as a genre, so ugly
The point is to give the common man the ability to poke fun at the powerful. It's a place to safely mock public figures, or at least it was.
Banning this man is completely egregious and indefensible. Raw naked censorship and abuse of power. Absolutely no way to justify this under Terms of Service violations.
@Poppy Rider given that leftists are gloating, i can only assume he was mass flagged
I think he walked away.
