It's not liberals, it's just Harry Potter fans. I've worked with HP fangirls who literally compare every single possible thing in human existence to Harry Potter.

Well, at least Voldemort got defeated in the end. But I agree, the comparison is unfair. Voldemort never raped anyone, so Trump is still in a higher league of evil than him.

Calling them refugees implies most of them are fleeing war.

Also, I got these from r/politics.

one of the very pics you posted from your white supremacist meme folder refers to them as 'seeking refuge' so i'm just using your language.

presumably you consider all non-refugee immigrants to be a murderous army of monsters then?

You know that those is supposed to be satire of the leftist media, right? Of course they aren't actually refugees, but people in the media want to characterize them as if they are.

Leftism has clearly rotted the logic centers of your brain away.

Allegories don't need to be 1:1 representations in order to make a point.

Look, if you're unable to understand why a migration of fighting-age males into Europe who immediately become majorly overrepresented in the violent crime statistics might be compared to an invading army, then I can't help you.

See, the operating term there is "comparison". No one is saying the migrants are a literal army, you dunce.

That you don't know how allegories work? I've been saying that from the beginning...

I mean, I posted a satire of the media calling orcs "refugees" and you took that as a statement from myself that I consider them to be refugees. How simple can you get?

why do you keep acting as if saying "it's satire bro!!!" distracts from the central point?

Mal_Fet posted...
I posted a satire of the media calling orcs "refugees"

like here for example you actively say such people are 'orcs' and that somehow your post wasn't racist because it was merely pointing out that the supposed "leftist" (lol!) media calls such people innocent refugees. You posted these with gleeful approval and obviously agree with the core 'joke' of the image that immigrants are actually an army of murderous monsters.

like what exactly is up for debate here?

"hurr it's an allegory bro, despite my obvious approval of the central white supremacist message it is not to be taken literally and in fact means something totally different than how it's presented"

You have to be a really dense or dishonest person to 1) equate criticism of mass migration to white supremacy and 2) assume people literally believe the migrants are roving orcs guided by a malevolent Maia by making such criticisms.

lol now this is good.

first of all, you row completely back from the image in question and say it's "not a 1:1 representation" to cover your own ass.

*now* you go to the complete other extreme and imply that I think you believe that immigrants are "literally" orcs guided by an evil spirit so you can try and make my position look absurd.

this is like a textbook straw man lmfao.

No, I say it's not a 1:1 representation because allegories aren't required to be 1:1 representations.

You know that the X-Men began as an allegory to the plight of African Americans? No, you probably don't, since black people are not in fact genetic mutants who have a proclivity to dressing up in spandex and doing combat with Malcolm X.
