In the middle of last month, Willa Paskin, a blogger on the Slate.com blogs noted a series of German condom ads making their rounds, each featuring a sketch of a sperm made out to look like Adolph Hitler (I kid you not) Osama bin Laden or Mao Zedong, with the message, “Better wrap it up unless you want to bring evil into the world.”
Willa Paskin notes, “It's a dark take on procreation, informed by an everyday awareness that people can go really, really bad. Of course, people can go good as well, and I almost expect to see these images re-purposed for an anti-condom or pro-life campaign, with sperm made to look like Jesus, Abe Lincoln or Martin Luther King Jr.”
I wouldn’t hold my breath for that, but the inanity of an ad like that not only highlights the incredible depth of German-guilt, but the woeful illogic of the Left period.

I wonder what it means when someone sees the flaw in their own reasoning, but promotes it anyway?
ReplyDeleteI think it means such people are morons, Roday.....but that's redundant when speaking of the Left.
ReplyDeleteLets face it. The Left just hates children, unless they're Muslim children toting toy rifles while shouting, "Death to America!"
ReplyDeleteI think the far-Left's innate impulse is always to blame America and "Capitalism" for all the world's ills.
ReplyDeleteWhat few (even those on the far-Left...maybe ESPECIALLY those) understand is that perhaps the most "successful" Leftist ever was Adolph Hitler - a rabid anti-smoking zealot, an animal rights devotee, an ardent environmentalist and a dedicated gun controller....as well as a n ardent anit-capitalist!

A GREAT website!
And I'm not using any hyperbole here, nor deliberately violating "Godwin's law" in correctly asserting that Hitler was a dedicated Leftist.
Hitler's own words bear that out; "We are socialists, we are enemies of today's capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are all determined to destroy this system under all conditions." - (Adolf Hitler)
(Speech of May 1, 1927. Quoted by Toland, 1976, p. 306)
Today's far-Left have more in common with Hitler than they do with even their more embraced heros, Stalin and Mao.
