Wow! That is so hardcore! Stick it to 'em Latuff!

fan

either the previous commentor was a true master of irony or in need of getting themselves down the national gallery and checking out real comic satire.

This illistration is as always, tiresome.

do people pay money for this, I must really think about going back to art.
1 part racial sterotype
2 parts left wing dogma
and a pinch of no brain insult.

Actually, U.S. Statue of "Liberty" would be more accurate portrayal

Because it is essentially [b]U.S. imposed neo-liberal economics[/b] that have devastated the economy of Greece(and most of the rest of the world) as they are [b]Anglo-Saxon economics[/b]

Oh-oh, am I "racial stereotyping"?

Well, I suppose I am since I'm [b]exposing economic white supremacy[/b]!

STOP ANGLO-SAXON WHITE ECONOMIC SUPREMACY!

i really don't see where the racism comes into it. but also, i think it's a bit shit to blame this stuff on the european union or the united states. greece is a super corrupt county for sure. i've been there many times. the greek upper class's greed and corruption has created this situation and the working class has to pay. that the greek state is in trouble is no big deal, but maybe fair.

I see Latuff now has a cult troll(s) following. What we see here is the same dubious claims made and the same grammatical style, yet this time the troll is pretending he is an artist. Get a life!

Just that the material laws of harmony of the species is determined by the restoration of the matriarchy, and that was destroyed by SEXTUS in B.C. times. With the matriarchy suppressed the economics, culture, politics and religios is out of whack and cannot be restored as EQUALITY, or as the French say egalite'. This is true now throughout the world and notice no one, not even the anarchists are ideologically dealing with this need to double democracy in the world by electing woman equally in all levels, save and except possibly the communist trade unions that push for 'gender parity' at all levels. With the restoration of the matriarchy comes the restoration of the patriarchy. The conquest of woman has thrown thr patriarchy out of ecological balance also. Viva socialist liberation. End polllution wars, before they end the species in a hail of radioactive debris from the Holylands DU bombardment.

Sure Partisans Shot Mussolini, but the matriarchy was never restored.

Since the Roman Empire conquored Greece in B.C. ancient times, no succeeding generation has been concious enough to elect woman equally doubling democracy as all levels, as the ecological balance of the species and the mateirlist return to a fully functioning matriarchy and patriarchy. Half way measures have driven the woment to dysfunctional insanity.

shouldn't it be a piggy draped in a Greek flag smashing a plate in the form of a Euro, while 3 other piggies look on?

Empires have driven women crazy.

Greece has had its matruarchy destroyed by empires ruling for thousands of years in the area. Does anyone think the new millenium would be a good time to see the Sextus era ended, and the full restoration of woman's equality brought back? Seeing that 50-50 electing of women contains the material seed of the species vital livability, and the consequent laws of joy and hamony that is the natural man, woman question. Liberation of Greece and all countries depends on doubling democracy and electing woman equally, so woman can access half the wealth and law making which consequences the end of empire that sources poverty, pollution, aggressive Imperial wars, unemployment, and gender and racist discrimination. Male domination of democracy is not natural full democracy. Bring back the sanity. Viva social liberation. End pollution wars, not endless wars for more pollution.
