Surely the imperialism becomes obvious to everyone when they spell it out in their private conversations, right?

My mom used to say there's always a creepy person on every bus

[purple is now on the bus, looking smug and proud, holding a bar]
Well, I take the bus every day
And I've never seen them

[behind purple, a crowd of diverse characters are all reacting in various ways while looking at purple, most of them are cringing or disgusted]

[yellow, happily]
I want to BELIEVE

[blue, suspicious]
To believe in what?
Aliens and stuff?

[zoom on yellow's face, smiling, looking nasty]
That my government is right about murdering all those people

Today I felt like balancing out the bad vibes of my usual stuff with something positive for a change.

Have a beautiful day.

[a yellow character waves at us]
Hi, welcome to my show!
On today's episode, we will be interviewing John Racist, a notorious racist

[sitting at a desk, speaking into a mic, a smug and stupid looking orange character wearing a backwards cap grins smugly]
Something racist
PS: Yea, I'm racist

[yellow, speaking into their own mic, is SHOCKED at what they just heard]
Wow I can't believe you just said that

[the newscaster is back to the full face inhuman smile, standing next to a chart that shows a BALANCE between TRUTH and FEELINGS]
As always, we at NEUTRAL NEWS aim to meet in the middle

[three identical stern technocrat looking characters in suits are standing at a desk, behind a chart that goes up]
We need to wait for more data before reacting
Let us not get carried away by the emotional responses
It's a very complex topic

[two banners occupy the bottom part of the screen, below the experts]
DEATH COUNT: VERY HIGH AND GOING UP
Our expert panel says: this could mean anything

[in a destroyed city, in front of an explosion, a character wearing a PRESS helmet talks into a mic]
IT'S COMPLETE CHAOS OUT HERE, I HEARD EXPLOSIONS

[below the war reporter, the bottom half of the screen is occupied by two banners]
UNVERIFIED CLAIMS
We remind you that our experts in the studio say this is still a developing, nuanced situation

[split screen, the newscaster is mildly smiling at the war reporter]
Remember to take everything you see with a grain of salt!

Reading it on the website is probably easier.

But here's the images anyway.

[a newscaster sits at their desk, has a gigantic grin on his face, barely looks human]
Good evening, welcome to NEUTRAL NEWS
Your favorite mainstream program that always brings you a balanced perspective
Tonight's top story: Some say a genocide is happening, others say it's a complicated situation

[destroyed buildings, smoke, a crashed car, things look real bleak]
LIVE FROM THE CITY OF GENOCIDEBURG

[split screen, the newscaster continues talking]
A government spokesperson from Genocideland contacted us to clarify that the images you are seeing now might be, I quote, "faked by antigenociders who want us dead"

[in the rubble of a destroyed city, a character looks absolutely desperate, shaking, is screaming]
THEY KILLED MY ENTIRE FAMILY

[split screen, the newscaster smiles smugly]
Thank you for your perspective

[a character in a suit talks, looking very smug]
We reject the premise that there was any killing or destruction

[split screen, the newscaster still smiles smugly]
A bold alternative narrative, worthy of consideration!

@thebad.website

As we are witnessing yet another round of the death spiral of imperialism, I was reminded of Césaire's quote on the domestic consequences of being an imperial power, which sadly aged well.

#quote #drawing #cesaire #imperialism #colonialism #trump #usa

[Aimé Césaire, in his later years, has a serious and slightly sad look on his face]
No one colonizes innocently
Nor does anyone colonize with impunity
A nation that colonizes, that justifies colonization - therefore force - is already a sick civilization, a civilization that is morally diseased, which, irresistibly, from consequence to consequence, from denial to denial, calls forth its own Hitler, that is to say, its punishment. Colonization is the bridgehead of barbarism within a civilization from which, at any moment, the negation of civilization itself may emerge.

"Oh shit, they shot an innocent bystander" -> "Officer feared imminent vehicular bad vibes"

[at a lectern, an orange character grins smugly]
Ladies and gentlemen of the press, I have gathered you here today to inform you that our God loving officer feared imminent vehicular bad vibes from an evil person.
Also videos of the event are fake and don't exist.
And if they do exist, they prove it was self defense.

[blue, annoyed]
I feel betrayed by the current political system!
Let's get rid of it, I want major changes now!

[green]
You naive fool, the only thing we can realistically accomplish is gradual reforms

[blue]
Okay then, I'll vote for you, now please actually do some gradual reforms

[now in a political office, green is sitting behind the desk, dressed in a suit, looking presidential]

[green, smirking smugly while shrugging]
Sorry, best I can do is constantly move to the right to please conservatives, the current political system leaves us no other choice

A quote I like from the Epic of Gilgamesh.

There's not many ancient representations of Siduri.
Hopefully what I drew is not too disgraceful.
