The comic flippantly disregards Chanel's advice re: accessories based on the premise that because she was a Nazi collaborator her opinions, and those influenced by them, can and should be ignored.

If that is too nuanced for you to be able to determine a stance then there's no hope for you.

i mean, i only kind of like fashion (i just like halloween a little bit a lot too much and also putting outfits together and thrift shopping and going to the discount rack maybe okay) and i've been an art model (not a fashion model except the one time because i'm a teensy bit deformed even though i'm gorgeous), a few of my relatives either are or have been fashion models. also art models. so yeah i'm just now realizing there's charcoals of my bait and tackle and numerous buttholes out there somewhere that's fun. i hope they put them someplace classy, like over the toilet. i just don't know why i didn't bother to keep one for myself. probably the numerous buttholes part. uh i think i might have forgotten one of these thank you damn cat ) anyways my point is this is the first time i heard of Chanel's accessory advice. Now i gotta get me some summer scarves and go all extra thank you for the inspiration my wife will... actually probably kind of like it.

Mao said that I should shit when I need to. Should I now hold my shit in because Mao made crazed mistakes or was emblematic of a movement that was not exactly comfortable to those in the states and most of europe? What a stupid fucking line of reasoning.

If that is too nuanced for you to be able to determine a stance then there’s no hope for you.

Regard the reply to your first paragraph. I made it even more "nuanced", bullshit appeal anyway.

Whether or not you agree with it has nothing to do with the fact that the author's position is pretty clear.

I never said that I agreed or disagreed. How you read any disagreement or agreement into my statement is beyond me and whether or not I agree is not at all a relevant point that needs to be brought up. The author's position is "pretty clear" because the comic is posted in liberal spaces where virtually everyone dislikes Hitler. Social context makes it obvious, but it's not at all strictly obvious from the logic of the joke and hinges mostly on how "you look great" is interpreted. I point that out and people lose their shit because they interpret messages anywhich way they feel is comfortable and when they're not able to categorise a statement, potentially because it is rather neutral but contains structured statements in regards to the content of the post, it just makes it seem hostile to them when it's not in its content.

Damn. Here I was taking you seriously and you go and drop the suggestion that disliking Hitler is an uncertain foundation for discussion and social context.

Have a good one.
