Dictators according to Japan

[Aris Khandr]

I think they're hilarious, except that I don't really get most of the design aspects. Like why is Hitler a painter? It's either a metaphor I don't understand or it's not relevant.

Umm... Hitler was a painter. He even applied (unsuccessfully) to the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. I thought this was pretty common knowledge.

Ok, thanks. It probably is pretty common.

Well that was entertaining.

I kind of chuckled at a lot of them. The Trujillo one made me laugh a bit too, being Dominican.

I can't see how anyone would want to wax their pole for this, but not my business what people find hot. Maybe a cute Hitler is just their thing.

I'm having a hard time taking this seriously at all.

Only an ignorant could refer to Hugo Chavez as a dictator..

As far as i know Hugo Chavez is a dictator, let's see he has took absolute power over venezuela since 1999, he changed laws so he could be re elected more than 2 times and since then he continous to "win" every election... yup he's a dictator .

only the japanese could turn hitler into a demonic little evil painter school girl

Xenophobic, extremely racist culture that was not only an ally of Hitler but also was stiff competition for the Third Reich's kill count of civilians in death camps.

Yea, with that in mind, no surprise that Hitler is viewed as a cute and lovable schoolgirl painter.

Oh come on, you have to be very stiff not to have a good chuckle at the genderbent moe versions of dictators. Doesn't matter what you think of Japan, this is just brilliant...

No. I don't laugh at it. And it's precisely because of what I think of the Japanese.

thats....racist

like my people were enslaved , and the other half of me peoples are being blowed up in the middle east but i dont hate all white people ,

Japanese is a "race"? Here I thought it was a nationality...

Weird...

 

[kortin]

I personally think it's hilarious. At least for the ones I recognized.

 

[itaywex]

ahhhh.... japan.
I don't really think we should take them seriously, japan has many good things (like anime and some video games), you should enjoy what you like and ignore the rest (or your head will explode ^_^).

 

[CleverCover]

It looks....kind of stupid, but whatever floats your boat...

'looks again' Couldn't even make them look recognizable....

I saw this a while ago on Sankaku. I think you shouldn't say "according to Japan". Most Japanese are ashamed of that kind of stuff. It's like if you have extremist groups in America (The KKK) and other countries start saying "Black People Rights according to the United States" it's a gross generalization, overall incredibly dumb and makes for terrible writing.

Otherwise I found it really cute! I'd def. bang Castro and a lot of the other dictators haha.

 

[MrPeanut]

Some of them are kinda cute.

But umm, anyone care to explain what they refer to in Al-Assad and Malawi ( I know the dictators, just not what the pictures refer to).

 

[renegade7]

Well that's....strange...

I mean the drawings aren't bad, it's just a little weird.

Yes, actually. There is in fact a little thing about the Japanse. Mostly, the eyes are slanted. I know, huge difference.

 

[Gordon_4_v1legacy]

Hmmmm, I think Chavez came out on top in this insane contest.

Not gonna lie though, this was kind of funny, but for all the wrong reasons.

 

[Sacman]

I never new Communist Leaders were kinda cute. I knew there was a reason I am a communist

Well, if only you knew how sexy young Stalin was, you would've been communist centuries ago...<.<

In regards to Al-Assad it refers to how he originally graduated as a physician but after his elder brother was killed he became the new successor and ruler of Syria because of his father.

As for Banda he instituted many conservative dress codes including men having to keep their hair and beards short.

 

[sonofliber]

some of them have some clever refernces, tito is the most obvious one pol pot is another, chaves and kim.

also the one of mao is freaking awesome, i dont know but its really well done.


ps: chavez is not a "dictator" in the sense of the word, he just changes the laws and constitution to stay in power, while mantaining the impresion of elections

 

[Karelwolfpup]

If the real Hugo Chavez looked like that, I'd move to Venezuela and marry him XDD

1) He didn't "took" power, he was elected for the charge.

2) Define "absolute power"

3) In order to alter the constitution, it is required a large amount of consensus from both the government, the opposition and the electorate. One doesn't just "change the law" to be elected unlimitedly (even though I oppose to unlimited election of the same candidate anyway)

4) Why the "win" in quotations? many international watchers and third parties affirm that so far all elections have been clean and fair.

 

[Savryc]

Huh, I wasn't aware Japan had a get together and decided that these are the official Japanese representations of dictators. Then again one Japanese bloke could draw a picture of Saddam Hussein dry humping Uncle Sam and there'd be a bunch of "Wahhh Japan hates America" posts.
