Craven-ness Central: Those Who Hate You Laugh At You, Without Humor

Via HotAir comes the news that the dhimmitude is worse than it superficially appears:

We delivered our version of the show to Comedy Central and they made a determination to alter the episode. It wasn’t some meta-joke on our part. Comedy Central added the bleeps. In fact, Kyle’s customary final speech was about intimidation and fear. It didn’t mention Muhammad at all but it got bleeped too.

Our budget is small, and production values low, but this blog has commissioned a piece of art that we call “Piss Polar Prophet Muhammad Manbearpig”, which we will show here in its current ultra-low resolution state between curly braces:

Someone with photoshop chops can improve this image of a jar of bodily waste with a white Al Gore substitute that might represent someone’s favorite religious icon.
This is obviously a riff on the notorious anti-Christian motif of a few years ago.
Not to leave any monotheistic religions untapped, we should revisit a bit of Monty Python from “The Life of Brian”, which is also seen as offensive by some Christians I know:
How, one wonders, can we break the cycle of lameness?
Two of the things I hope to see from RightNetwork when it launches are:

  1. Courage
  2. Even-handedness

We already enjoy PJTV immensely. However, more quality, propaganda-free content is better. We The People need to support quality, reasonable programming and advertisers who support it. Will South Park shed Comedy Central like the POTUS sheds his credibility? I’ll admit that I hadn’t been much of a South Park viewer, but I will support anyone demonstrating courage in the face of cowardice.

Deliberately baiting anyone on any aspect of their religious faith is tastesless and deserves to be ignored. The actions of anyone seeking to privilege their faith through the legal system and threats of violence is an order of magnitude worse and must be opposed systematically.

In a schoolyard setting, attempts to silence others would be called bullying, and not tolerated.

In culture, the stakes are higher, yet public leadership goes for Chamberlainism. Why?

    I cannot get why people can’t take a joke. I think these folks must have sand in their shorts or something.

    Because some of the elites in The West are ashamed of their civilization, the rest just downright hate it [and themselves…and life itself].
