- Cartoon of Serena. A few tweaks and it'd have been less offensive. Art Director should have asked illustrator to not exaggerate her lips. Then all ok.shapesalad
- You forgot to mention that it's a caricature and by definition the features should be exaggerated..and that is the crux of the debate.Morning_star
- Cannot satirise minorities because racismset
- OK, thanks! haha! let's not have 166 sidenotes explaining the other 166 sidenotes/ LOLKrassy

- Free speech, motherfucker. I'm not telling black folks, I'm telling everyone. This is only racist if you decide it's racist.set

- Yes. Get hooked on phonics.soundofreason

- wog - Australia has a huge problem with racism. I've been several times - Seen indian's refered to as P word, Lebanese called "lebbos"necromation
- She has big lips and curly black hair. So those features are accentuated. How the utter shiny fuck is that racist?set

- ... My girlfriend herself says racisms is pretty bad as whole and with that as the undertone of the nation its pretty easy for this stuff to get through...necromation
- cause this doesn't even look like her or what a caricature of her would actually look like. it's just a stereotyped general portrait of black people.oey

- @oey
Please tell us more about those details.soundofreason - I would bet money... No artist here or in the US would have released that cartoon!necromation

- besides, it's also easy for someone on the privileged side of history/society not to see it as racist as we don't have any clue what is being victim of racism.oey
- The P word is a completely different thing in AU. It doesn't have the british racist weight behind it until recently.thumb_screws
- @set
The only way to solve this is to photoshop your face onto it.soundofreason - it's not about big lips being beautiful or not. you are totally missing the point set.oey
- Australians are pretty naive when it comes to racism. A lot of the time they just dont understand the weight of the terms or where they originated from.thumb_screws
- But black people do generally have big lips. Is that racist to point out a fact? One that isn't even derogatory?set
- Caricatures accentuate features. That's the point you seem to be missing. You're choosing for it to be racist when it doesn't need to be anything of the sort.set
- @oey
I would like to see the details you mentioned exposed and this image dissected in a separate post.
Who's up for it?soundofreason - First time I've been dragged into a qbn 'debate' in a while. It's fruitless. Carry on being offended if you like, you're only hurting yourself, ultimately.set
- What you're saying is that a caricature artist can only take the piss out of someone's features if they're not a minority. That's ludicrous.set
- hey set, i don't feel offended, i just disagree with you still i totally understand what you mean about caricatures. and how am I hurting myself?oey
- If anything, the ones saying this is racist are the ones being racist, as you're suggesting she should be treated differently because of her race. Av summathatset
- and why has he whitewashed Naomi? to emphasize the stereotype of black people being too emotional? just asking...oey
- the "coon" cartoon ya know?oey
- Caricatures accentuate features, but surely at some point it crosses the line into racism right?yuekit
- So many caricatures of white mean make their noses really big - as a white man, I don't give a fuck, I know we have big noses.shapesalad
- so I expect a black person to equally see that yeah, on average they have big lips and in a caricature that might be accented. Try not to give a fuck and deal.shapesalad
- *white menshapesalad
- The hypocrisy of this whole thing is humorous to me. Here's an example, our darling KJ Rowling... The cartoon is entirely left open to interpretation...set
- i.e. old Tintin comics like Nairn mentioned above. So it comes down to the depiction, and this is definitely borderline.yuekit
- ... so the only one reducing Serena to racist and sexist tropes is JK herself. https://twitter.com/…set
- it's not racist to caricature a black woman AND it's legitimate to question why this pic was drawn as it is. Nobody is going to 'win' this argumentFax_Benson
- I do understand the racism thing, if you absoloutely must fish for it, but where is she finding sexism in this? That's quite impressive.set
- I was about to ask about sexism too, now that it has been established that the cartoon is racist.soundofreason

As a recent convert into seeing the cartoon as racist could you make a post explaining it in detail for those still on the fence?soundofreason - Would you guys agree that this is racist?

- I think the racist part is where he invented the white blonde opponent, setting up a fake conflict between white and black. The lips are just bad art.zarkonite
- Did a single person in this 170 note comments thread actually say you can't caricature black people?yuekit
- Just don't do it in a way that large numbers of people (including blacks themselves) find offensive. After all maybe they have a point.yuekit
- @ yuekit as far as i know nobody wrote that. some people have the Trump Syndrome...inventing facts, distorting words...LOL!oey
- and yes you can caricature black people, minorities, whatever. the thing is how to do it and not to fall in racial stereotyping.oey
- in before 200?imbecile
- Absolutely NOTHING racist about this cartoon. Period. Move on.chukkaphob
- Anyone who has issues with it is the racist insulting the black community - insinuating their appearance deserves special treatment.hotroddy
- ^ this.chukkaphob
- TLDR. Here's another note!sarahfailin
- Has anyone asked Serena how she feels about this cartoon??Ramanisky2
- Didn't hear the "racism" calls for this one despite the fact he's ethnic. https://i.imgur.com/…BusterBoy
- White men have been depicted in cartoons here in Oz with tiny cocks. A caricature exaggerates every physical feature...anyone who takes offence has issues.BusterBoy
- dude. you asked me if i think it's racist. then you guys get riled up by my opinion. why did you even bother asking.pango
- ^oey
- Let’s all ask Serena what she thinks.Ramanisky2
- First thing I thought of is that it looked like a mad native from a bugs bunny cartoon, even looks like she has a bone or a spike through her nose, so yeah_niko
- ...Artist could be a total dickhead, or just a shitty caricaturist._niko
- I'm not riled up by anyone's opinion. Feel free to think whatever the fuck you want! Doesn't preclude me from having an opinion though.BusterBoy
- I think it's fine.
Shrug.docpoz - Maybe should have made the blonde girl blacker.docpoz
- Is it PC? No.
It's baby shaming.docpoz - Waiting for the revised version of this drawing that can't be interpreted negatively, yet still communicates the same idea.ShenanigansTV
- Perhaps if there were no lips, cause lips are a trigger.ShenanigansTV
- Serena has big lips thodocpoz

QBN stickers
I've been on the Nevada 375 a few times in the last couple years and always stop and look for QBN stickers (and ALWAYS FORGET TO BRING SOME)...
The Extra Terrestrial Highway signs need our love! I hope one of you beat me to it. :)
- Given they appear to be vinyl, I'd hope not, because when it inevitably peels away it'll just become another bit of non-biodegradable trash in your desertNairn
- I could cut you a wee QBN stencil which you could use to paint through with some biodegradable paint... heck, wet ochre mud, caveman style, on a rock..Nairn
- oh quit your whining... the aliens will take care of any and all detritus that invades their roadwayPonyBoy
- ... actually... a stenciled QBN logo could be kinda dopePonyBoy
- Next to buddy Christ please. I'll do this to stone henge if someone does this please ;-)mugwart

- which roles are supposed to be played? which place each is supposed to occupy? the structures of a marriage?oey
- and even if they're brothers, wouldn't it be the same stereotype that's suppose to be perpetuated? unless he's a friend you drops by for a visit...oey
- ...she's still showing her housekeeping skills like it's supposed to be the role of a woman. a good woman. so I have to ask you again, seriously now?oey
- I don't intend to start a debate. I joked with the fact that it's the same as usual and that's "what's wrong with this picture?"oey
- for me it's picturing something that I don't stand for. if the question would be "what's wrong in this picture?" maybe I wouldn't have thought about it so much.oey
- and sorry if i "sound" moral, it's actually not my intention. just explaining myself.oey
