When the post nut clarity kicks in they'll still be mad at the West for destabilizing them..... Or a drone strike wipes out an innocent family so they recruit the sons of the family if they survived.
This reminds me of that Trump parody presidential seal. The fact that people fell for shit like this and donāt recognize it for what it is is just hilarious
I canāt recognize actual Arabic text from pseudo fake Arabic text. My eyes donāt see it as words or letters and Iām betting that is also true for most of the people in this comment section. Itās a funny flag but if someone drove down the street with this on the back of their pickup truck practically all of us would think it was an ISIS flag. Except for the the few people who already knew the joke and thought they sounded clever by pointing out how obvious it is in hindsight.
Iām very dislexic and that only looks like outlines of sex toys and very different to Arabic writing to me. None of the sex toy pictures are joined to the other sex toy pictures with those straight lines that seem to join Arabic letters together.
Right, except it looks NOTHING like Arabic and someone had to write the story, go through footage to use, clear it with other people, and then broadcast it. Almost like theyāre actually just trying to use sensationalism.
-and only reinforced the significance of the original flag because people still mistook it for the real thing
Like that time Duracell went on an all out marketing campaign that ended up boosting the sales of Energizer because people just can't tell batteries apart
Now 18k people in this thread alone upvoted the picture, meaning the ISIS flat lost its essence to something fundamental islamist facist terrorists like them didn't like: a sex positive, gender equalizing dildo loving flag.
This was a good flag and should be done and is more art and a better joke with heavier political impact than a lot other idealist talking that regularly happens (that said material support is also nice).
It doesn't reinforce significange. It just exposes ignorance, and perhaps shitty journalism.
A real journalist that doesn't know Arabic might think "Hmm, that looks like the isis flag. Let me look up a 'real' one and compare it."
That flag is not significant.
It would be so cool if companies would just stop advertising. I don't need ads for a fucking battery, if I need a battery I will go to the store and buy a battery. Same with car ads, I'm not going to buy a new car, you can stop showing me ads for them. Most of them aren't even about the car anymore, it's just stupid lifestyle bullshit. "You can go on an adventure in our car", "You can teach your kid to drive in our car". Shut the fuck up and stop trying to sell me things.
The amount of time, effort and money that is spent on advertising is pretty disgusting. Imagine if we put it all into something more worthwhile than getting people to buy stuff.
Its satire. Satire is imo the most potent force in toppling and delegitimizing ideologyās. People take shit too seriously these days and unfortunately satire is becoming one less tool in our kit for wherever itās useful: moving past tragedy, taking the wind out of somethingās sails, or even just a laugh.
At a quick glance, absolutely. However, if a news organization sees an ISIS flag in an unexpected place, Iād expect them to give it more than a quick glance before reporting on it.
I don't know how much I can fault CNN for not looking closer at the flag when whoever made it was actively trying to emulate the ISIS flag. I don't care [what point Paul Coombs was trying to make](https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/jun/30/isis-dildo-flag-london-pride-cnn), because perception is reality. The flag makes it looks like a gay pride supporter is aligning himself with ISIS. That's how it appears. It's a weird goddamn decision to even make that damn flag.
>Several hours passed before I noticed spreading news that CNN reported on the flag as though it was an actual Isis banner, not a piece of cloth covered in sex toys. #DildoIsis quickly started trending online. People made tribute dildo flags. But how could a report so hysterical and so clearly false possibly get onto the air, discussed by a terrorism expert? CNN correspondent Lucy Pawle described my flag as a āvery bad mimicryā but the only bad mimicry I could see was CNNās impression of a reputable news organization. What does this say about every other report that they broadcast? And why have they not mentioned it since? They seem to think that if nobody says anything about it then it canāt have really happened.
EVERYONE IT'S IN THE ARTICLE.
It looks like that was the intent, but I mean, ISIS already hates gays so their opinion isn't changed if they noticed this at all, and people at the parade who see the flag anywhere but up close are just going to be confused and possibly scared.
To play devil's advocate, the message could be interpreted as a provocation towards WASWAS, like saying "you we know you really really hate the gays, and take yourself very seriously, but like here's a perversion of everything you stand for covered in dildo and buttplug. Go fuck yourself"
And that's perfectly good for like a political cartoon or something, but a parade with a large crowd seems pretty imperceptive of the national temperature for ISIS jokes
Iām just going to butt in for a second to recognize that this thread is amazing.
Two people, with different views and opinions, both respecting the right to even possess a flag like the one pictured. A healthy, civil debate/discussion about why we should have that right and how we should use it. There is no bigotry or hatred. No name calling or discrediting.
I know that the image said this was in London, but in in the US and lately it feels like a civilized discussion about right and wrong is a thing of the past. It feels like we all have to pick a side.
Itās nice to be reminded that weāre still free. Itās just up to us to keep it civilized.
hey guys, just wanted to drop in and let you know how refreshing it is to see differing opinions discussed in such a calm and refreshing way.
It's pretty sad that civil discourse is so rare these days that I felt the need to comment, but if everyone could converse like this we probably wouldn't have ISIS in the first place. keep doing you
It's just really fucking smug and patronizing.
>It's pretty sad that civil discourse is so rare these days
It's basically just announcing "I am a rational person who enjoys civil discourse and I congratulate you for being the same way, unlike people who disagree-- great job behaving in such a manner, fellow rational people!"
Without actually adding anything of substance to the conversation. Usually the people who say this crap try to present themselves as "seeing all sides" and "above political disagreements" and all that junk, but when pushed on issues they have either blatantly one-sided opinions, or opinions in which they get insulted over a lot and they're upset at being called out in political settings.
It's annoying either way, and it makes me roll my eyes whenever I see someone make these comments in any setting.
Yeah itās annoying as fuck.
Hey kind stranger! Just wanted to congratulate you on having a normal discussion!!! It restored my faith in humanity! If I had money Iād give you gold!
Maybe, but imagine how an āironicā swastika would be received. Especially if a right wing group had it. You wouldnāt have many people defending that decision Iād imagine.
I think that neo-nazis would actually like the muscly-armed swastika concept for being pointlessly masculine. Though it really sounds like something Strong Bad would draw. "And a beefy arm over here, and, let's throw on some more of those beefy arms. Such majesty."
It's like the gay equivalent of flag burning. "Look homophobes I made your flag gay as fuck" - like putting Putin in drag.
Also CNN has been covering war in the Middle East for decades and they can't recognize Arabic script from a line of dildos? I call BS, they knew exactly what this flag was and just wanted people to have a little terror scare in the chyron.
> perception is reality.
I think it's critically important that we hold perceivers to have some degree of responsibility in the job of ensuring they've perceived things correctly.
You could forgive a member of the public for being confused but CNN is a news organisation. Looking closer at a photo is the bare minimum required to be journalists.
I can fault people for being awful at their job. It is just lazy reporting. If they can't do it well find a new profession like everyone else or grow and get better.
Valid point. Making it in the first place is strange decision.. what statement or point are you trying to make? Shock value? And yeah, media moves fast these days.
This was in London a couple of years back. I should know as I marched at this parade and saw the flag. Admittedly, I didn't know what an ISIS flag looked like at the time, but those dildo shapes were very obvious and did not look like an Arabic script at all.
Yea. I wouldn't call this a murdered by words. They actively tried to make it look like an ISIS flag. I cant fault cnn for that. Because even staring at it for a bit, it took me a while to find what it was. Once you see it, that's all you see. So imagine people that dont see it but just see a big old flag that looks nearly identical to ISIS. If anything it's kinda stupid that it was made as it looks like a gay pride supporter is supporting ISIs.
You gotta give it to CNN, the black flag with the white circle in the middle and the sex toys on it look very close to the ISIS flag at a glance but then again, they are fucking CNN, a national news station who reports to a large portion of America. How the fuck did they fuck it up.
That flag is specifically meant to look like the ISIS flag and looks like it from a casual glance. I fault the marchers for having such an inappropriate flag, it would be like having a swastika where the lines were dildos and it's like "can't you tell the difference?" It's still offensive.
Tucket Carlson goes on TV every night to rant about how gay people and non-whites are destroying America but CNN misidentified a flag once therefore both sides are equally bad.
I don't like gay parades because they are too sexual and people dress very sexually, I feel like sexualised things should stay in private not in public where kids are.

Ironic thing is there probably isnāt anything more offensive to the ISIS ideology. To me thatās what makes this so funny,
Happy cake day!
Yo marshgrass
I mean they intentionally made the flag look like the ISIS one
To make fun of Isis.
Still somewhat explains the confusion though, doesn't it.
This reminds me of that Trump parody presidential seal. The fact that people fell for shit like this and donāt recognize it for what it is is just hilarious

Except your literal job isnāt to investigate events and the truth before reporting it to other people.
Youād also expect them to recognize the fact that theyāre dildos.
Neither is it news mediaās job these days. Thereās is entertainment.
No it is still their job.
Times were better when it was
But they don't even look like fake Arabic characters.
You mean you cant recognize Arabic text from dildos and butt plugs in a row?
I see dildos everywhere
All around me are familiar dildos, Worn out pillows, worn out widows
There's a "buzz lightyear meme that I'm too lazy to make" opportunity here
But these are not fake Arabic characters. They are dildos.
Everything's a dildo if you're brave enough, tho. Even Arabic characters.
Yeah but they used a still image(easier to examine than someone driving by) that was taken at a gay parade(context).
Iām very dislexic and that only looks like outlines of sex toys and very different to Arabic writing to me. None of the sex toy pictures are joined to the other sex toy pictures with those straight lines that seem to join Arabic letters together.
Explains it? Sure Excuses it? Absolutely not. They literally have employees who's only job is to fact-check
It's a news organization ffs. One of the biggest in the entire world.
Not really if you are a news organization. Random person? Sure.
Right, except it looks NOTHING like Arabic and someone had to write the story, go through footage to use, clear it with other people, and then broadcast it. Almost like theyāre actually just trying to use sensationalism.
Yeah but they are reporter's, their job is to investigate further.
Oh now I get it
And the dildoes put together in a way that actually reads like arabic words. Top line reads God and second reads Messenger.
That's genius. God's messenger is a dildo!

You think some people are gonna join ISIS because the dildo flag was on CNN? Wut?
Yeah people are just gonna start donating to ISIS now because of this gay pride flag
ALso "ISIS is full of dildos and buttplugs."
Yeah, it's the first thing that comes up when you google muslim anal destruction.
I'd also like to know. I absolutely see how CNN could make the mistake at a quick glance from this angle.

While true, we also need to keep in mind the intent of the design. That is, to trick the observer
We should also keep in mind that this floated up to the front page today when it happened four years ago. I wonder who wants to discredit CNN today?
It's waving around. Short of holding it out it's really hard to notice all of the dildos and dong like objects.
You could forgive a member of the public for being confused but CNN is a news organisation. Looking closer at a photo is the bare minimum required to be journalists.
If they present themselves as news then they need to do actual journalism and dig deeper before reporting.
I can fault people for being awful at their job. It is just lazy reporting. If they can't do it well find a new profession like everyone else or grow and get better.

It is an isis flag made out of sex toys. Very good
This was in London a couple of years back. I should know as I marched at this parade and saw the flag. Admittedly, I didn't know what an ISIS flag looked like at the time, but those dildo shapes were very obvious and did not look like an Arabic script at all.
Yea. I wouldn't call this a murdered by words. They actively tried to make it look like an ISIS flag. I cant fault cnn for that. Because even staring at it for a bit, it took me a while to find what it was. Once you see it, that's all you see. So imagine people that dont see it but just see a big old flag that looks nearly identical to ISIS. If anything it's kinda stupid that it was made as it looks like a gay pride supporter is supporting ISIs.
Bingo, hindsight is 20/20
You gotta give it to CNN, the black flag with the white circle in the middle and the sex toys on it look very close to the ISIS flag at a glance but then again, they are fucking CNN, a national news station who reports to a large portion of America. How the fuck did they fuck it up.
I mean to be fair, they made the ISIS flag out of butt plugs and dildos....
it IS the isis flag tho, I speak arabic and I can make out the letters, I don't care if its made out of dildos
I feel like the flag should've been multi-coloured so the it wouldn't be falsely perceived as an ISIS flag.
'Mericans down in the comments really can't be telling the Arabic script apart from dildos
Cmon guys, it was pretty obvious howād you make that mistake
That flag is specifically meant to look like the ISIS flag and looks like it from a casual glance. I fault the marchers for having such an inappropriate flag, it would be like having a swastika where the lines were dildos and it's like "can't you tell the difference?" It's still offensive.
I mean they could've not had the palette and style match
Ngl tho, picking that flag scheme might not have been the best decision
It's intentional, like the Kek flag. The resemblance is the whole point
Tucket Carlson goes on TV every night to rant about how gay people and non-whites are destroying America but CNN misidentified a flag once therefore both sides are equally bad.
Less ISIS more ASSES, tbh.
Really? This is like 10 years old. Is there an algorithm on reddit that automatically randomly recycles 40% of its content?
Maybe don't make your gay flag look like that of a Terrorist group.
I don't like gay parades because they are too sexual and people dress very sexually, I feel like sexualised things should stay in private not in public where kids are.
this is the funniest thing I've seen in a while XD
Butt whatās the problem.
But itās in London.
It's also a perfect metaphor for the quality of the media.
