"I want to live a safe and clean life, eat gourmet food, go out, wear pretty things, and live a luxurious life… all at the expense of someone else," reads the text on the illustration above. "I have an idea. I'll become a refugee."

The image and caption were posted by a right-wing Japanese artist last month. Now, more than 10,000 people have signed a Change.org petition in Japanese urging Facebook to take it down. The petition, posted by an account calling itself the "Don't Allow Racism Group", claims that several people have reported the illustration and demands that "Facebook must recognize an illustration insulting Syrian refugees as racism."

Although the Japan Times reported that Facebook did not take the picture down, saying it did not go against community guidelines, the artist herself removed the picture. But she remains defiant about her motivations for posting it in the first place. Toshiko Hasumi told BBC Trending that she believed the people signing the petition were left-wing activists. "I draw many political mangas [Japanese comics] which are not favourable to them," she said. "This is why they targeted me." more

It's true that with the current invasion of Syrian refugees even here in the Big T, tension might arise....
Can also understand that some people want to help them anyway...



Wait...


Nevermind...


Wonder if they are making these bullshit to pretend they are to be relevant (english motherfucker, do you speak it)... Because as of today, they are more involved in Volkswagen dieselgate scandal than anything syrian...
And I'm even sure VW sell diesel cars in japan...

Well if you agree that the current refugee crisis is the result of the regional instability caused by the US invasion of Iraq, you could argue that Japan has a duty to take people in as a member of the coalition of the willing.

What this bit of graphic design tells me - as if I didn't know it already - is that right wingers are downright nasty small minded people who lack a moral compass.

And in japan like to take on inexistant threats for easier victories and less risks...

Yes!!!

But I still do not see many ending up in Japan. Or in the U.S.A., for that matters.

Pretty much...and even admits so:

But despite removing the photo, Toshiko was unapologetic creating it: "I don't want European nations to be victimised and hard working people should not suffer by those fake immigrants," she told Trending. She admitted trying to be provocative by using an image of a young girl.
"The simple reason I used a girl is, if I drew an old man it wouldn't have gained attention," Toshiko said. "I am not denying that there are real miserable refugees. I am just denying those 'fake refugees' pretending like victims who are acting for their own benefit by exploiting the media attention on the real poor refugees."

This "fake artist" is victimizing real artists...

[Grumpy Gramps]

To take in ~25 million refugees would be a simple measure to counteract the decline in J-population. Could build a city for them; lots of new porkbarrel-arrows in Abe's nomics

Holy shit, those chimps sucks even at racism...

And a new island is already being prepared for them...

[matsuki]

Why bother with a new island when you have Tottori-ken?

How dare you suggest that.

Tottori is less than a 3-hour drive from me.

Not in my back yard!!!

I guess the flip side is you can bring back the colonial system? Watching Japan attempt that in 2015 is bound to be endless hilarity.

[Grumpy Gramps]

Mmmmhhh I can already smell all these wonderful middle-eastern foods, herbs and spices. Beats the usual Japanese shoyu-on-poop every time

Aren't those foods against the Japanese law?

Using a little girl to be provocative? Or any child?
And in the Age of the Internet an illustration based on (ripped off from) a photo of an actual child?

This is just fucked. Serious asshole territory. And an asshole trying to defend their assholery with weaseling logic makes it even more disgusting.

If anyone cares to dig up pics of her, I'll take a good crack at "political art"

Is this page or this page related to her?

[matsuki]

[Russell]

How do you know it is her?

And,

How do you know it is a her?

[matsuki]

Not 100% sure but this one has tons of nationalist shots on her FB...and yeah, it's a total PAT

[Takechanpoo]

whats the problem of this cartoon? dont you guys know satire? huh? heh?
its a true that most of those "refugees" are ordinary economic immigrants disguising refugees.
"benevolent" leftwingers always argue anything based on emotion and personal experiences. or cannot sufficiently distinguish between emotion and reason or between personal and public.
and they are easily tricked by the "pitiful" poses.

Ahh, the Canadian Journalist ploy.
When you start to take heat for your extremist views, that is the first time you call it satire and mock those who call you out.

[Wage Slave]

Tacky, the fact that you can't see anything wrong with that "cartoon" speaks volumes about your own nastiness, small mindedness and lack of moral compass. If nothing else I thought you right wing types accused Korea of taking other people's work, changing it a little bit and then using it for selfish purposes all the while claiming ownership. That's exactly what this "artist" did.

And,

That's the same one you linked to.

Sorry Take-chan, this is not satire.

1) It's an outright attempt to portray refugees as evil.
2) Using a little girl for that purpose is twisted and disgusting.

And that's just the beginning of a substantial list of things that are wrong with this "cartoon".

OK, I don't have a fb account, so I only saw her top pic, which shows her in the best light, as far as there is light...
