Yeah, some of these are light-hearted, but some others are actually offensive.

i mean they also did imperial japan for china, the dutch for indonesia, etc
i think the point is to be an asshole thing to do, hence 'piss off'
not that i think its great, i think its pretty distasteful humor in the congo and china but just explaining its not just the congo

As a Swedish person, the Sweden one can only be the work of an alt-right nutjob.
Edit: typo.

I love that the worst insult they could come up with for Canada is basically "poutine sucks".
Actually, now that I think about it, them's fightin' words! Grab your hockey and lacrosse sticks everyone, and let's take those hosers down! I mean, you know, if they're okay with it....

It's a bit offensive to say the least~
Beef in India, Polish participitation in the Holocaust, Isis in Sweden, Leopold in the Congo, 9/11 in the US, etc.

Yes, but it's offensive to everybody. Therefore I see there not a huge problem.

I mean, it was clearly made without much thought and thus has varying levels of offense, when you compare putting 9/11 on the US to putting the EU flag on Britain at least. I should probably have thought this through before reposting it here cause some of those run so deep it really does makes me look like an asshole.

Happens fam, I can see the humor of it, but just a mediocre kinda offensive joke as far as I'm concerned. Thus we move on and aim for spicier image macros.

Nah, I wouldn't see this too critically. I don't think that you look like an asshole for reposting it. People should stop to be so thin-skinned. I see there nothing wrong, it's just a joke.

There are fifty people in a room
Some of them have suffered terribly for as long as anybody can remember and have just a hundred dollars to their name, some of them live lavishly have a hundred million dollars.
you take one hundred dollars from everybody, and remind them of the way that life has always been for them
Therefore I see there not a huge problem.

Well, I don't understand how your reply is related to my comment. What is so wrong about, that I don't feel insulted about this picture? I just don't care.

Having Leopold for Congo is just an asshole thing to do. Not sure why this is worth showing here.
