Müssen tu ich nicht, aber wollen. Warum sollte ich wegschauen? Und solange ihr es bewundert, solange werde ich immer wieder dagegen sprechen. Warum auch nicht. Ich bin erwachsen und dies hier ist das Internet.
Geh ich euch auf die Eier? Gut. Bei manchen ist es der kürzeste Weg zum verstand. So einfach ist das. Warum sollten für mich nicht die selben rechte gelten. Oder für euch? Ihr seid doch auch erwachsen . Und im Internet? Warum hört ihr also nicht auf Propaganda zu bewundern und zu teilen? Warum postet ihr nicht das Video von Tint. Es ist wesentlich anspruchsvoller und bewundernswerter.

It seems that you are the only one getting pissed off and upset about it. Yes MAYBE it was propaganda, but everyone has a different opinion about it. And it seems that you are the only one that sees it that way, which is unfortunate. This thread discussion was pure and simple ONLY about the slinging style, which most of us LIKE to see other cultures use of the sling, and the diffrent styles used. . You need to chill.

Jaegoor, there may be an issue of translation, but I’m not sure what the problem is. What is the propaganda? The video itself? The act of using a sling?
More importantly, why should we care? It’s an interesting video.

Well Hirtius, if you ever get bored of your day job I'd say you have a real shot at being a psychic.

Ein Erwachsener würde einen Unterschied erkennen.
Bin ich der einzige? Unter euch vielleicht.
Slinging org. Möchte international das slingen repräsentieren. Dafür ist ein Propaganda Image natürlich besonders wichtig. Der letzte Satz war reine Ironie.
Nein. Es wäre wichtig, sich davon zu distanzieren.

Shared confusion transcends all barriers.
Speaking of which… Jaegoor, I think something was lost in translation. You didn’t clarify what you were saying.
If you’re worried about the reputation of the sling when used by protestors… most people still don’t know what slings are. The slings don’t do much harm since they aren’t experienced slingers, they’re using them as more of a statement. They’re going for the David and Goliath imagery. The only damage to the reputation of slings has been in Israel itself, but that’s more of targeting the protesters instead of the weapon itself.

Trajan's column is also propaganda, the video from the Spanish Civil war slingers throwing grenades have not been an issue and there have been no problems discussing it previously. Surely in representing the sling internationally it is possible to discuss all representations of the sling impartially. From the outset, this discussion was flagged as apolitical. We can point to Tint's video, but that was someone experimenting with different throws in a gym. It's very different to see this unusual style being used "in the wild" and so is of some note and is interesting to discuss. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this post.

Verharmlosung ist ebenfalls ein Ziel von diesem Video. Alles nicht so schlimm. Schade das sie es nicht verstehen wollen. Oder können. Es gibt auch einen Unterschied zwischen Dokumentation und Propaganda. Auch reflektierte Geschichte ist etwas anderes. Zur damaligen Zeit war es Propaganda. Römer waren Meister darin. Sehr gut erkannt. Heute macht es natürlich gar keinen Unterschied. Oh man. Luis trainiert auch in einem Fitness Studio. Gerade weil es Tint in einen sportlichen Kontext setzt, ist sein Video um ein Vielfaches besser. Es geht auch nicht um meine Argumente. Diese interessieren sie gar nicht. Es geht um meine Person. Und ich bin nun mal ein Arsch. Mehr wollen sie sie nicht wissen.
ich nenne es armselig.

calling your behavior childish isn't wrong. Speaking the truth isn't a bad thing to do
