@Zezen Why? Ottawahitech (talk) 14:49, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This is not Bill Clinton (unless somebody has his "Lewinsky & cigar" collection pics from Epstein's collection and can compare)
@Ottawahitech - it was over 2 years ago and the entry may have been different, but let me try:
Then the other pic does not show Ms Bee or "racists monsters" either, but rather the "Group of 104 German rocket scientists in 1946, including Wernher von Braun, Ludwig Roth and Arthur Rudolph etc.", unless you deem e.g. Benedict XVI etc. to be a racist monster too.
The "George William Curtis" pic does not show this very pale looking gentleman either, but one needs to click both to check it.
I also had little idea about what that photo of "67º Período de Sesiones de la Asamblea General de Naciones Unidas" building has to do with race (as I did not recognize the building, not iconic enough for me), but after a glance at its program, which shows a prayer break, economy, HIV, Diversidad Biológica, mujeres and some unrelated topics, indeed arriving at the "race" item and then passing on to Palestine and Congo, I guess that is meant.
Imputing "in spite of overwhelming scientific evidence and changing social norms, a relatively large proportion of people still cling to past traditions of white supremacy and racism. ~ Daniel J. Fairbanks" to "The Hebrews" is as weird and creepy as this naked "Bill Clinton", above. We could just as well insert a Pollock painting there, maybe Mural (1943), as it shows colours and was created "in that racist period".
Your take? Zezen (talk) 15:52, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Zezen, Boy you are quick! I did not expect a reply so soon, and not such a comprehensive one :)
I was only engaging in driveby commenting on an old discussion, taken out of context. I thought you meant photos on all articles at WQ, silly me!
The good thing is you are still here. Ottawahitech (talk) 16:14, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
BTW did you see this page starts with this: A race is a competition that measures speed (playing with the Reply button) Ottawahitech (talk) 16:27, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
