For Nietzsche our ideas of 'good' have origins in class and caste distinctions. Something to keep in mind while you work to keep charname on the 'noble' path.
Err. That drawing looks like a Jewish caricature. I'd be happier if you replaced it with Mr. Burns or the hand wringing kid meme. That way you'd still make your point without using something that promotes stereotypes.
And, to be clear, I think you only meant to post a hand wringing photo.
@killerrabbit: That's the joke. Made me smile, to be honest.
Although I understand that the image itself was originally created by an actual anti-Semite, not some guy parodying anti-Semitism (like Sacha Baron Cohen does). But I think in most cases people post that online to poke fun at anti-Semites for being paranoid and racist, not poke fun at Jews for the super secret global conspiracy.
Just relax, don't take the joke seriously, and remember: you didn't hear anything about a conspiracy.
Interesting. I hadn't realized that 'evil jew' was a meme and I assumed iKreventko had just googled "hand wringing" and pulled this one up.
Having now looked at lots of these memes I get 'the joke', I see the irony, the subversive intent, the judo move of at all . . .
And still I think the same thing I think about Baron Cohen: sometimes irony transforms into something else. The Victorian facial hair was once 'ironic' and is now a trend; sometimes irony subverts and sometimes promotes stereotypes.
Thanks @semiticgod for explaining without initiating a smack down

I think that at least some of the time the trends change when people stop letting others define what annoys them. It is usually someone who is like "You may intend that [comment/trend/action] to be insulting, but if I embrace it, you lose your power over me."
In Dutch 'klasse' is a compliment or a way of say something is good. Not used very often though.
Same option is in the German language but "Na Klasse" can as sarcastic or ironic compliment, for break something or makes someone for somewhat mistakes.

A "classy hotel" is a "Hotel de classe" , for example.

however with proper words it can describe good meaning like, 고급(high or good quality/class).

And I agree with killerrabbit, the cartoon is an eerie stereotype you had best remove.
