New literal kangaroo court image

Latest comment: 6 months ago6 comments4 people in discussion

That's pretty funny, but I'm not sure if it's exactly encyclopedia appropriate. ~2025-36153-73 (talk) 18:46, 24 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

Only semi-relevant but the image shows wallabies not kangaroos SewerageRodent (talk) 02:49, 26 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

Why do you think it is inappropriate? Zacwill (talk) 13:38, 26 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

It's misleading. Kangaroo court doesn't literally mean a court made up of kangaroos. The insertion of this image trivializes the term. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 15:17, 2 December 2025 (UTC)Reply

Is it also "trivializing" to include a literal elephant in a room at elephant in the room, or a literal paper tiger at paper tiger? Zacwill (talk) 01:50, 3 December 2025 (UTC)Reply

These examples did occur, and not a mosaic of cutouts from art & craft class. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 05:44, 3 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
