The Political Satire/Meme Thread

Forgive me for not seeing the satirical side of comparing a government and/or leader that is actively taking measures to protect its citizens (popularity of such measures are a different topic) to a government and/or leader that is responsible for and actively engaging in the wanton suffering, death and human rights violations of their people.

You know, I don't think anyone even so much as mentioned the forty to fifty million people exterminated by Genghis Khan and his Mongols, even though they've been under our nose the entire time. YeR alL sCUmMy ScUMbAg sCuM!1!!1!!!. Comic Sans.

It's a big problem, I mean @VBR didn't mention Nazinsky Island, so I can only imagine he somehow supports what took place there...

I say that jokingly, but, with the corners of the internets he's clearly swimming through, it wouldn't surprise me.

Oof, these pictures are so bad, you couldn't karma farm them on Reddit from either side.

That's not the comparison I was making though. If that's the comparison that you want to see, however, then whatever...

This is fun - the part where you try to hide behind double-speak and obfuscated intentions so that you can be a victim. How about you just explain it? Oh wait, that would give up the game and you'd be actually accountable to a view you don't want to defend. Keep hiding.

Because that would entail having an actual conversation rather than a satire of one.

What's the comparison you're trying to make, then? I'd love to know the "proper" way to digest an statement that equates measures to stop a deadly pandemic to actual Communism.

As your GTP sommelier, I can assure you this recent vintage of thread may have some spoiled privilege, attention-seeking aromas, and notes of spam, as evidenced by the process of manure post submission.

Though we're entitled to our opinions, I should also advise it pairs well with doomscrolling social media feeds, but less so for convincing arguments and hearty discussion.

Yawn...

Yawn...

That's about what I expected.

.....

Pretty sure these are reposts (and bad), but I figured I should contribute at least something at this point.

That's funny, I could've sworn it was capitalists claiming Covid casualties were victims of communism, not the other way around.

GTP Red Pill? What in the neck-bearded, misogynistic hell is that about?

Also, COVID isn't the result of economics, it's the result of politicians playing politics and, of course, idiots.

Oh boy, there’s some delicious irony there and you know damn well the user doesn’t see it.

Irony is dead, but I am intrigued as if you managed to put yourself on your own ignore list?

I'll don't think I'll ever understand how "extreme" conservative commentators consistently refuse to acknowledge trans rights while at the same time continually using imagery derived from a movie conceived and directed by two transwomen.

Because that aspect of the Matrix heavily references Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. Lewis Caroll was a nonce. See Matt Gaetz.

So those memes revolve around red Hitler with a Payton Manning fivehead being a good guy? I feel dumber for spending 35 seconds of my lunch break watching some of that.

This thread of late looks like my backyard when it's been a while since I've gone around picking up my dog's number twos.
