The Political Satire/Meme Thread

[VBR]

Spoiler

If you're fed up with all the nonsense coming from radical feminists these days & would rather listen to a more moderate feminist voice, check out Christina Hoff Summers.




She also fact checks some of the more absurd claims by her radical counterparts, & has become a bit of a Mythbuster.

What better way to enter the 20s with the return of late-night speakeasies!

I have to admit I'm starting to get a good laugh out of the non-meme memes. They're hitting a "so bad it's good" level at this point. Like they couldn't have possibly missed the point more.

Where Trump is concerned, the left-leaning MSM, unfortunately, seems to be most interested in ephemeral hit pieces, character assassination, & Ad Hominems; the story of the day has already been decided & it's 'orange man bad'. To quote journalist David Wright from the video in my last post, "We don't hold him (Trump) to account. We also don't give him credit for the...things he does do". If they quit with all the low-resolution OMB style critiques, that are here one day & gone the next, they could then focus on doing some serious journalism & really take him to task over his more important shortcomings. Also, giving him credit for the things he does get right would show some balance on their part, & would go a long way to curbing the one-sided outrage addict aspects of social media driven MSM narratives that oftentimes result in various levels of TDS in those consuming such material.

That's not how I'd characterise the mass criticism of the President but I think I see your thinking.

I do disagree, I think just listing the President's actions and words every day paints him in a bad light without any spin being necessary.

At this point I'm just happy it's a correctly used meme.

No that's not capitalism. And what is "insurmountably" supposed to mean here?

Another baffling meme from Comic Sans guy btw. What has a self confessed anarchist hacker's quote got to do with Marxism or Mickey?

You mean like how the human body requires constant consumption and wear and tear of its parts to continue functioning?

That web of life? Or a different one?

Do explain how imperialism props up capitalism.

When I was a baby I could survive on a few spoons of mashed up vegetables and some milk.

Now it takes a baby's weight in meat and cheese to fill me up.

 

[Sander 001]

Do explain how imperialism props up capitalism.

With wretched corruption, that's how.

 

[Danoff]

With wretched corruption, that's how.

How does one corrupt capitalism? Give me an example of corruption in capitalism that leads to imperialism propping it up.

Eh, I’d say the Groucho, Harpo, Zeppo, Chico, and Gummo forms of Marxism are more dangerous... because they’re impossible to not love!

And I got their names by memory! Yay me!

Don't blame the system, blame the people who are obsessed with corporate greed.

You really don't understand what capitalism is. People would do lots of bad things to children if they were allowed. They'd do lots of bad things to lots of people if they were allowed. They'd abandon children, refuse to feed them, refuse to educate them, all kinds of horrible stuff.

How about taking a shot at this:

How does one corrupt capitalism? Give me an example of corruption in capitalism that leads to imperialism propping it up.

Child labor isn't exclusive to capitalism, nor is there really anything wrong with the concept in itself. Or are you against things like lemonade stands, lawn mowing, dog walking, babysitting or any other thing people regularly encourage and pay minors for? Because those are all forms of child labor.
