The Political Satire/Meme Thread

Really, the list strikes me as deeply tribal. Where's Mike Rowe? Kevin Sorbo? Jon Voight (not the dentist)? Chachi? The kid from Silver Spoons?

I don't know, I didn't make it. Thought it was funny.
If y'all don't like it, give it a poop emoji and move along.

I'd prefer to remark on it, thanks. I'm even open to discussion, as is encouraged in the OP, even if you're so clearly not.

I don't actually dislike it, per se. It's humorous that it's both so tribal and so irrational, but I don't imagine it was meant to be. I'm also not likely to be among those to whom it was intended to pander.

I love that this is one of the standard gifs.

He has a similar expression to a dog who's trying to understand words. Its quite uncanny.

Especially if you turn your phone a bit left then a bit right, then a bit left, then...

I've never seen a still image of that person where he's not looking absolutely baffled, like a particularly stupid dog trying to work out what a hedgehog is and why it tastes of pain.

Pounce!

Phone wigs out cause auto rotation was on...

Phone wigs out cause auto rotation was on...

I think he means rotate it back and forth on the vertical axis as if Carlson were a dog trying to follow two people talking, not turn it like a car steering wheel.

No, steering wheel, just not rotated that far.

That's a gremlin.

That's a gremlin.

I passed plenty of really cute pups to get to that one. Seemed more fitting for Tuck.

Pounce!

Reading through the comments on that video you have quite a few contestants for the Cursed Political Content thread.

These "news anchors" sound like they're trying to get in on Lindell's grift of selling pillows in the name of, "Trump's coming back on such and such date".

 

[UKMikey]

Sounds like they're trying to get in on this pie, but surely there's only so many ways you can stuff a pillow.

Meanwhile, here's a short multiple choice quiz:

Cannot take credit for it but I did see a genius comment:

I had wondered what this symbol meant but I figured it had to be some sort of conservative thing because that's where I saw it the most. On hats, shirts, etc. Then I researched it and yes my suspicions were confirmed.

I would say something that would piss off the supporters of the original tweet would be.

It started out as a symbol of fraternity but was appropriated by reactionaries to counter the "Black Lives Matter" movement.

I generally respect the role that law enforcement plays, but that respect isn't offered unconditionally. I oppose the notion that "All Cops Are Bad" (I've even repurposed it as "All Cops Are People," which I maintain), but I'm not so delusional that I can't observe those who enforce the law (an act that ostensibly protects people's rights) as having violated the rights of those they're meant to protect.

For those that wonder what it like to never have anyone agree with you here, even when you're right.
