HERE we go, this is the kind of thing i was expecting to see. fuck you, asay

The Gibson Guitar raid was his go-to example? That's some sad-ass barrel-scraping.

Also, fuck you, Asay.

seriously, it really approaches the Onion guy for stretched, bizarre counterexample.

His Obama is so lame too, he looks like a somewhat mellow Guy Smiley.

Obama on his way to hang out w Mr. Natural

kind of the batman theory of villainy there

weirdly inept. What was redacted from Santa's speech? Did Little Billy have something to say in response? What don't they want you to know??

appears to have been desperately rewritten at the last minute when someone realized they were writing the Communist Manifesto in dough-headed winter-clad children form.

yeah, all those things are probably equally important. guns, on the other hand, have no roots whatsoever and are simply a given

the gun itself is the violence it symbolises, so fits nicely in the top-left category

the others are all pretty otm, apart from the rightmost two, which are yer typical rightwing canards, and 'decaying morality', which is again bullshit considering where 'morality' lay a few decades back

uneasy abt 'dissolution of the family' too as this lends itself to bigotry. but given a flexible definition of what 'family' is, everyone's gotta have one right, speshly the young

wrong thread for sensible weighed-up discussion mebbe

Pop Culture

shit like 'decaying morality' will forever be too stupid to be given a moment's consideration, certain social structures and mores could 'collapse' a thousand fold & still not necessarily 'compete' with public executions/racism at the dinnertable/marital oppression of women &c. it's the laziest thinking. p sure you can apply this dazzling unpacking technique to the others, too.

Unearned Fame <- there's a lot of rightwing bullshit contained in this one little phrase

yeah so the three i said were bs. now what about the others, get to it folks

'desensitization' sounds nefarious inna puritanical way but i'm not sure it doesn't indirectly or even inadvertently hit on something

A real conservative WORKS to earn his fame, lazy liberals just want someone to give it to them, amiright?

tbf Karmin may be partly to blame

A little rough around the edges, but I wouldn't necessarily call that a rightwing cartoon.

I agree with the general sentiment of the cartoon, if not the demonization of individual TSA employees (I have never seen a TSA employee enjoy hefting my boob with the back of her hand to check whether it was my underwire or something more nefarious* setting off the metal detector). Or the implicit homophobia.

*there is nothing more nefarious than an underwire bra.

There are the rogue agents who enjoy sifting through dildoes.

(And no, spellcheck, I did not mean to spell "diodes," thanks for looking out for me.)

presumably he is not there to carry out the aforementioned WAR ON CHILDREN

Also, Day By Day has acquired a Former Communist Shame Puppet:

In Soviet Russia, clumsy vector graphics badly stylizes YOU!

i think the schwarzkopf comic's the artist's attempt at irony, with norm being happily greeted by angels of death who resemble flying children

or maybe those are the children whose deaths he caused, and they're so happy he liberated them from the suffering of mortal existence

xxp

until we can make this a peace-loving society we progressives have to protect ourselves from those who oppose us, those...what's the word?

dialogue that trips off the tongue!

the military one is vintage batshit.

As usual Asay completely misses the point

if we were to correctly apply the truth to his illustration there, the US would be a 2,000lb sumo wrestler with more trainers than opposing fighters.

Current aircraft carriers by country:

That's not even trying to be funny.

There's going to be a lot of right wings there. DOYOUSEE?

Why would you own a gun if you think 'guns must be confiscated'?

Yeah, she's obviously meant to be a "hypocritical progressive", but that's so much of a straw man that it may actually be a giant wicker man about to be set afire.

Newspaper scandalously publishing a link to her Facebook profile, happened alot in communist Russia.

Is latest trend. Is wery exciting.

Exposing Elmer Fudd to the eyes of the world is not a noble mission, imo.

Article is thing we do not have in Hhrussia.

Convinced Day by Day is written by a chatbot connected only to the conservative blogoshpere.

every other BSRWC, btw, is running variants on something about Al Gore cutting a deal with Al-Jazeera, apparently the nation's major headline issue in conservaland

do well-off low-information voters wear hats branded by political campaigns though

oh, they will be wearing obama-logo hats for the next forty years

haha, "now it's" paedophilia, BUT WAIT! this innocent pasttime beloved of liberals could soon lead to ... beastality!! c'mon guys paedophilia is way worse than beastiality.

Yeah, abusing kids is totally the beginning of a slippery slope.

lol at the hungover horse

Drunk Horse's "Adult Situations" playing on their stereo no doubt.

:D

Chuck Asay is secretly PETA

the grim reaper totally plays cup-and-ball with the skull trophy when nobody's around
