Is the whole Soros thing just morons pretending the Democrats have their own Koch brothers?

That pillar of fascism which requires the enemy to be simultaneously weak and strong. In order to depict the left as strong they're forced to resort to fiction.

here's a loose translation:
[PANEL 1]
TRUMP: That's your ball, Abe.
ABE: The ball is too big, and the hole is too small.
[PANEL 2]
ABE: The ball and hole are different?
TRUMP: That's right! America first.

This is true, though there's another source of the meme: Soros consistently (to a fault, really) supports developing countries getting practical self-determination, so the Traditionalist/Eurasian folks have seen him as a big public enemy of their neo-imperial dreams since at least the mid-90s. Alexandr Dugin saw the Shadowy Hands of Soros everywhere, way before it was cool.

The left is hot and cool looking while the right are frigid and falling apart, AGC

ManlyGrunting posted:

The left looks like it's constantly shifting but it's ultimately stable and easy to understand. Meanwhile the right's policies mean that it will completely destroy itself within a generation, creating horrific worldwide consequences that they won't be alive to reap the consequences for. AGC

Sure that's an easy AGC but I hope it's meant to be a Gibraltaresque rock, i.e. stable and unmovable, but Lester is simply incapable of drawing some details like maybe a few bushes so it would look less like an iceberg.

Then again you can see the horizon through the cliff, so maybe he really means it to be an iceberg in which case I don't know what he's trying to say.

I think it's supposed to be it's the tip of an iceberg or something really dumb that doesn't pair well with a lava lamp.

I am guessing the lava lamp is meant to represent a fad that is the product of its time.

Either that or a potential fire hazard.

Nenonen posted:

A lava lamp is a tasteless gadget that is in a permanent state of change. Which is why I think a solid rock standing against the sea of change would be a sensible opposite. But Lester can't draw if he meant that, or if he did draw it as an iceberg then he can't draw and he can't make sensible metaphors.

Yeah, when I look at that rock, I see three things- 'blue', 'entirely isolated from a nearby landmass,' and 'in the sea'.

It's the rock of Gibraltar.



You know, a big, solid rock. When told that the constitution is the bedrock, smart and right conservative knows that means solid and immovable, like a rock. Stupid and wrong liberal thinks it's means malleable and changing, like a lava lamp.

Also please stop being willfully dense, people. We know what the Republican talking points are so we know what Lester was trying to illustrate, even if he's such a poo poo cartoonist that he failed. Goo day,

Sorry, how did the media destroy due process? Is this something about how certain white suspects are "guilty until proven innocent" in the eyes of the media (which does not actually affect court rulings) or what?

What the people carrying “Resist” signs really don’t like are the Deplorables who voted for Trump.

An October Huffington Post headline read “Trump’s Refusal to Accept Election Results has Americans fuming.” And Hillary called Trump a “threat to Democracy” for refusing to say in advance he’d accept the results of the election.

But Trump won and now the shoe’s on the other foot. A Reason headline about protesters at Berkley says, “Thugs indulge their Weimar Dreams and Become the Totalitarians They Claim to Hate.”

When Nordstrom dropped Ivanka Trump’s fashion line, President Trump tweeted. He accused the company of treating his daughter unfairly.

Trump isn’t the first president to defend his daughter. A Washington Post music critic once gave Margaret Truman a bad review for a singing performance. Her father, President Harry Truman, gave him hell:

quote:

In response to Washington Post Music Critic Paul Hume’s December 6, 1950, review of Margaret Truman’s singing performance at Constitution Hall, stating,

“Miss Truman is a unique American phenomenon with a pleasant voice of little size and fair quality (she) cannot sing very well is flat a good deal of the time�more last night than at any time we have heard her in past years � has not improved in the years we have heard her � (and) still cannot sing with anything approaching professional finish.”

President Truman responded with the following letter to Hume:

THE WHITE HOUSE

WASHINGTON

Dec. 6, 1950

Mr. Hume:

I’ve just read your lousy review of Margaret’s concert. I’ve come to the conclusion that you are an “eight ulcer man on four ulcer pay.”

It seems to me that you are a frustrated old man who wishes he could have been successful. When you write such poppy-cock as was in the back section of the paper you work for it shows conclusively that you’re off the beam and at least four of your ulcers are at work.

Some day I hope to meet you. When that happens you’ll need a new nose, a lot of beefsteak for black eyes, and perhaps a supporter below!

Pegler, a gutter snipe, is a gentleman alongside you. I hope you’ll accept that statement as a worse insult than a reflection on your ancestry.

H.S.T.
