Faustian Bargain posted:Don't we make fun of other artists for building up a strawman just to knock it down? I like Bors, but this is a miss. See, it seems strange to me that you would call this a strawman. In my view, it's not about conservative people being weird about eating well-done steak. It's about a certain brand of conservatism, which pre-dates the alt-right, whose main ideological inclination seems to be things perceived to make liberal elitists upset. A few years ago, people were taking the mufflers off their trucks just to pollute more. Others were replacing CFL bulbs with traditional incandescent because some liberal elitist tried to make a change. Fast forward to 2016, we have Young Republicans inviting that Milo to speak on college campuses. Deliberate provocation is the name of the game. Now I get to make fun of you for being upset. I swear, the slightest things sets you snowflakes off. People doing dumb things, like polluting more or (saying that they are) charring their steaks and eating them with ketchup, just to try and get a rise out of people. That's not new.

That comic in no way has a strawman, it's a very accurate take on the "HEH, TRIGGERED MUCH LIBERAL CUCK?" kind of conservative. They're the kind of people who would literally eat poo poo if the MSM ran a story saying "Eating poo poo is bad".

I'm glad literally the only thing that you need to be a great President is one semi lucid speech. I'm sure retroactively all these right wing cartoonists will agree on how awesome Obama was.

That's a real talking point, by the way, not a joke: there were plenty of cartoons about how the only reason Obama is such a good orator is teleprompters.

Well that's super depressing to watch a smaller nation make the exact same mistake we've already made on a much grander scale. If America can't be good, at the very least it'd be nice to act as a cautionary tale.

Titus Sardonicus posted:And Trump is almost mediocre at best, even with teleprompters. It's not a good talking point. It never was a good talking point, but it's not about comparing Obama to Trump. It dates to the 2008 election and was a racist dog-whistle to suggest that Obama wasn't really an excellent speaker, he only sounded that way because of the teleprompter. It's way a certain cartoonist (McCoy, I think?) would always show Smug-bama with teleprompters: the dog whistle is that Obama can't possibly really be a great speaker, it must be the technology.

D.N. Nation posted:I think that blob is supposed to be part of the catcher's mask, honestly. Yeah I thought that it too, but it does make more sense given Ramierez's current stance: Either the message is that the speech was good, or that the speech was passable, but the media is also bad and embarrassed. You see because they expected him to not hit the ball which is why they weren't ready to catch it and got hit in the face and um... no that doesn't work either.
