Since Dees is no artist he's definitely nicked that Kim portrait from someone. No luck in finding the original though.

Just took a shot of his head from Getty or wherever, make it grey, then draw lines on it. I'm sure his artistry can stretch to that.

Wish Alhazred would at least post old Zelda from back when the comic was good. Much like Rocky and Nemi, these days Nina seems to just squeeze out wet farts because she's making millions.

It's not your typical "I am a leftist and this is why you're wrong and I'm right" cartoon. It's more "The world and society in general are really weird and hard to deal with but I'm doing the best I can." CampingCarl posted:

Apparently Sweden, the other parts of Europe, is struggling with a steady rise of fascist populism. A straight up neo-Nazi political party has something like 22% of the vote. As a leftist living in the south land of Trump's America I can empathize with her frustration.

As a leftist living in the south land of Trump's America I can empathize with her frustration. 12,8% in the election (if you were talking about Sweden), but polling between 14-25% in different polls. Some of the polls where they are in the high end are however of dubious statistical quality, and there seems to be some indication that their growth has stalled somewhat. Still, it's an extremely serious situation.

Yesterday I watched American Psycho. Something interesting: there are many references to Trump in American Psycho. Bateman (the character) seemed fixated in the Trump celebrity. Most violent reaction from Bateman, where caused by his inability to live the Trump live the way Bateman imagine Trump life. http://www.fanofwords.com/american-psycho-donald-trump-ref/ Trump is what serial killers want to be.

 quote:Hillary Clinton stated “I take absolute responsibility” for her election loss. She promptly went on to blame James Comey, Russian ‘WikiLeak’ hackers and misogyny. Hillary expected to win automatically. After all, she outspent Trump two to one. Trump however, out-campaigned her by the same ratio. Trump appeared robust and tireless while Hillary was apparently out sick, coasting or resting. The rust belt wanted jobs, not a repeat of the empty hope and change promises previously delivered by Obama. They were ready for real change. Hillary was the status quo candidate of the central bankers. So was Obama. Trump stood out as a populist outsider with a more compelling vision of America—and he won.

My understanding of Deep State is that it's the bureaucrats and people with an interest in seeing the status quo maintained (so like CIA etc) who undermine plucky little presidents like Trump. Garrison's version is unusual (to me, anyway, I've only seen him do it) in that he specifically puts them at the behest of the Illuminati/Rothschilds/blah-blah.

DreamShipWrecked posted:I have seen it so much in this thread that I have to ask, what the hell is the "Deep State"? Is the right seriously going "Illuminati and Lizard People" now? The name comes from Turkey, where it is/was a real thing. In the context of Turkey, it means that the military holds real power and uses threats, bribes, and the occasional violence to control key figures in the government. When Garrison/the Alt-right days it, it's basically Illuminati bullshit.

It's a term that had some legitimacy w/r/t Turkey, where there was an entrenched pro-democratic, secular apparatus and sentiment in the government and military, with roots back to Kemalism. This was before Erdogan purged the hell out of it, though.

Before the alt-right picked it up I've mainly seen the term used in reference to Turkey, which had a real and very serious problem with parallel power structures in the military and intelligence community that always stood ready to topple any civilian authority that strayed to far from what the generals perceived as the proper Turkish way. e: and beaten several times over that's what you get for typing slowly

Part of what's messy is that the Turkish Kemalists were operating in a sort of Praetorian form, and now that they're gone Erdogan is showing why their presence was so important.

You know... I've said a few times that "Garrison is basically Dees on some meds", but... sick burns aside, there has to be some sort of correlation between believing in these sort of conspiracy theories and actual mental illness. R-right? I mean, Dees' symptoms are (at least in part) "believing in the same poo poo as Garrison".
