Abyssal Squid posted:The term Colbert used was "cock holster." Branco drew "poo poo holster" is the implication. But no naughty words on our clean funny pages. Just a biiiiig ol' steaming turd. And also a drawing of poop. Cpt.Americant posted:Right, but why is it bad optics? Does bank money eat your soul? Would it be better if he spoke there but took no money and that he's just there because he's so jazzed to spend time with bankers? Or is this the case of having to pretend wall street doesn't exist at all because they are a bunch of stupid heads and we hate them and no one can ever go talk to them ever? I just I can't get what's so wrong about this. The argument is that taking speaking gigs after leaving office is part and parcel of pro-industry policies earlier, like moving from government/military to think tanks/contractors and vice versa. Obama's speech doesn't bother me much, but I can understand why it would bother others. However, that criticism coming from the wildly pro-business right rings hollow.

I don't know what it is (outside of the abhorrent opinions) about Branco's art but it just seems so horribly unwholesome. Like I feel somewhat ill looking at it.

Ironically, that Colbert caricature is probably the best looking human being he's drawn in ages. Face isn't too puffy, no permascowl or a distended stomach filled with bowling balls...

Debate & Discussion > Political Cartoons 2017: It's unnaturally unpleasant to look at. But seriously, that applies to most commonly posted cartoonists in this thread. Form Liccar and Catalino, through Kirschen and Rall, to Ramirez and... stretchy guy.

I rather look at Rall's lime-green speech bubbles than another Branco.

I just I can't get what's so wrong about this. IMO, it'll become bad optics because people keep yelling "This is bad optics!" Much like how EMAILS and RIGGED PRIMARY became established scandals despite nothing scandalous happening. I think Fox Business was the first to report on this story.

I'm guessing that Branco saw a censored version of the quote and falsely assumed he knew what the phrase was. This seems to contradict the idea that Zelda is supposed to come off as overexcited and unreasonable, a bit, unless I'm misinterpreting it.

Yeah that's not the best Zelda. Probably because it doesn't actually involve Zelda in any way.

LOL, it's a good cartoon. People are really, really invested in gender roles, and there is a market out there for wingnuts who want their children just as abused and dysfunctional as they are. Remember that duck cartoon? I also suspect some of the odd phrasing just comes from translation, an English-original cartoon would pass more or less without notice in this thread.

He already did one decrying Macron, he's not gonna bother with another. Or he'll double down and show dirty ISIS cheering the victory or whatever.

Non-Muslims aren't allowed in Mecca and Medina, how is Dumpus gonna visit the actual birthplace of Islam? Also, nice of Yaakov to just sort of ignore that Israel is also the birthplace of Christianity and just mention Rome.

This cartoonist doesn't know how mirrors work. It's been a while.quote:9 First of all, that's really dumb. What's the idea here? "For some reason Brexit sort of sounds like exit. I can make a pun form that. I bet nobody ever thought of that! Second, that's France not Great Britain. Does they think Macron has the power to stop the Brexit now? Was it secretly Le-Pen's plan?

21 Muns posted:Please no, please, please, no... Please don't become the leader of the world's religions, Trump... Is that a challenge? Do you think he can't do it? That he shouldn't do it? Now he will do it just to spite you. Congrats on unifying the world's religions. Look at it from this way. He wanted to reach the highest point, because he assumed that would satisfy his ego and make him happy. Clearly he is not happy right now. So the only way to climb further up is to become the messiah.
