Those Branco toons are actually better drawn than his current ones. I wonder if he had a stroke (and if so can he have another?)

He can draw somewhat if he put in effort but why bother when grumpy Facebook dads wouldn’t notice the difference anyway.

I think when a cartoonist willfully deploys old anti-Semetic archetypes in toons that are widely disseminated among young, impressionable alt-righters whose brains are already miswired from an adolescence of 'provocative' shitposts and are now taking that attitude into the real world it creates a real threat of violence to my community; whereas me saying 'it would be funny if Garrison accidentally maimed himself using his wife's labelmaker' on a small politoons forum it's just a joke. But yes, that would be very funny.

Personally I wish bodily harm and cancer on the scum that pour gas on the brain-damaged ideological fire that multiplies the human suffering in the US and abroad by keeping Facebook Dads and their ilk as ill-informed and regressive as they are

Yes they deserve to die and I hope they burn in hell

What if both Branco and Garrison tripped over one another and fell down an unfathomably long flight of stairs.

Like, the camera just keeps pulling back on it.

And the stairs were labeled "anti-semitism."

I'm not sure how I'm supposed to feel about the advice this lady is giving Zelda. Like, nothing she's been saying has been wrong but it's also been kind of generic? Like, Zelda is telling her about some extremely personal stuff ("I used to do an angry person who thought I was right all the time, but as I've gotten older I've become more self-reflective and I'm wondering if I should make some changes in my life since my current situation brings me little joy or fulfilment") and the other lady is responding with platitudes about the patriarchy which, while all true, don't directly connect to the things Zelda is upset about. It sort of comes off like the woman doesn't really care about Zelda and just wants to hear herself talk.

I dunno, maybe I'm misreading it or something was lost in translation.

How loving dense do you have to be to think this is because of politics and not because fewer people are watching TV in general? Is it because boomer cartoonists grew up in a world where TV is the sum of American culture and can't imagine a world where it's no longer the dominant form of media in America?

Michael Ramirez is a dolt, and all of his opinions sound exactly like one a dolt would say.

Again Zelda accurately portrays real life, down to how most people actually are just shallow cliches pretending at depth and uniqueness, even if by accident.

Not to mention, the NFL is an awful organization full of awful people exploiting players and hiding the consequences of what they put players through for years and years while making tax-exempt money hand-over-fist as they hold cities hostage for new stadiums costing hundreds of millions of dollars. (Edit: Looks like they gave up the tax-exempt thing.)

And that's just scratching the surface of what's wrong with football in America today. It's also often boring to watch, and there's the conduct of players off the field (also being covered up when possible) that is an issue as well.

I personally stopped watching because my team has a racist name and an owner refusing to even consider changing it, and fans who bashed a quarterback who played his heart out and single-handedly took the team to the playoffs and in the process destroyed his career. And for a lot of them, although hey won't admit it, they treated him the way they did because he was black.

Then, to top it all off, the team is terrible anyways and has been for literal decades. I loving hate the NFL.

Fuck it then. For another pit sandwich and some 'tater salad, I'll post a few more.



The Far Eastern Republic was one of those forgotten little stories / pseudo-countries that sprang up in the wake of the collapse of the Russian Empire. It was basically a buffer state between the (not-yet) Soviet Union and the White Russian remains / Japanese-occupied Manchuria.

It was nominally democratic, allowed participation in the election process of parties other than the communists, and (according to, admittedly communist eye-witness accounts) really quite ineffectual.

They also has some kickass posters against the capitalist pig dogs, the White Russian dog pigs, and the Japanese hedgehogs.

In what universe do these idiots think noticeable numbers of people are going to stop watching football because someone kneeled during the anthem? Even if you're racist as hell you're just gonna go "they should cut that guy" and take an angry swig of Bud Light. What do they think the NFL should be doing about it exactly? This entire talking point makes zero sense.

Well I think that might be also the joke. The other gal even looks to the camera to give her zinger about the patriarchy. Not really a good joke, but yeah, I get the impression it isn't really about zelda.
