The thread absolutely hates Ted Rall; even I hate him because he is a compulsive liar and a no-talent narcissist hack who manages to sound self-obsessed even when he's arguing against American imperialism and who regularly changes his opinions to better feel superior to others because that's his main motivation


Oh, that reminds me: Latuff. I wouldn’t say I hate him, but his views are a perfect reverse weathervane. If America does something overseas, it’s bad, even if Latuff was demanding they do that thing last week.

Delonas' key defining feature is the complete lack of anything resembling love or joy in his dried-out husk of a heart so I'm not surprised he had that take or conveyed it in that fashion

Helluva thing to have to look at though :barf:

Same. They were a thing for like, a few days a year and a half ago, yet the worst of the rightwing cartoonists shove them in their cartoons on a near-daily basis, and probably will continue to do so until the heat death of the universe.

It's hilarious.

Remember Obama’s tan jacket? (I was going to say rainbow tie, but I think Lester made that up.)

It’s the same thing as when they say poo poo like “soy boy”. They’re implying a lack of masculinity and their belief is that this is inherently a bad thing with no further justification needed.

More political cartoons need to zero in on this because this is exactly the kind of thing that victims have been saying about the GOP. It’s not about what Kavanaugh did in his past (although he should be held accountable) - it’s about the message they’re sending to men RIGHT NOW by defending him. Don’t worry rapists - the government will stand by you.

I have been blackout drunk a few times in my life, and the first thing I do the next day is ask people what the gently caress I got up to. As it turns out, you actually can get blackout drunk without sexually assaulting people.

Wow, that Delonas cartoon is up there in sheer bad taste with the McCoy cartoon with Obama standing in an abortion clinic dumpster beating the medical waste bags with a baseball bat and saying “Just making sure.”

It’d make my top 5 worst cartoons for sure.

He stopped doing national cartoons and got paid by some Illinois wingnut welfare think tank to draw cartoons solely bashing Michael Madigan. And I mean solely. I would say 90% of what he does for them is Movie That Just Came Out Reference + Michael Madigan Sucks.

That and ghostdrawing Prickly City are his output these days.

At some point he just starting running nothing but local Illinois cartoons complaining about the Democratic speaker of the Illinois house, Michael Madigan, so people got bored of posting him.

Before then I would agree he was one of the most talented right wing cartoonists, though.

I looked thru his archives but couldn't find the pretty great one where a kid Obama is walking a foaming-at-the-mouth Biden-dog while an Evan Bayh puppy looks out from inside the pet store.

That’s Mike Miller, who stopped because it was hurting his actual gig making real comics.

But Trump, the alt-right, and the comics industry currently dealing with its own gamergate have given him the confidence to be a shithead in public again. I don’t know if he’s doing political stuff again and, frankly, I don’t wanna know.
