I... yes. That's what the movie us about. A few good men standing up to structures and systems of power. Do people think Col. Jessop was the hero?

It's now completely divorced from any context in the movie itself, like "I'm mad as hell, and not going to take it anymore." The movie itself is close to 30 years old, I imagine most people haven't seen it.

I never sat through the movie and I still got that Jack Nicholson is accused of wrongdoing and he incriminates himself in court. In any other thread I'd suspect the cartoonist is playing to an audience that agrees with that character, but this is politoons so everyone is dumb.

Conservatives always identify with the Tough Guy, no matter how hard (usually in spite of how hard) the media in question paints them out to be a stupid piece of poo poo who should be reviled at every possible opportunity. The one laying down sick burns and telling everyone else how it really is, doubling down no matter how wrong they're proven to be and otherwise being the most colossal rear end in a top hat in the room, that's the guy they want to be.

Zesty posted:Yep, if there's one thing conservatives respond to, it's shame. It's not well considered, as one antivax narrative is "people who object to the vaccine are unfairly maligned". How many people in modern society see the dunce cap as a fair punishment for children? This cartoon could easily be misinterpreted as antivax. "Shaming people who don't take the vaccine is just as cruel and ineffective as this outdated teaching technique"

Stantis is so incurious and unimaginative that he couldn’t come up with a fun new slogan for trump 2024, instead settling for one that wouldn’t make sense

I mean, Trump is so incurious and unimaginative he tried to run his 2016 campaign over again in 2020 and will absolutely run it again in 2024 so if anything Stantis is giving him too much credit that he won't just MAGA again.

If you took out “white” and possibly “patriarchal,” this comic could have run verbatim in 1994. Really underscores how conservatism functions and how only its objects shift very slightly.

I’m going to hand it to him. “Disparagement is one of my favorite things.” Is a pretty great punchline for Rall talking about himself.

The worst is the burger-striped, baggy, collared polos that Burger King has. I saw this incredibly stylish-looking young woman changing into one of those last minute in the parking lot outside BK and she came out the other side looking like a thrift shop mannequin
