Righto. Wasn't the visual style of the typical crop of conservative Australian cartoonists so was uncertain what side it was on. Figured on first blush it was a They Live situation.

ungulateman posted:they're "no coloured glasses" because the brainrot that makes people vote no has them terrorised about roving gangs of aboriginal militants coming to take their stuff. it's saying that's bad. The No campaign is hinged on Indigenous Australians being strong and weak- The Voice will achieve nothing so why are we wasting time and money on a referendum, but it will also open the door to a Blackfella Dictatorship when Treaty lets them control the government. It will destroy Indigenous culture and cause more suffering, while letting them rob Australia via even more welfare. There was also a minor schism when one spokesperson, Warren Mundine, started arguing to vote No becuase it didn't go far enough, which the white supporters obviously disagreed with. The single best breakdown of the No sides belief is that just about all the major spokespeople have said, out loud, 'colonisation was good actually'. Just ignore the wholesale massacres, slavery, kidnapped children and at least one successful genocide.

Rall: #9 Democrat Takes on #1 Republican Ted Rall posted:Democrats make a strong argument that Donald Trump has authoritarian tendencies and might even want to replace our democratic republic with a dictatorship. They say that he is corrupt and dangerous. They argue that nothing is more important than to defeat him and prevent him from ever becoming president again. If all that is true, why are they insisting on renominating Joe Biden? He has stubbornly low approval ratings to the point that even most Democrats don’t want him to run again. Could it be that they don’t really want to win? First Dog on the Moon: Here's a sad story that won’t grab the attention of the nation

What's wrong with the graph. slope = +1 so the more you gently caress around the more you find out y-intercept = 0 so if you don't gently caress around you don't find out function undefined for negative amounts of loving around makes sense to me

I would not inflict Garrison on anyone. If he mysteriously got locked in a trunk with the rotting corpse of Vladimir Putin however, I might give it a shove over a cliff.

I wouldn't say Garrison is a furry because that implies some level of self-awareness or participation in the community. He's the kinda guy where when he has a heart attack, his daughter's gonna find his secret stash buried deep in his sketchbooks, and it will bear no resemblance to any known furry art, it'll be just for him. It'll be like Osamu Tezuka but like 100 times more deranged.

Also, Mark Levin and other "establisment"-leaning GOP talking heads have been spending the last few days crowing that Gaetz is now practically a progressive Democrat socialist working hand-in-hand with AOC and Ilhan Omar to dismantle America, so they'd probably be running cartoons like that even without the photo-op. It's funny how cartoonists are settling on "the bad guy from the first Incredibles" as their go-to caricature for him, though.
