Jay Rust posted:Is Trump pointing at the sun because he wants to fly into it? That never works out well! Seriously, anyone who thinks Garrison is a good cartoonist should have to defend that comic. I assume he gave zero thoughts to the fact he basically just drew a variation of Icarus, but this time Icarus' dad warning him about the dangers is the bad stupid dumb guy now.

Yikes Muir's nudity has always been ugly but I don't think it's ever been this outright grotesque before. They look like they've been turned inside out. I clicked back a couple pages and I think they were supposed to be mud-wrestling for some reason, y'know, like adults with children do all the time, which SORT of explains it but sure doesn't excuse it

I like that Garrison's comic shows a bunch of awful forces trying to restrain, bind, and hold back the majestic bald eagle. Unlike Trump, who is literally If anything, Trump is depicted as shackling this symbol of America more literally and more aggressively than any other force. They're just touching or holding it, he's put actual restraints on it.

I usually really don't like to psychologize people with opposing political viewpoints, but something seriously broke in Muirs brain as the years went by, and we all watched it in slow motion.

Trump, ever the trash-talking Icarus wants to leave the planet - and by extension America - in favor of the Sun. The sun - cleverly labeled 'America First' - is a fairly unattainable goal as far as destinations go. In order to accomplish this, Trump subjugates and mistreats a giant bald eagle representing America. It is not a happy journey, and Trump is visibly distraught over the length of his tie. Meanwhile, Leftist judges can be seen picking away at the eagle's right wing, symbolizing right-wing policies. The Globalist Deep State, Gaia's protector and one of the more benign elder gods, rises from the ocean to save the eagle from this foolish quest. Fraud News CNN clearly don't want Trump to leave as the guy is a virtual treasure-trove of headlines. Obama is being a huge debbie downer as always.

Isn't this drawn by the Counterthink guy? Also this is a terrible argument to make if you're opposed to factory farming, because methane (greenhouse) emissions are a global, cumulative problem rather than a local concentration problem like canonical "pollutants." It doesn't matter if the cattle are grouped together or spread out, all that matters is the total amount of methane released. If anything, factory farming could conceivably include some kind of methane-capturing setup that you wouldn't get be able to put in a traditional pasture. If you're going to argue that we should be raising fewer cattle to begin with, loving argue that! Of course if this is the Counterthink guy then he's argued both "cow milk is for cows, not people!" and "raw milk #1 chug raw milk every day" so I shouldn't expect him to make actual sane arguments. e: also it's mostly burps, rather than farts, for what little that matters.

Rebel Blob posted:So the story, far as I can figure it after some skimming, is that liberal sister is back on the ranch after being banished by the Muir-insert. She got permission from her sister, Muir-insert's wife, but Muir-insert was never told. When the liberal sister showed up in the middle of the night Muir-insert groped her in the dark thinking she was his wife. Liberal sister liked it and has been lusting after Muir-insert, while he was pissed with his wife for okaying her sister to come back to his ranch without his permission. So, naturally, he paddled his wife, who fully accepted it as an appropriate punishment. A nice wholesome story all around. I actually remember this storyline from the last time DBD came up ITT, and it makes sense considering the thing that got DBD banned was anal rape being fully accepted as an appropriate punishment for bad political opinions. Not sure how it led to mud wrestling though

Benny, you're slipping. Where is the shoe? Did you forgot the shoe? I'm starting to think it's not important to you. Clinton lost a shoe once. How can you ignore that? Maybe you were the swamp all along! Compared to his usual overcrowded pictures, this one seems really boring. Abyssal Squid posted:Isn't this drawn by the Counterthink guy?

If anything, factory farming could conceivably include some kind of methane-capturing setup that you wouldn't get be able to put in a traditional pasture. But I wanted to source that. But while I found studies who said exactly that, there were also some which claimed the exact opposite. Now I realize that I have no real clue about this. Both seem kinda plausible. But I don't even know how you would make a scientific comparison there.

cant cook creole bream posted:I was going to say that industrialized cattle farming actually reduces green house gasses, since it is based on food which is slightly easier to digest than grass and because it allows to slaughter cows faster. Cows fart out methane. It's a fact of cow farming; more beef = more methane. End of story. Methane is a greenhouse gas so more methane is bad. Factory farming generally relies heavily on corn. Corn farming in the U.S. relies heavily on spraying gently caress loads of ammonia all over the corn fields every year. Ammonia production creates greenhouse gasses too; I think it's like 1% entirely by itself. As an aside a poo poo load of that ammonia doesn't stick around in the dirt. It washes into the rivers and eventually the Gulf of Mexico where it is creating massive algae blooms that lead to large areas of dead, anoxic ocean. That is loving up the shrimp industry something fierce as well as fishing there in general.

ToxicSlurpee posted:Cows fart out methane. It's a fact of cow farming; more beef = more methane. End of story. Methane is a greenhouse gas so more methane is bad. Don't get me wrong, factory farming is horrible on a thousand levels, it's just that the cartoon doesn't argue any of those and instead goes with one of the very few issues where there's actually a case to be made in favor of factory farming (even if not a very strong one). At best you could argue that factory farms allow us to support an unsustainable livestock population, which I'd agree with, but it doesn't follow that replacing factory farms with traditional pasturing is the solution. If that were your only consideration, it would make more sense to keep using factory farms but have fewer of them. It just irritates me to see this because they were so close! When it comes to sulfur and sewage and similar "canonical" pollutants, population density absolutely does matter and factory farms are in fact a nightmare there! But you didn't argue that point, you went out of your way to make sure we knew that you were arguing a different point!!!! I'm salty about cartoon farts!!!!!!

People commented for years that Muir was tracing porn: some of the weird poo poo he's selling are various images of the redhead character being hosed.  Dying in this century means bequeathing multiple electronic devices with browser history that will make grieving family members sob without context. Alhazred posted:Can Sam Elliot theoretically (he probably doesn't know or care that he is "starring" in DBD) send Muir a cease and desist? Maybe if he tried to sell Sam Elliot figurines but the comics are pretty well covered by parody case law.
