So, basically every Mallard Fillmore strip is either "Schools/young people are idiots" or "you think you're BETTER than me BUT YOU AREN'T AND YOU'RE STUPID AND I HATE YOU," I take it.


I guess Branco is one of the Trump faithful. Even though he's incapable of depicting anyone in a positive light, even the people he likes, it seems like he tries to show Trump as strong and capable. You know, despite all the evidence to the contrary.

Also, apparently NBC and CBS have massive asses. :stare:

Wasn't Ted Rall the one who did a whole "pay for the privilege to watch me eat" thing years ago? I can't remember what site it was being done through but it amounted to if you pay for all expenses, Ted agrees with the chosen restaurant/lodging, and thinks you're interesting enough... you get to talk to him. For a while.

Obama did what now?

Could be referring to this.

quote:

According to a source with knowledge of a White House meeting that took place Wednesday morning, Trump’s team is considering launching an investigation into a Department of Homeland Security program that shares information on cyberattacks in an effort to coordinate globally on countering digital threats, insinuating that it inappropriately opened up streams of sensitive data to Russia and other nonallies. Another option under consideration is placing a story in the media about the program, similarly accusing it of sharing sensitive information.

Basically, "Why attack me for giving intel to Russians when Obama gave intel to Russians???" Even though the intel given wasn't remotely the same, or as sensitive.
I don't think they still plan on going that route, though.

I kinda love the cartoons implying 'all Real Americans, right thinking patriots, HATE Obamacare and would cheer its removal!'
Every time the GOP had a bill out long enough to be examined and scored it always ended up with the vast majority of poll respondents opposing it.
Meanwhile the ACA was polling better than ever. You know, once people found out the ACA and Obamacare were the same drat thing. :v:

I wonder what Garrison thinks of Star Trek Discovery. As I understand it ST:D (what an acronym) is going to have multiple LGBTQ characters in it. It will also take place prior to TOS, meaning that by Kirk's time in the captain's chair it would certainly have been Federation policy not to discriminate. :v:

Yeah that was my first thought after remembering that Rogers is from Pittsburgh. When your city hosts the biggest furry convention in the world for 20 years, furries'll get noticed by people I assume otherwise probably wouldn't be aware.

It's really depressing, but not that surprising, that the thread favorites would pick up Trump's BOTH SIDES BAD! line. Or coming dangerously close to "actually, people who oppose Nazis are worse than Nazis."

Like how do you even get to this point? Where devotees of racist genocide are given so much deference and benefit of the doubt? A person is dead, another was beaten, many more injured, at the hands of people wrapped in Nazi regalia, and all some of these assholes can say is ":byodood: ANTIFA ARE SCARY THUGS!"

Oh, of course, because Nazis are far-right, and 'Right = Good, Left = Bad', even if they're so far right they're literally neo Nazis.

I want each one of them to read those accounts from local church goers basically saying "that poo poo was terrifying but thankfully the Antifa were there to help defend us."

Edit:

This is glorious.

Considering Branco's previous toons it's not super surprising his take would be "Nazis are bad, but there was only like a couple of them. Also they weren't with me. And all they did was stand around for a while. (And I totally agreed with them that the statues are Cool 'n Good.)

There was an article linked to in another thread, I think, but it was about how Puerto Ricans who lived up in the mountains were trapped with no supplies, no utilities, and trying to get to a town meant a long arduous trek on foot since the roads were blocked and the cars had no fuel.

Or tweet threads about how much damage has yet to be repaired, or all the people that are now living off of a can of beans per day.

Then Garrison rolls in with his steamin' hot take, Everything is fine. Or, it WOULD be, if it weren't for those godammned UNIONS and that dumbass Trump-hating Dem Bitch Mayor!.

Most Garrison toons are just eye roll inducers. This one is actually, like, really bad.
