Not that this sentiment really breaks new ground but I'm really loving sick of the "boy 2016 sure sucked!" excuse for a joke being so endlessly regurgitated. There was a rant to this effect on The Worst Things for Sale -- it got a little too into the topic but expressed a similar sentiment.


Everyone's been hopping on this train, from random YouTube commenters to Twitter personalities, but just for the sake of relevancy, let's assume you're a nationally syndicated cartoonist. You have the power to reach, with your words, an audience so vast that an uncountable many people would envy your voice.
You could say something profound, but instead let's just go with "gosh 2016 was so bad!!" Nailed that one. Great job.

To be honest the predominating message thus far has been "2016 sucked... and all signs are 2017 will be worse because Trump."

Your friends must be smarter than mine because I've heard a lot of people in the last few weeks who are apparently 100% convinced that Russia singlehandedly decided our election results via hacking (they are, however, not specific as to what exactly this hacking did)

This is why I've resorted to describing it as "Russia did a Watergate." It's not perfect since a lot of people don't actually know what the crime in Watergate was, but most people are aware it wasn't about voter fraud.

I shared this comic with brother mine:

"blow it out your rear end. Have you been to any political group meetings since the election? The left is in big big danger, and if they don't accept reality we're screwed. But they're all delusional, holding onto identity politics. Do me a favor and name one conservative author/thinker that you respect. We won't beat this new form of cultural nationalism unless we understand the other side because obviously screaming that they're racist misogynist pigs doesn't work anymore.
Tulsi Gabbard should run in 2020
Also watch Adam Curtis
And that comic is funny how it's punchline is basically "look fox news! Remember to keep being a partisan hack!"

I'm sorry your brother is a dumb. This election brought out the aggressive belittling stupid in a lot of people.

Unfortunately, even this is Putin's evil plot-- Russia is funding secession groups like Yes California because it desperately wants to have this be the 90s but with the script flipped.

I'm guessing from the responses so far that all there is to it is "while normies debate this question as though there are only two answers, Third-Way post-partisan problem solver Donald Trump thinks outside the box and discovers a third option which is obviously better because it's different" and that's that.

That said, can anyone explain to me why Trump is wearing Mickey Mouse cartoon gloves, what is the hidden message there

Ryan Zinke pisses me off that he went into the same field as Geology majors. I loving hate oil and gas geologists now, nothing but a bunch of fucks looking at ways to give there dying industries a excuse to mine public lands.

I rather kill my career calling oil and gas companies shitheads than work for them no matter how little they would offer me because I never took any oil and gas classes for my major and wanted to be a Paleontologist first and foremost

This is more or less why I went into archaeology; quite aside from the academic aspect, I get a little sick thrill from discovering archaeological sites on land intended for development by power monopolies and telling them to go gently caress themselves for at least a year and a half while we do a thorough assessment of cultural resources.

Whatever metric you want to use a huge chunk of the people who voted for Trump were women.

So all these cartoons implying that women are solidly against Trump and they stand united against him are laughable BS.

If you think about it, one can't ever say anything meaningful about Trump's supporters or his opposition, they are ineffable sublime forces intersecting our realm from the plane of Platonic politics and we should merely lie back and achieve harmony with their oneness.
