HootTheOwl posted:I thought Asay died Not according to Wikipedia at least. He's 79 now so probably will grace this existence for some while. I really would love to hear his opinion now, as almost octogenerian, on this cartoon and corona, and if he trusts Democrats or Republicans to try to protect his generation from the pandemic more.

Mr. Squishy posted:Do you really want to hear Asay's opinions on the pandemic? He probably thinks it's fake, or that death holds no fear for a good christian man. It's an Asay original, the joke being that insurance agent is of course more interested in respecting your dignity because you paid them, while the government bureaucrat only thinks of how much you cost to the government. Obviously. Here's a Vyelkin edit:

Twelve by Pies posted:Asay loving loves insurance companies, I'm too lazy to go find it but I'm sure someone will post that cartoon where people are watching TV with something like "The media only reports bad news!" and the TV saying "Courts devastated thousands of Americans without homes after Katrina after ruling in favor of insurance companies" and everyone watching frowning to "When they could have reported it like this!" with the TV saying "Insurance companies scored a huge victory when courts ruled people couldn't rip them off by rewriting their contracts!" with the family smiling.

Kit Walker posted:You, an idiot: "it's bad that people are suffering" Notice also how the text even admits that it would be millions sharing the losses of thousands. It's not like the nation would die if each 1000 families helped 1 family to rebuild their home. It's pure evil selfishness, and what makes it worse is that people like Asay pretend to be Christians. They want to ban birth control and abortion, which the religion takes no clear stance on, but will not give everything to help the poor, which Christianity is all about.

Pants Donkey posted:Jesus christ the feet. Also they actually produce the product being sold, so as insufferable as some super celebrities can be at least they are actually making something instead of leeching off an executive spot. Not sure I agree with the bolded part, I mean a record or a movie or even a book is a collaborative process where the production company, publisher, distributors etc. have a huge role and there are lots of people involved besides the celebrity. Their earning model also tends to be more complex than a non-lawyer would understand. With the exception to those celebrities who also are CEO's of their own production companies. But gently caress them all, does the rat think that "Country Girl" thinks that Kim Kardashian should be excluded from taxation and everything? AND WHY ARE NONE OF YOUR EXAMPLES COUNTRY ARTISTS WHEN THE QUESTION COMES FROM "COUNTRY GIRL" FROM INDIANA, RAT???

VitalSigns posted:Is it supposed to be a bad thing that criminals have to pay taxes? And hasn't this been the practise forever, like if you are found to have been smuggling (tobacco, booze, illegal drugs) they will charge you for avoided taxes in addition to the smuggling charges? You will be fined for tax avoidance AND be made to pay the tax.

Kaza42 posted:Is... is this even a political cartoon? What is the possible message here? It's just saying "hey, the continental US kinda sorta looks like a wing!" That's not a political commentary, that's barely even a comment USA needs to expand to the Caribbean big time and build a land bridge through Cuba and Haiti to Puerto Rico, and beyond. I think it's just an illustration for an article, it doesn't seem to have a message on its own. But we'll never know the context.

Republicans posted:Is this pro or anti-Babbitt? The trotskist antifa supersoldier is holding a sweater saying "Let's go Ashli Babbit". "Let's go" is contemporary American English for ye olde phrase "gently caress you", so the left are therefore anti-Babbit. A reasonable reader at this point comes to the conclusion that Mike Lester is a hack who beats his wife.

It's hilarious how Branco keeps drawing Biden as a senile sleepy ghoul, meanwhile Garrison draws him as a dynamic well toned man of action. I guess Ben has figured out that locking him into just one archetype is way too limiting, but just look at that Joe. How am I supposed to know if Biden is good or bad, there's not even fangs?

Rall doesn't specify which missiles Nato has placed at Russia's border. Defensive Patriot missiles? He also doesn't mention that Russia has placed offensive Iskander ballistic missiles in Kaliningrad. That's curious.

Someone should ask the Tenneesee board of education's opinion about My War With Brian. I would give it a 50% chance of getting approval because it teaches kids a "stand your ground (or just kill them when opportunity rises)" attitude.

A republic, in which each ethnic, racial, religious etc. group had an equal representation in senate, would be the best. Otherwise the racial majority group could dominate the nation which might result in bad things. Glad that Benny-Gee agrees.
