Someone in Congress said "Let's Go Brandon" when they were talking about how bad Biden's agenda was and how it would ruin America. There's straight up no way to plausibly deny that it means "gently caress Joe Biden" so I have no idea what the lesser McCoy is trying to accomplish here. Everyone knows what it means, especially since the reason it became a right wing meme was to say that the mainstream media was lying to cover up the fact people were chanting "gently caress Joe Biden."

The search on Garrison's site sucks poo poo, and I'm too lazy to go through every rant where he might have namedropped Epstein, but here's the only definitive thing I could find about him acknowledging Trump hanging out with Epstein:quote:Also disgusting is the FakeNews corporate media trying to frame President Trump as Epstein’s best buddy when in fact Trump banned him from Mar a Lago when he found out what Epstein was. Trump also voluntarily released info about the pedophile to the FBI. So as far as I can tell, he's completely ignored that Trump is on the flight logs and even made a joke on camera about how "Epstein likes them young" in favor of "The media is lying and Trump actually doesn't like Epstein at all!"

Unfortunately "children are magically immune to covid" has been a right wing talking point for quite some time and thus this fails at being a parody of what right wingers might believe in a hundred years, since it's already happening. Raised By Birds posted:Tom Stiglich He tends to fly under the radar and get overshadowed by Lester and Ramirez but goddamn it always pisses me off to see Stiglich's incredible racism on display. Plus this is also a great example of that shining right wing gem, "Liberals are hypocritical this way, which is bad. I am hypocritical in the exact opposite way, which is good."

Pants Donkey posted:We used to get a few days of snow, and now we’re lucky to get one day with enough snow to disrupt anything. It was so hot the day before that the snow couldn’t even accumulate on the ground. In this part of Virginia we haven't gotten a good snow in years, most of the time we'll get a couple of inches overnight and it'll be nearly all melted by noon the next day. And even those snows have been getting less frequent over time. Also in this part of VA we were under a burn ban for a while because we hadn't gotten any rain in over a month, which is kind of crazy too. I'm used to summer not having any rain, but fall and winter is usually when we get most rain here. We were in severe drought which I can't remember happening much if at all before. There's a bridge in town that goes over the Dan River, and for about half the year last year, there was a large sandbar in it because the river had gotten so low. I don't remember ever seeing a sandbar in the Dan River when I was a kid, and now it's there so much that it actually feels weird when it's gone.

No see the Trump supporters just stood around in the Capitol building going "What is this place, why are we here, we have no idea what to do!" it was the BLM/Antifa folks who broke windows and stole podiums and carried zip ties to restrain members of Congress with. This is why Ashlee Babbit is a murder victim, because she was just confused and scared and didn't know what was going on and wasn't doing anything except standing around, and the police shot her for no reason.

It's funny because if the man squad or whatever hadn't broken into the prison to rescue someone who was going to die in an hour anyway then the "mostly peaceful stampede" (gently caress you Ishida) wouldn't have happened. It almost feels intentional but it probably isn't since rescuing 2021 is a Good Thing in Ishida's mind I'm sure, especially since they also ended up rescuing the TERF lady.

That's why Tinsley would go off about Squirrel Appreciation Day instead of acknowledging that MLK existed, because that strip looks really loving dumb when you remember the multiple strips Tinsley drew where he depicted minorities as sharks or carnivorous dinosaurs, and liberals as the dumb prey going "Maybe they're nice people!"

HootTheOwl posted:As someone who buys groceries weekly.... what are they talking about? I just went grocery shopping at the Food Lion here in southern central VA a few hours ago and the shelves actually were a bit more empty than usual. Not completely empty, but some bare spots here and there. Notably the barest shelves were instant ramen and bread, which were practically completely empty. Frozen chicken was also pretty slim pickings, as was bottled water and milk. Though to be fair, we had a winter storm pass through here over the weekend and BUY ALL THE BREAD AND MILK is the number one response to weather reports mentioning the word "snow" in this part of the country. And the shelves weren't completely bare, I just had a lot less selection, like having to buy the lovely expensive Dave's Bread because it was the only thing left, and getting regular chicken patties instead of the spicy ones. I think I'll live, though.

In addition to the inauguration speech thing, a lot of it is based on right wingers saying there's no way Biden is going to run again in 2024, and Kamala Harris is so incredibly unpopular that even the Dems know better than to run her, so who's going to get the nomination? Hillary is the only other slightly popular Dem that would fit, and so the right is sure that she'll run again because of that. I think it's also driven by a desire to see Trump run again too, and have 2024 be Trump vs Hillary all over again. Honestly though they're completely right about Harris being unpopular (not that that'd stop them from running her anyway), but we'll have to see on Biden. His mental state definitely could get worse in the next three years, but if it stays about the same, he'll probably run again.

Vib Rib posted:They literally always assume it's affirmative action because in their mind a minority can never actually be the better choice. To them, a white person is always the best fit for any job or promotion, they're always the most qualified, because whites are better and to not choose that means that someone put their thumb on the scale. There can be no other reason. It betrays, nakedly, their opinion that whites are always better, and it's hilarious to see Garrison trying to project that as if it were the system's fault. Not only that, he's trying to speak for minorities in saying "Boy it most really bother them that they can't be sure if they got their job because of affirmative action. It must be terrible for them, if only we got rid of it it would ease their minds for sure." Like they're just straight up implying that even minorities know they're not as good as white people, and so they must feel so guilty about how they've taken a job from a much more deserving white man. Plus the hilarious idea that a black guy would go "I'd rather have not been hired for this job and be homeless and starving than have gotten this job through affirmative action!" Jagged Jim posted:Also a club would totally prevent a dude from sneaking up on you unaware and caving your skull in with a giant rock. Yeah even in the comic he drew it's a situation where the dude having a wooden club wouldn't help him at all. At best you could say "Yeah but maybe one of those cavemen in the foreground could use his wooden club to save that guy" but one, running up and hitting a guy holding a giant rock like that would cause him to drop the rock, which would kill the guy sitting down anyway. Two, they could help that guy right now even without wooden clubs because all they'd have to do is yell "Hey Thagg, run!"
