That comic is almost as surprising as the term. Humor has changed so much. You’d never get away with that much dialog in a comic these days.

Galvanized iron blankets sound like what the military would issue.

Note that these are emergency powers he’s using. Supposedly this is a crisis.

That’s why I don’t believe the story. If it’s true, whoever is holding the tapes could print money right now.

It was printed by some right wing rag that thinks this doesn’t make him sound way cooler.

BE CAREFUL. I HEARD THEY HAVE A VIRUS THAT MAKES YOU TYPE IN ALL CAPS.

That was Occupy Wall Street. But they weren’t useful idiots for big business, so “moderates” just laughed at them.

Brandon. Look up Mistborn. Steelheart and The Stormlight Archives are good too.

I appreciate your knack for understatement.

…or they’re on the take as well.

If you cannot see how often the US has been the invader, overthrowing a small country’s government for their resources, I don’t know what to tell you.

If a hundred million of your constituents are asking you to do something, fucking do it. A candidate can tell their base to shut up, but expecting them to still turn out, as we just saw, is a fantasy.

“AI slop is great to make political propaganda” is the absolute worst take.

Nobody cares about wooly mammoths. This is a test of gene editing techniques that can eradicate genetic diseases.

If a Democrat’s billion dollar war chest can’t stand against an anonymous online person saying “Democrats are centrists” maybe they shouldn’t be centrists.

Fascism cannot stand against the power of color coordination. (And friendship. Have we tried using the power of friendship?)

And it’s telling that so many people didn’t care whether the dictator or Democrats won, isn’t it? If you’re making the case between yourself and a megalomaniac, and the majority of Americans shrug and go about their day, what the hell are you doing wrong?

How many years can the libs keep this up?

Until the collapse of society. (Three)

Keep telling yourself the voters are morons until we lose in 2026 and 2028. If Democratic candidates don’t convince people to come out and vote we are lost.

This may be news to you, but all of the Democrats in Congress were elected to represent their constituents. That doesn’t change whether they are in the majority, minority, or regardless of who is in the White House.

Yes, the amount of power they have is related to those things. But when Democrats talk about working with the current administration, that is an abdication of their duties.
