Never underestimate the power of meme magic. Concise memes, or cartoons like this one with concise slogans, can change people's minds. That's why leftist memes contain walls of text, and why good, based memes make them so viscerally angry. By boiling down a ridiculous leftist argument to its simplest parameters, you simultaneously expose just how idiotic it is and deprive them of semantics to gaslight with. They try anyway, but it's less convincing for the normies.
I want to meet someone who likes those leftie comics. You know, the ones that always consist of a wokie/woman debating some maga strawman, where the guy barfs lines and lines of ridiculous strawmanned crap and the poor wahmen just sits there with a facepalm and saying "uhhhh..." "I guess?" "No"
Like... Who's fucking mind are they changing with that? No one. THOSE for sure are just same side support porn.
Political satire cartoons have been around for centuries. They were the daily show before the daily show. Using humor to convey political dissidence is sadly one of the best ways to reach the average citizen.
If political cartoons were The Daily Show for centuries before there was a Daily Show, what is the modern day Daily Show in 2021?
Surely, Trevor Noah's TV show doesn't hold the cultural zeitgeist position that Jon Stewart's did in the mid-00s.
Meme culture? Twitter? 4chan? Jack Posobiec?
These TV shows are there to feed confirmation bias and derision of dissenting arguments to normies and keep them in the box, reminding them what good normal people believe vs. the idiots who disagree with them. This 4chan anon explains it well.
I tried looking Branco up but 95% of his cartoons are garbage. It's mostly circle jerking but once in a while he has something somewhat amusing.
I wouldn't mind a shitty drawn cartoon and i doubt your drawing skills are as bad as the horrible art style i see everywhere and in every ad where everybody is long and fat, oddly shaped balloon looking people
you get better with practice
penny arcade is a great showcase of this if you compare the earlier stuff to the more recent stuff
Holy shit Branco posted this?
Biden is a total fucking buffoon, but make no mistake. China's glorified firework display is all bluster to try and impress, not just other countries, but themselves. It's always the smallest dogs that bark the loudest.
Because he has blood on his hands from his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan that resulted in American soldiers getting pointlessly killed. It also harkens back to his habit of clutching his hands into tight fists, like when he infamously did the Cornholio pose on live TV.
I'm so used to political cartoons bludgeoning me over the head with labels that I wasn't expecting a visual metaphor like that.
Zyklon Ben is the worst for this.
Oh, I assumed he had stigmata or something. It's a fine metaphor, but it doesn't translate well to a purely visual medium.
I think it's a reference to that time when he was giving some kind of a speech and just froze in place for like 30 seconds while clenching his fists together really hard. Motherfucker looked like he was flying a jetpack. It's supposed to show he's clenching them so hard his nails dug into his palms.
He's got blood on his hands from the botched Afghanistan withdrawal?
I was wondering that too. The first place my mind went is very disgusting but there's no women in this cartoon so that idea is probably wrong.
