batshit rightwing cartoonists 2010

In our last comic, we had the human character, our voice of reason, not understand the joke because of its absurd nature.

no. morelike, the human character says "no idea" because that's how your supposed to respond to a joke. the joke teller gives the set-up in the form of a question. the straight man expresses his (real or feigned) ignorance by saying something like "I don't know, what?" or "I give up". then comes the punchline. calling the human character the "voice of reason" is obtuse as saying the true meaning of a knock knock lies in the line "who's there?".

(the true meaning of a knock knock joke, that is)

knock knock
who's there?
EXACTLY

if the point was to see the human reaction it would help if the human's reaction was shown

Oopsie! I forgot to tell a joke!

i don't even understand why the right wing has such a problem with global warming, like even if the stats are made up, why is helping the earth bad?

because rightwingers have been running on denialism and oppositional politics for decades now. If the dirty fucking hippies are fer it, they're agin' it.

Also, because much of them can't or won't think in systematic ways. Plus, they think that much of it is just scare-mongering by hippies and libruls who hate america and successful american businesses.

It's completely about narrative, and jack-shit about actual science. And there's dozens of more reasons why.

"Find out why helping the earth is taking money out of YOUR wallet, after this commercial break"

Also I don't think man-made global warming has been proved. And I've seen a lot of people post things like "should we all hold our breath to prevent global warming?" and they always talk about how we are having colder temperatures over the past couple years.

As idiotic as these things are, they still have an argument to cling to (unfortunately).

The truth is by politics as pro- or con- 'global warming', they have successfully derailed what should be a conversation about pollution's longterm affects on the human race. Instead of seeing studies on how corporate pollution are causing cancers every day and killing millions in the name of profit, we read about saving this or that rare animal, which really doesn't matter to most people.

The important thing is that we don't consider further regulation of businesses. By making it not about human safety but animals/Earth/gaia they have maintained control of the debate for decades, and with the full cooperation of environmentalists.

should be "The truth is by polarizing politics into pro- or con-"

lol asay.

Pickup owners unite
ugh

I like that Asay apparently thinks his audience has a really strong identification with guys labeled CORP.

Captured evil look on Roberts' face perfectly. He has that Palpatine crouch also. Nice touch.

"MORE JUNK SCIENCE EXPOSED"

yeah, that's exactly how the article I read explained it.

or maybe that's the worldnetdaily's new paper edition.

Isn't CORP just adorable? More than ever, that's how I think of big business - dumpy and amiable.

And the Yeti!
