batshit rightwing cartoons -- 2017 unto eschaton

I wonder what the Trump admin's views are on marijuana

From his commentary on the toon featuring Sessions going after a pot leaf:

But it never happens. Our Attorney General, Sessions, has recused himself from investigating her crimes. Instead, he’s going after marijuana.

The so-called ‘war on drugs’ has been a monumental flop. It’s a waste of lives, resources, energy and time. Have you learned nothing from prohibition, Jefferson Sessions? I realize President Trump was elected to enforce the rule of law. We want illegal aliens kicked out of the country, for example. Obama certainly didn’t enforce that law.

But marijuana? Leave that up to the states to decide!

Obama kicked out more than any president in history but I'm not about to fact check Ben Garrison

Branco has taken to doing a 'serious' crying-uncle-sam cartoon each time there's a particularly high-profile spree shooting

kind of have a morbid curiosity re: how long it will be before there's a shooting and he just reuses one of the pictures with a different caption rather than bothering to do a new drawing

i don't get that last garrison at all.

the conservative voices exit ramp leads to oblivion?

the moustache that first one is sort of weird - uncle sam is not usually portrayed with a moustache, right? - but Branco has a moustache himself, so maybe it's a kind of self-portrait

just noticed tears shaped like florida.

"i don't get that last garrison at all."

Official protectors caught with their pants down, and try to put blame on gun ownership in general.

Don't know what the bloody palms represent.

Oops, wrong one. The Garrison is saying the social media biggies suppress the conservative POV.

Also yahoo still a major force in social media if garrison is to be believed.

got 'em FULLER!

I like the surprise reveal in the last panel - so the guy wanting to ban guns is a lefty!!!

our country is an eternal conflict between the Tasmanian Devil and Droopy Dog

The Social Media Freeway, where Youtube is in the left lane and contains no wingnut conspiracy theory videos that my conservative friends insist I must watch to learn the truth (man.)

^^^lol you should change your DN to Jor

ah yes, marxism, famous for banning assault weapons

And ironically the gun looks somewhat like an AK47.

How can a ban on guns be represented as a gun? What sense does he think this makes?

He's making a point about who the real guns are here.

I've stopped asking those questions about Mr. Garrison tbh

More than the others in this thread, he's playing to an audience that loves irony, particularly when it suggests that the libtards are guilty of the only sin the audience recognises, hypocrisy.

TFW you are unable to find out what Roseanne looks like before you draw your cartoon

https://grrrgraphics.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/roseanne_barr-tina-toon.jpg

v cool that chuds are just kinda accepting that yeah in fact trump is effectively tackling human trafficking despite, y'know, a lack of any evidence to that effect or even really any public statements from trump about the issue at all

why do i feel like these are probably the same dorks that wd've been drawing YOU'RE DESTROYING OUR COUNTRY takes when Roseanne was in its prime first time round?

it's as true now as it ever was

like i'm gonna watch it now

god this one is so good

its true, you don't see a lot of kids these day's

At first look I thought that this cartoon was making quite an interesting point about the concept of a 'counterculture' and how its co-opting by mainstream culture reflects on not just the absorbing / consuming nature of capitalism but on flaws in the concept of subversion itself as an alternative to actually addressing the disparities in society. Then on second look I realised I had slightly misunderstood the artist's intentions.

your read is better

amongst many many many other reasons the look posited in the picture as 1980 was, by 1980, already a commodified lamestream take on a point missed 5 years previously

to be "counter"cultural is always to perform participation in a subculture that has already been assimilated by hegemonic powers

mainly i'm just happy to learn that i've accidentally joined the counterculture by owning shorts, procreating and remaining white

it's confusing b/c 1980 guy looks to be about thirty years older than 2018 guy

that's what the using the 'phet and doing some hard counterculturing does to your looks!

it must be tough work always having to flip the bird whenever you get into someone's field of vision!

is he flicking off his eyebrow artist for not finishing the job on his one blue eyebrow

So apparently Tina Toon is Garrison’s wife...

that does not sound like a real name, or a real person

Not sure if this is the place for it or the alt-right thread, but military action (especially in Syria) seems to be a bit of a line in the sand for many otherwise diehard Trump supporters. Look at Garrison's latest cartoon for example

https://grrrgraphics.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/shared_vision_war.jpg

On /r/The_Donald meanwhile, the usual tone of Trump cheerleading has been replaced by a list of Trump tweets with the occasional generic maga meme.

Now, how much of this is down to genuine disillusionment and how much down to everyone being Russian bots in the first place I can't say. But it's an interesting bit of data at least.

When you’ve lost Alex Jones...
