The angry one just vibrates in the original post. I have seen this artist use animations in one panel like this one, mind you it's a reddit link.

Took her 12 seconds to process that response.

same energy

That oddly fitting comment below.
-
If those people knew anything about Communism and Islam they'd realize how utterly stupid that combo is...
-
…what? All three Abrahamic religions are extremely explicit and clear about providing food and shelter to the poor and needy. What counterexample did you have in mind?
-
These people just interchange socialism and communism like they're the same thing.
-
Tbf if you ever lived in North Iraq you would see how much left-leaning average religious Kurd is.
If we stopped invading the region for oil and all it would stabilize and then progress over time.

man daddy
Hell yea
-
I feel like they're jealous inside haha
I just don't understand why they would care so much about what's happening in a blue state far away from them. It's like the very idea of someone else living a peaceful happy life sends them into a rage-fueled, spiteful wrath

she really said ":3"

See, that's the thing.
People just don't seem to realize how important my opinion is. I did, like, research and stuff!

It already has more gay and trans people than any other city in the US by numbers. Now they just need some socialism!
-
I was gonna say, so it'll be about the same, but socialist? Right on!

Socialism is a buzzword that has been used in the US to attack anything remotely progressive that's happened in the last century.
When Social Security and the New Deal programs were introduced, they were called socialism
When the voting age was lowered to 18, it was called socialism
When the FMLA was passed, it was called socialism.
It's literally just a word that Republicans who don't want to support our communities use instead of just flat out admitting that they're anti human

It’s literally just a word that Republicans who don’t want to support our communities use instead of just flat out admitting that they’re anti human
Let's not pretend it's just republicans.

Any sources on this? I'd like to share with some relatives.
Edit : I wanted some more ammo for Thanksgiving coming up, so thank you for the help.

History? You can watch a new conservative calling anything the government does to help people socialism every day.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Deal#Criticism
In 1934, Roosevelt defended himself against those critics in a "fireside chat":
[Some] will try to give you new and strange names for what we are doing. Sometimes they will call it 'Fascism', sometimes 'Communism', sometimes 'Regimentation', sometimes 'Socialism'. But, in so doing, they are trying to make very complex and theoretical something that is really very simple and very practical.... Plausible self-seekers and theoretical die-hards will tell you of the loss of individual liberty. Answer this question out of the facts of your own life. Have you lost any of your rights or liberty or constitutional freedom of action and choice?[279]
At the same time, there was an actual (failed) attempt at a fascist coup on Roosevelt's watch:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_Plot
The Business Plot, also called the Wall Street Putsch[1] and the White House Putsch, was a political conspiracy in 1933 in the United States to overthrow the government of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and install Smedley Butler as dictator.
So, yeah. Fascists hate this stuff and will do anything to fight it, from name-calling to revolution.

Look im not gay but if comes with healthcare im willing to try.
-
Talking seriously, from a "centrist" point of view, worrying about that a "gay trans sociallist hellscape" makes no sense seeing how easy is for the right to get to power no matter how crazy it seems.

Why is a comic strip 12 seconds long?
-
It's a gif where in the last panel the angry bigot shakes a lot.
-
Thanks
-
-
No one wants to read a 15 second comic strip.
-
Did you even attempt to visit the source?
-
Obviously not

It's funny how they're trying to paint him as a communist revolutionary or something, and in the process, just making him look even cooler.
-
I think these people turn red usually in less than 12 seconds.
-
Nice work, y'all. You pissed off the cons
-
Now, let's get them and Nick Cage in a plane!

If we don't attempt democratic socialism then capitalism will bring absolute poverty to the economy (we're already so close, but people aren't eating leather yet), which will lead to revolt, rebellion, and lots of death. Then a most likely scenario will be Communism, where things will likely look good at first, then quickly fall backwards. Then more revolt, then fractured states. We're about 50 years away from being the Northern States of America, with all kinds of squabbles, different laws, sketchy trade deals, etc. All this will likely end in the worst scenario: Texas is claimed by Mexico and Texans will all be refugees fleeing to other states.
-
Dude I think you've been drinking a little too much of the kool-aid, none of those scenarios would actually happen even within 50 years. Absolutely no way zero. If you think Mexico would become a more successful State than any part of the United States then you really are smoking some good shit. And the United States devolving to Communism within 50 years that is not even going to happen not even a little not even anyway no way no how.
-
IKR, it's gonna happen much sooner. The way things are going right now, it will only take 10-20 years.
Even then, 20 years is very generous and it could be much less. It took only a few years for Germany to become fascist. History taught us that governments and ideologies can change VERY quickly.

Credit where it's due though: Karen's got a pretty sweet flip 'do going on.

Visited Manhattan around '91 or so, gayest place I've ever seen. And I'm from Tulsa, which believe it or not, has a rockin' gay scene!
-
sad gay San Francisco noises
-
Reminded me of NY Gays vs LA Gays
-
I assume the noises must include trolley bells?
-
The gentrification by tech bros overrode the gay but not in a fun way
-
-
And you were so close to Provincetown, RI. Our parents took us when I was maybe 11, my brother 12. I like to joke that it turned him gay.
-
I'm so sorry we didn't get you too.
-
-
You’ve clearly never been to Saugatuck, MI.
-
-
Ehem, as the kids say
"Cope and seethe"
-
this would make me consider moving there
-
And if they complain some more, tell’m to move to Russia. Putin needs more cis con capi paradises.
-
... I need panel 4 on my wall.
-
Boy do I have news for you, it already is.
-
Useful idiots BTFO
-
Ok I agree with the sentiment but I hate the "observe this meme in which your side is portrayed as the ugly one and mine is portrayed as calm and collected". it looks like the type of stuff id see on facebook
-
The only thing inaccurate here is that repubs aren’t calling Mamdani a socialist- they’re calling him a communist.
-
But they are objectively angry and crazy. And hate-filled. And Nazis and their enablers.
If they are throwing baby tantrums over everything, they shouldn't be surprised if they get laughed at, because we've tried working with them for long enough, and see what it got us. Better let them see that their shit is making them look unhinged and ridiculous.
-
but it's the truth...
-
To us, this is just a passing meme
To them, this is debate. They actually get upset over this kind of thing, it makes them feel like they're losing
-
In a way, I guess I agree; it’s not the wittiest analysis of the argument. Everyone SHOULD have topics they get angry about. What matters is which ones. Getting angry about feeding children is a sadly truthful analysis of conservatives right now.
Could lead to a funny comic where they compare reasons each was angry about the last NY mayoral election they lost.
-
This isn't even it to me. Its the constitution, the law, and just not cheating. If they are willing to not only play by the rules but respect them as they are literally are country, then its fine they have and push for their opinions. The system when actually applied should get us something at least functional. America literally is the constitution and if you break it you are the unamerican.
-
-
It's pretty accurate when you see how mad useful idiots are that a servant of the ruling class didn't get elected.
Nothing pisses them off more than their abusers losing a bit of power.

Gay, trans socialist hellscape > straight, cis, capitalist hellscape
Poor people riding the bus
Don't forget the important details.
How dare they ride a bus.
They should be walking, so it is easier for me to ride them over while laughing. /s
