Politoon Monday!
Quinneapolis
Fun fact: This is supposed to be a comic against military cuts
Quinneapolis
Quinneapolis
Attack on Titan took a weird turn at some point
Quinneapolis
The label on the bags sells this one
dragon time
omg
Quinneapolis
Quinneapolis
Again, supposed to be against military cuts
Hazard Kitten
don't you know Eisenhower is a liberal commie pinko?
Hazard Kitten
(but yeah the anti-military spending cut sure backfired)
Quinneapolis
The full Eisenhower quote is pretty intense
Quinneapolis
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.
Quinneapolis
This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.
Quinneapolis
The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities. It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population.
Quinneapolis
It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some fifty miles of concrete pavement. We pay for a single fighter with a half-million bushels of wheat.
Quinneapolis
We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people. . . . This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense.
Quinneapolis
Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.
Quinneapolis
-Dwight Eisenhower, notable communist dictator
Quinneapolis
Meanwhile Tinsley is busy being a lazy and confused idiot
Quinneapolis
Incisive social commentary from 1915!
Quinneapolis
Multiple people making this joke this week

Yes this is exactly the same, you are clever and insightful and not a bigoted shithead
Quinneapolis
I keep seeing this message of "being hostile to bigots is JUST AS BAD AS BIGOTRY" and it is the most virulent, acidic shit
Quinneapolis
Gays aren't campaigning to ban straight marriage
big juicy
i don't even understand what's going on there??
big juicy
like, if this is supposed to be going "omg but what about the STRAIGHT PEOPLE who want cakes" then why....the black guy/KKK thing there....i don't get it
Quinneapolis
it's saying that this situation is equivalent to forcing a straight man to make a cake for gays
big juicy
there is too much going on and it is all too muddled
Quinneapolis
that is all it is saying
Quinneapolis
that same-sex marriage is the same as forcing blacks to work for the KKK
big juicy
oh, i see.
big juicy
the reason i didn't get it is because it's fucking stupid
Quinneapolis
correct
Hazard Kitten
then you have the "You must tolerate my intolerance or else you're not really tolerant!"
Quinneapolis
But let's talk about something much more important than widespread intolerance
Quinneapolis
BITCOINS
Quinneapolis
Quinneapolis
Hazard Kitten
it's weird, it's as if they just discovered the cryptocurrency
Hazard Kitten
(though yes they're pretty much worthless)
dragon time
more dogecoin
Hazard Kitten
doge meme needs to die
Quinneapolis
It's exactly as offensive as lolcats
Quinneapolis
I love the face on that wolf
Quinneapolis
From 1967
Hazard Kitten
I know it isn't offensive, it's just everywhere
Quinneapolis
Kelly
Quinneapolis
Any day now

Oh my god that last one. It's not just imperial scare tactics, it's a bevy of racial stereotypes
Quinneapolis
And even on top of that
Quinneapolis
they chose Nameless Thug to represent Russia instead of the relevant, recognizeable and easily-drawn Putin
Quinneapolis
I just have to link this one again seriously
Lotions Keith
Hulking, stupid Slav, cunning Chinese guy wearing a Mao suit, and "Iranian" wearing a traditional Arab garment
Quinneapolis
do these people not realize that "swords to ploughshares" was a phrase coined to describe a good thing
Lotions Keith
more likely to be found in Saudi Arabia (an American ally) than Iran
Quinneapolis
his ethnicity is Terrorist
Rama
It's pretty ballsy for a right-winger to make a Mission Accomplished joke though
Rama
Just...wow
Quinneapolis
That's the kind of bullshit that would only happen in a politoon once or twice, fortunately
Quinneapolis
Oh wait
Quinneapolis
No it's not
Quinneapolis
Quinneapolis
Rama
Well at least most of those are by the same waste of oxygen
Rama
Please tell me Ramirez doesn't get paid for making these
Rama
Actually don't say anything just let me assume that
Quinneapolis
Two pulitzer prizes
Rama
God is dead
Quinneapolis
Ramirez is pretty high on my politoon artist contempt radar
Quinneapolis
He produced SA's winner for the Worst Politoon of 2013
Quinneapolis
This little gem
