    One of the worst parts about American politics is the fact that the aesthetics are somehow both insanely self-serious and commercialized beyond parody. Two kinds of gaudiness you'd think wouldn't mix

        Is this product subtly saying South American socialism is the only hope for the western hemisphere? curious-marx

        Luckily Ben doesn't just label everything he also writes a big post explaining his weird horny comics. He says Jupiter and Saturn aligned are the "Christmas Star". https://grrrgraphics.com/the-christmas-tree-of-liberty/

        Jupiter overthrew Saturn and Saturn is associated with death??? No idea, this was a notably weird one from Ben Garrison a while back.

        This was made around December 2020 during the "Great Saturn and Jupiter Conjunction". From the perspective of the Earth, they had gotten so close together in the sky that they appeared to the naked eye as a single object. Apparently that's called the Christmas Star, and the last time they had gotten that close was 800 years ago.

        As for what allegorical purpose they are filling by being in this cartoon, I have no idea.

    This is so cool.

    I know nothing about this but I'm guessing it's a chud wine in response to the Bud Light boycott.

    I know Americans are dumb and transphobic, but this has got to be the dumbest chud protest I've seen in my life. I thought freedom fries were bad, I thought the Keurig machine thing was funny too, but they're completely boycotting the most common beer in the US because of like 3 Instagram posts from a trans woman.

    Bud Light has been sponsoring pride events for like 20 years now. Also they're an evil corporation who puts piss in cans and sells it as a beverage. You'd think the low quality of the beer would have been a reason to boycott, not whatever happens on Instagram

    Initially misread that as BLOOD OF TRANS LIQUID FREEDOM TEA but that’s probably their next flavour.

      Less shocking here given they're commodifying a bourgeois revolution, something that was being done before all the founders were even dead IIRC.
