    The "omgz y u hate women so much obummer" thing has to be straight trolling, right? I mean, there's no actual way that people are for realsies upset about this entirely fabricated "issue," right?

    People get upset about whatever stupid thing some moron tells them to be upset about. There have been like half a dozen "issues" that right-wing dopes have been really truly upset about in the past six months that I never would have even known about if not for this thread. So thanks Otterloop, I guess.

    There are people who are for-real upset because they take what they've been told at face value. And they've been told that Obama's cabinet is 100% Harvard educated rich white men. This is easily debunked, but there are people who make no effort to confirm things.

    The whole "Why you hate Women, Obama" thing has been at least since the election primaries, where it was some seriously misguided attempt to make stupid women switch sides because the numbers pretty much said "Women Hate Republicans". I say stupid women because the entire plan assumed women are complete idiots who believe everything they read in random editorials and political cartoons. Sort of like how Palin was supposed to appeal to women.

    It's just going to keep happening because the alternative is actually passing legislation that isn't crazy tone deaf towards women, like this whole birth control fight.
  8. extarbags Already Beat BF's New Expansion

    Same basic premise as the Republicans' plan to win over latino voters, then.

    Honestly, the current "Obama hates women" meme is probably residual butt-hurt over the "binders full of women" stuff.
  10. extarbags Already Beat BF's New Expansion

    That's right, I remember now! It started right after the binders full of women. Thanks for the reminder.

    I imagine there's a secret room deep inside of FOX headquarters where a select group sit and scheme and plot all day what BS stories or theories they can throw against the wall to see what sticks.

    I'm just waiting for the day it's announced that a number of years back Fox News was actually secretly purchased by a consortium of people from 4chan or SomethingAwful and they've been trolling the public for lulz.

    I mean it's still a stupid point, but that's how you make the stupid point you're trying to make. As it is you might as well just have the text and not the art, or just say "sure are a lot of violent movies these days, huh?"

    Sexual assault: unlike stealing things out of a car, it is not considered by the general public as a justifiable crime in which to use deadly force in defense. A Good Cartoon about the current political climate and rape culture.

    Fuck you DbD is not enough.

    Fucker brought up the only politician who has fully inspired me as some kind of "gotcha" point. If he does it again I will go to a public event he's at and beat the shit out him. Wellstone wouldn't have liked that but talking about his memory would be political! Oh no, can't do that when talking about a fucking politician who was very involved politically with his constituents, who loved his guts.

    Disclaimer: I met Wellstone 2 months before he died -- I asked him about Iraq and he said he would take a stand against an invasion. I've also been to Camp Wellstone, a training course in grassroots political activism. Keith Ellison, the first Muslim in the House, spoke to us. You know how people remember where they were when Kennedy was assassinated? I'm like that with Wellstone. He's the only hero I've ever had. So I get mad as hell when people besmirch his memory.

    And, oh yeah, the guy who produced a series of comics about his characters beating up and shooting some black people for no reason other than they looked shady is now against beating up and shooting some people for no other reason than they looked shady.

    Fun fact: this coffee shop (the Forza where 4 police officers were shot in the head) is less than 1 mile from where I lived during college. The day of the shooting I was on a bus coming back from the airport and the bus was redirected cuz manhunt time. It is literally across the street from the airstrips at Joint Base Lewis McChord (whose residents support the many tactical clothing shops and hack tattoo artists that plague the area). When the suspect next encountered by police he was, surprise surprise, shot on sight. This place is the asshole of Tacoma which is that asshole of Washington and the only time it ever got on the news was for a massacre at a coffee-shop frequented by college students and commuters. It's all so fucking depressing. Why is this a cartoon?
