I've been trying to find that bit and my apparently poor googling techniques are finding nothing. Do you mind sharing an article or passage? (Just got back from a vacation with some fairly religious family members who were goddamn tiring, would be nice to be able to cite this next time.)
Everything's a joke, but nothing is. Everything's ironic, but also everything's serious. Jokes are meant to make light of situations, but you can't make them about serious stuff. It's Schrödinger's comedy, a true definition of Metarcasm: Everything real is satire and every satire is genuine.
My4 Yo found one of those in a bathroom and i was so pissed. And i couldnt really explain to her why she “couldn’t have the comic.” I told her it wasn’t a nice thing and NOBODY shpuld be reading it.
THE YOUTH PASTOR PREGNANCY ABORTIONS FOR MY LITTLE SUSIE ARE JUST FINE.
It's all the other little whores who are enjoying sex or may die from their pregnancies that we really worry about. Those babies need to be saved for Jesus.
Wow, I don't even know how to process this. The dumbass conservatives are getting so confused about life they're actually creating sarcastic comics about their way of thinking unintentionally.
In case you haven't heard of them, chick tracts have been hilariously bad since before the Internet. They are plentiful, and at least as insane as this comic here. You could dedicate a sub to them. One of my favorites was one 'in the near future' where non-christian children were compared to Hitler youth.
For educational purposes, go watch Fox News for an hour (WARNING: more than 90 minutes can cause brain damage). I absolutely guarantee you will hear the same phrase, with the same wording, 20-200 times (sometimes they are more emphatic depending on the subject) within that hour. If you repeat it enough times, some people will take it as hard fact.
I know that this is serious, but it's so bad is good.
It has become the parody of a parody, this comic has so many layers of irony that transcends politics
Imagine if we just leaned into their wacky right-wing conception of pro-choice and were like "yeah, our endgame is to have as many abortions as possible per capita." Their heads would explode lol
Gotta look at it the other way to trigger them. A vasectomy is an automated instantaneous abortion. You're so pro-abortion that you're causing them every single time you have sex!
I wouldn't be upset, I'd just be a little disappointed. If you're gonna believe in God, there are better ideas out there than that, but I wouldn't be upset about it unless the usual beliefs and actions tag along too.
Fuck, whenever i see this dude art am like, damn bro these look really good . His art is better than most comic artists i saw and yet it's used for utter garbage. How saddening....
Yes, there’s a whole series of them. If they were satire, I’d adore them. They’re not satire so I merely love them. The Biden “ain’t black” ones are my favorite.
It is incredibly common for political comments to exaggerate stuff as a form of humor. It happens on both sides. This comment section doesn't seem to know that
That would imply that the artist is willing to fun of some part of his ideology. But a lot of his other comics can be boiled down to the usual "I, the conservative chad, destroy the screaming nonsensifal leftist".
They do have a sort of "so bad its good" vibe to them that I doubt is intentional. Like the biden sucking the blackness out of a girl one or him getting 3 women pregnant Kenshiro style. Or in a meta level, making a "gas prices are good but everything else sucks now and its the left's fault" comic almost immediately after making a "everything sucks now because gas prices are too high and its the left's fault" comic
I think there's some point in exaggerating things where it changes the meaning of exaggeration. At first this cartoon seemed to me like a satire of conservatives, mocking their exaggeration by exaggerating it even more.
Imo the problem with this being "right wing humor" is not that right winger actively believe what it depicts, but rather that they do not perceive how it's so enormously stupid that it even ridicules right wing ideas. (Because here, you're like "hey, leftist harassing their child like right wingers do is so absurd and implausible, haha").
Of course they could be very self-aware to the point that they could laugh at their own ideas, but i sincerely doubt there are much people able to do that in any political spectrum.
Yes, but one side makes jokes on them, cause there believe in a obviously misanthropic view of live, that will harm themselves, and cause there believe in a imaginary friend, who says them they should prefer an really old book full of contradictions instead of science, and ....
The other side is far away from perfect and not always right, but this is not on the same level.
