That’s terrible swinging posture.

don’t mind if I do

Yeah, so if someone is telling me not to vote and they aren’t currently revolting, I’m discounting them as counterproductive at best.

I’m sorry but discouraging electoral participation is extremely dumb. Until the revolution comes, that’s how change happens.

What was that one quote about Einstein’s brain?

“I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.”― Stephen Jay Gould, The Panda’s Thumb: More Reflections in Natural History

that’s what did it for me.

No, I get it, I think it’s wrong.

Their narrative is that she was driving her car at them, her being unarmed is either irrelevant (because they don’t claim she was attacking with a weapon) or incorrect (if the vehicle is a weapon.)

So again, just repeating their narrative of “an unarmed woman was trying to kill an agent” without major transformation is just repeating their narrative. ICE claims she was attempting to kill, and this meme portrays her as someone about to kill. No satire or parody, it’s not emasculating because it’s literally just reinforcing their claims. They claim she was a danger and a threat, this meme portrays her as a danger and a threat and the ICE nazi in imminent danger.

Instead of just flipping it and having ICE being the one hunting down a defenseless person trying to run away, which would make sense and not thoughtlessly reinforce the ICE narrative.

dae introverted??

And what way is that? Because it seems to me like just repeating, not satirizing or parodying.

It’s making fun of them by just… repeating their narrative?

Yes, and the meme is reinforcing that narrative.

ICE isn’t the one killing unarmed women?

Darth Vader was the one killing in that scene.

what an extremely lazy comic, “weekends good, unions good” and reusing the same panel 4 times. Couldn’t even contrive a scenario to share your opinion with a setup and punchline. And if you really want to get nitpicky, it’s not even correct because blue says “thank god it’s the weekend,” not “thank god for weekends.”

The insult isn’t being gay, the insult is being a hypocrite.

Do you actually know if he is gay, and therefore a hypocrite? Or are you just calling him gay because it would be funny?

Either way, the insult is still being gay. They wouldn’t call his wife a beard if it wasn’t a bad thing. Maybe you use homophobia even against a target you think is valid. I mean, if he is such a bad guy, then surely his actions are enough to use against him and not make up random grade school nonsense? Even if he was a gay hypocrite, that’s irrelevant to why he’s bad.

All of that is on top of the fact that by calling every homophobe gay, you are blaming homophobia on gay people.

I believe you

haha the joke is that he is gay, which is a bad thing because otherwise it wouldn’t be an insult. i am very smart

Being attracted to feminine / masculine individuals as opposed to women / men is far more common

That’s still bisexual though.

whatever chode, you’re entitled to your delusions

I’m deluded because I… *don’t* like Yoko’s music? You are truly blinded by hate.

well, it could be because everything she touched got demonstrably worse when she contributed. Huh…?

Not really? Sorry you don’t like Lennon’s post-Beatles career, but he would take great umbrage to you saying she “ruined” him.

as a Yoko Fan

I’m actually not, just because I’m not a Yoko Hater doesn’t mean I like her.

Artistically you’re going to say she added something GOOD to the performance?

Not at all, it’s rare for me to enjoy experimental music, I can just compartmentalize Yoko the artist and not try and pathologize her as banshee that seeks to ruin everything she touches because she makes noises I don’t like.

it’s a sure sign of someone who’s out there to ruin it for other people.

It’s not, you’re assigning motive based on how it makes you feel. She’s made experimental/avant garde music before without trying to “ruin” someone else’s fun, so the explanation with the least assumptions is that she simply felt like adding that to the mix.

Why is the narrative with Yoko Ono always that she’s trying to “ruin” something?
