    Putting ideology (“voting legitimizes the illegitimate authority”) over pragmatism is goofy IMO. Like, whether you view the state as legitimate or not, in the here-and-now it exists and has power, giving up your influence because you don’t like it is counterproductive.

    Also this post reeks of Sovereign Citizen nonsense, “I do not consent to being ruled” okay well you are, might as well have a say in the rules.



  • 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.

    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.”
