Political funny picture thread, part 3

[Kutnupe14]

You can't keep it balanced. Left can't meme. For every 12 you post, maybe one is kinda funny. The pro-Trump funny ratio isn't perfect either. I'd estimate at most 2:1. As fast as they post 'em, you just can't keep up.

Nope, I can't keep up. And I'll point out that humor is subjective, and one cannot be the universal arbiter of what is "funny" based on their personal opinion; especially if their politics run contrary to the things they deem as "unfunny." Regardless, my memes regardless of how one views them, seem the more likely, despite lack in volume, to invite discussion.

Just my personal observation, but speaking in very general terms, the left meme’s mostly seem to be cartoony sketches that are way overblown charicatures of President Trump. Whereas a lot of right-wing memes seem to be real pictures with quotes from liberal politicians or facts about whatever issue the meme is addressing.

Like Kut’s last 12 posts for example. 12 out of 12 are outlandish cartoons of who the left thinks the President is and what they think his supporters are like. No facts. No real statements. Just overblown characterizations designed to make him look like as bad as possible. It’s almost like the left doesn’t have a whole lot of real ammunition to use against him, so they have to make up “funny” stuff about him.

Obviously I’m not saying the right doesn’t do that as well (that’s for you, Kut). I’m just saying, in my opinion, a lot of right meme’s are based on facts. A lot of left meme’s aren’t. That is all. Carry on.

So you want more of this?

Yes I know they’re out there, Kut. I said as much in my post.

It was just a trend I noticed. Thank you for confirming it.

Yeah, but what makes it funny is the truthfulness behind the meme. And that's why not all the non-progressive memes are funny. There are some delusional people on the right too. But the progressives are in really big trouble now. They're all delusional idiots like Peter Fonda. That dude is flat out nuts. So the memes I find most funny are the ones that poke fun at that. The ones which portray Trump as some kind of superhero just don't have that ring of truth to them.

Now that one was kinda funny.

Like I said, the ring of truth behind the meme is what makes it funny. And the most effective memes are the ones that poke fun at the real things progressives actually say that's crazy.

You bring up a good point; which raises a question. Does the 1.2 gallon flush work as well for you as the old standard flush; or do you see yourself flushing twice for the same job?

Repeatedly

At times I wonder if the "repeated" flush technique is a regional dilemma that may reflect voter opinions?

 

[indiucky]

Depends who is in the set of "everybody". I'd guess the old progressives who don't use social media and watch nothing but CNN/MSNBC don't know.

Yeah...A lot of that on Twitter yesterday....They were still posting it saying "OMG...Look what Trump is doing to these kids." and they would get taken to task by the uneducated, gun toting, Trump deplorables....

Yes PLEASE...Surely there is nothing wrong with loving the poorly educated right? That covers a wide swath of the world...College is very expensive and many folks of all races can't afford it....

You'll probably pay at least $57,000 to send your kid to college

I'm a College drop out...Proud of what I have accomplished in spite of my lack of education...At least he's honest...I've never seen a SINGLE Democrat or MSM Talking Head EVER refer to the African American or Hispanic Democrat voters as "unsophisticated" or "uneducated" yet I hear that term tossed around all of the time about white voters...I guess I should consider that part of my "privilege" that comes with my scrawny white legs (which are banned from being shown in a breech cloth on INGO...Curse you Kirk!!!!).

Democrats have been counting on the uneducated, some of them not even knowing a lick of English and with very little education for years and they act like they are the more "sophisticated" party...Democrats LOVE uneducated voters...As long as they are not white...They hate those white uneducated voters with a passion...Trump loves us rubes...God bless him for it.....

The full quote:
"We won the evangelicals. We won with young. We won with old. We won with highly educated. We won with poorly educated. I love the poorly educated."

Trump often says he "loves" the last item in a list; if the last in the list was "pick-up truck drivers" he would probably say he loves pick-up drivers. It's a part of his speech pattern as was President Obama's long pauses while he searched for the correct word.

I'll leave it to each person to decide if this was taken out of context.

This is spot on. I am very concerned about the repercussions of people believing the false, manufactured narratives that the media continues to push. Their lies and irresponsible whipping up of emotional frenzy about "the children" at the border has already resulted in death threats against the president's youngest son and children of other government officials and ICE agents. I am concerned that someone is going to get hurt. They are rabidly unhinged because they lost the 2016 presidential election. All they care about is power and getting rid of President Trump, and do not care who gets hurt in their pursuit of it or how much it damages this country and its institutions. A disgusting and very dangerous "cult."

Can't wait for 2020 for some new material...

I remember when journalists were proud of being unbiased in their reporting of "who, what, when, where and why". I think real journalists would still be, but there just aren't very many real journalists at those networks. They only hire fake, very biased propaganda spreaders.

Yeah. But the meme is still funny. One of the very few that are funny.
