Because in English we read left to right so the first panel to be read is the left one. The joke always comes at the end aka the second panel from the left. Since here the intended joke is that the left has ideas which are a lot more complex than "we good, they bad"
55 words to describe what a punchline is. Your post rings true.
Right wing memes have an aspect that the left can’t really copy, which is the feeling of doing something “taboo” or against “society”. Whereas the left’s punchline is always “equality good racism bad” which is basically the status quo right now, so it’s inherently not as edgy or funny.
exactly, humor comes from that taboo. its why saying "someone in here is wearing a thong" is a funny thing to say in almost any group setting. basically laugher is a way for our bodies to correct that situation. thats why the three stooges are funny still.
So like... Arguably the contemporary liberals have the best policies and ideas -- things like healthcare reform and good union jobs and higher wages and protections from the government and corporations
And yet "we have a hard time recruiting"
???
I've never really had a problem convincing people to look out for themselves by electing good leaders with good ideas -- but that's probably because I'm not an insufferable tranny with blue hair who wants to rape lesbians while watching weeb shit
People tend to listen to you when you're not a giant faggot they wanna punch
what a great guy. Goebbels was a true centrist, he praised people on both the left and right. meanwhile the Chapos can't name a single person worth of praise on the opposite side of their political spectrum.
I remember a post here about some obese leftist who did an hour long video on why Stonetoss was so successful. About 20 minutes in (yes I watched it for that long AMA) he shows an example of one of his own """""""""""""funny""""""""""""" comics that he made on Twitter. This comic strip was about 15 tweets long and it featured some superhero with Destiny's face photoshopped on it.
Propaganda that converts and propaganda that normalizes are both propaganda. Conversion can happen by theory, but there's no better way to appeal the lizard brain than pretty slogans and an awe inspiring aesthetic.
Not even hiding the fact that they just want to brainwash everyone at this point lmao
It's more like building a foundation with shitty concrete, I don't want the movement to collapse because people realize halfway through they were lied to. I want actual converted leftists.
This is the only guy who gets it. The whole reason people are denying things like climate change is because we've already been told gross exaggerations in an effort to drive us to fix things early. This kind of thing is a gambit that has been proven not to pay off
Like telling kids that marijuana will kill them, but if they try it themselves, they learn that they were lied to, so they assume we were also lying about heroin.
Uhhh excuse me sweaty but it's not their fault they commit murder at an insanely high rate, it's actually your fault because 100 years ago your great grandfather called somebody a nigger and the police's fault for arresting black people for murder.
Look at argentina or other new world countries the communists infiltrated every facet of the government and people who murder and steal are just doing it not out of innate drive to succeed and subjugate others no. It’s because capitalism made them do it. And they get let out of jail and do it again
Now they just need to realize that the theory amounts to 3000 mutually reinforcing layers of self-serving bullshit in the name of killing people who have stuff in order to steal their stuff.

Kojima was right. It's all about the memes.

I was unaware the DPRK, USSR, and China were fearful of propaganda. Also everyone knows walls of hysterical text are the best ways to sway people.

3 TheDarthJeb 2019-12-14
Why not just post the actual meme instead of poorly copying it?
4 Host_of_the_johnson 2019-12-14
Because the actual meme has a no-no word in it.
3 TheDarthJeb 2019-12-14
I think the bigger issue is it's actually funny tbh.

3 professorshillphd 2019-12-14
It's more so your claims about Exxon. That company has been bankrolling climate denial since the 1970s along with every other oil company.
The idea Al Gore is to blame for Republican climate denial is completely divorced from reality.
