Garrison actually some big misses here. “RINOs” in particular is an insult that reactionaries use! There were plenty of actual Republican Nazis in the 30s and40s so this cartoon could be pruned ino

I think there were more Democratic Party Nazis than Republican. Here’s one:

Henry Ford running for the US Senate

Henry Ford receiving the Grand Cross of the Supreme Order of the German Eagle in 1938.

Somewhere in my brain I remembered that Ford ran for the senate, but I had no idea that Wilson talked him into running. I would have missed that Jeopardy question lol.

Still, the best part of that cartoon is the suggestion that 19th century Democrats held Republicans in respectful regard. That’s quite a reading of history.

Your edit and the original are both equally fine.

They’re becoming self-aware!
Maybe there is actually hope for the world. Even Ben Garrison is realizing.

Im all of the above

It’s obviously how current day dems view the evolution

You mean the party of George Wallace was ok with some of its most powerful members prioritizing aryan purity and shit like that?

Lincoln made the white pride types too ashamed to be GOP until the Southern Strategy a hundred years later, and still that was a process that took decades to get them all to switch

I guess I’m not big on personal responsibility, because I just see this as a societal failure

The woman just repeatedly let down by every single opportunity that society had to keep her from being so vulnerable to a cult and misinformation

I remember seeing Loretta Lynn in concert like 20 years ago, and she kept going on rants about how we need prayer back in schools. Even in the middle of one song, just stopped singing and went back off on that. And I was like Jesus Christ, I can’t even escape this shit at a concert. I wondered if I would outlive that insanity. I was more optimistic back then

They don’t even pretend to hide their dishonesty.
