Every imagined threat about socialism is modeled after real things that happened under capitalism

I went to that cartoonist's site to see his other work and I say this with as much disrespect as possible: this is one of his better pieces.

Conservatives are just incapable of being funny or incisive.

I was just gonna say that is some rank amateurish cartooning. Forget about lacking an editorial cartoonist's wit, it's mediocre just from a technical drawing perspective.

Speaking as someone who was in lower Manhattan on 9/11, I so hope Mamdani wins in a landslide and is a successful mayor.

Also, the guys who did 9/11 were the people we trained, armed, and funded to beat socialism.

A plane marked with communism about to hit a bastion of capitalism, with a hashtag of socialism. This is so incorrect you almost forget how offensive it is.

It's been true for 150 years that whenever you have nothing to criticize about someone's political positions, you just call them a communist. This has been a hallmark of American politics since the 1870s.

Much like how misogynists believe what women want is superiority rather than equity because that's what misogynists want.

It rules so hard that you can't tell the difference between the republican or the Democrat shrieking at the top of their lungs "he's a communist muslim!!!!" because a dude dared to say that rent and grocery prices are too high and people are suffering.

Apologies for jumping in uninvited but fuck these fuckers into the fucking sun for this. 9/11 may have been almost a quarter century ago but it's still a trauma and tragedy and a lot of people are still Islamophobic ghouls.

Look, if Mamdani is elected and makes the bus free, that will be the same as 9/11.

Just look at how socialism worked in these communist countries!! Do you want a capitalist foreign power to place an embargo on us and overthrow our democratically elected socialist leader?! Because that's what happens!!

Americans have never wanted to pay the taxes required to fund an egalitarian society. We, as a nation, are stingy with other Americans, who we believe are freeloaders and sponges.

It's balanced out by the generosity of Americans when it comes to sending weapons to countries all around the world, either kinetically or by fedex.
