Don’t take a risk! Don’t take a chance! Don’t say a thing. Just pretend to care by joining a lame demonstration of protest that will not change a goddamn thing.
Okay, not entirely consequence-free for our cartoonists. Nor for those of us who don't want to play Duopoly any longer ..read more

Is it our elected officials -- I hesitate to call them leaders any longer -- or is it us, propagandized by our disemboweled corporate media and the pathetic imposters trying to replace them?
(by Angel Boligan, El Universal, Mexico City)
Benjamin Kikkert (Cartoon Movement) is Dutch, but this cartoon works whether you live in a state-controlled media world or not, because “state control” can be privatized, as we’re certainly seen in this nation.

And some of you think it's going to be different -- as in 'better' or 'worse' -- by re-electing one of these two Bozos. No. Hard pass. Elect a clown, get a circus. Or in this case, a shitshow (act two ..read more

As previously mentioned, I've seen this one. And it's not worth rewatching.
Our Caucasian forebearers also suffer under the same gerontocracy/oligarchy/plutocracy. Just don't call it a democracy, here or there. The people know better.
Dementia doesn't seem to be the main problem with our judicial branch.
In light of the nation's mostly-inaccessible mental health resources, poor Elmo was conscripted into therapist duty. Another overworked and underpaid laborer in the Land of the Free.

“Whoever fights with monsters should see to it that he does not become a monster in the process. And when you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.” — Friedrich Nietzche
We’ve been volunteering to fight monsters since the days when (William) McKinley -- with the encouragement of Joseph Pulitzer and W. R. Hearst -- began railing against Spain for its treatment of Cuba.
Possibly earlier, if you count our crusade to help liberate the Tejanos and a whole bunch of other people from Mexico.

Democratic-aligned pundits and legal experts argue that removing Donald Trump from the presidential ballot, as the Colorado Supreme Court and Maine’s Secretary of State recently decided to do and 12 other states are considering, is not inherently undemocratic because -- even though it takes one major presidential candidate off the ballot in a two-party system -- it’s permitted under an obscure section of the 14th Amendment. Unfortunately, the Constitution hasn’t always been a charter that upheld the highest ideals of democratic participation.
