When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

if the founding fathers were brought to the present they would be disgusted by what they saw in the government today, staging another revolution to remove Trump and bring America back its roots by disenfranchising minorities, women, and poor people before bringing back slavery and ramping up indentured servitude for non-blacks

And of course, our thread namesake:



quote:

“THE PARTY’S OVER”

Thanks to Attorney General Barr, we may be seeing the wheels of justice turning against the Deep State perpetrators.

Finally.

Those trusted with positions of authority did their best to remove a lawfully-elected president from office. What they did was criminal. They were accustomed to getting their way and when (thankfully) things turned against them they abused their power and authority to get their way. What they did was treasonous. I’ve been saying this for quite a while now, but they need to be held accountable.

They’ve drunkenly abused their power. Turn out their lights, the party’s over.

LOCK THEM UP!

Garrison had a take like this too; odd how during Tinsley's 500 hours of research or whatever it was, it never occurred to him that Bernie would have to win an election before giving felons voting rights, meaning it'd be a pretty bad cynical voter-fraud strategy or whatever

it's amazing how bad they are at reading comprehension, so many comics that are easy to grasp get met with "what is this cartoon even trying to say?!?" or bizarre takes like that where they think it's about hillary when it's obv biden

meanwhile we got the c-spam brain trust over here doing their best to make muir comprehensible and we can sometimes even pull it off! :toot:
